Katelyn Miller

Katelyn Miller serves as a Contracting Officer’s Representative (COR) for the USDA Forest Service, providing technical oversight and procurement guidance for mission-critical support services. In this role, she ensures contractor performance aligns with operational requirements for forest and grassland management, particularly in remote and high-risk environments. Her responsibilities include evaluating technical proposals, monitoring contract deliverables, and coordinating with field personnel to validate service quality. Miller specializes in non-clinical, facility and infrastructure support contracts, with a focus on janitorial and custodial services essential to maintaining operational readiness at remote ranger stations, visitor centers, and wildfire response hubs. Miller maintains consistent working relationships with a select group of small business contractors, including ACI FEDERAL INC, ONE STOP RECRUITING LLC, GONDO ROY E MD, THE LOCUMS CO, LLC, and AMD INTERNATIONAL TECHNOLOGIES LLC. These partnerships reflect a preference for agile, locally responsive vendors capable of delivering tailored janitorial and facility maintenance services under challenging terrain and weather conditions. Her collaborative approach emphasizes performance-based outcomes, with regular site evaluations and compliance reviews to ensure adherence to federal environmental and safety standards. Miller’s procurement portfolio is exclusively designated for small business set-asides under FAR 19.5, reflecting a firm commitment to socioeconomic inclusion and rural economic development. All awards are structured to prioritize small business participation, with no large business contracts issued under her purview. This approach supports the Forest Service’s broader goal of empowering local enterprises to contribute to federal land stewardship. Her technical domain is narrowly focused on NAICS 561720 (Janitorial Services), encompassing routine cleaning, waste disposal, sanitization, and facility upkeep for federal facilities across diverse ecological zones. She possesses deep expertise in procuring services that sustain operational continuity in areas with limited infrastructure, ensuring compliance with USDA environmental protocols and public health standards.
