Kyler Madison

Kyler Madison serves as the primary procurement lead for the SFLC Procurement Branch 1 (70Z080) within the U.S. Coast Guard’s Department of Homeland Security, overseeing the acquisition of critical maritime infrastructure and vessel sustainment services. Responsible for managing the full lifecycle of contracts supporting cutter modernization, dry dock overhauls, and propulsion system upgrades, Madison ensures alignment with the Coast Guard’s operational readiness goals. Their portfolio encompasses shipbuilding, maintenance, and specialized marine services essential for coastal and open-ocean missions, with a focus on long-term asset lifecycle management and technical compliance under federal acquisition regulations. Madison maintains consistent, high-volume working relationships with key industrial partners including Fairbanks Morse, LLC for marine propulsion systems, Thoma-Sea Marine Constructors, L.L.C. for vessel construction and repair, Bay Ship & Yacht Co for dry docking and structural upgrades, Automatic Coating Limited USA for corrosion protection, and Technico Corporation for technical support services. These partnerships reflect a preference for experienced, defense-capable contractors with proven track records in naval vessel maintenance and marine engineering, fostering long-term collaboration grounded in technical precision and regulatory adherence. Madison exhibits an unwavering commitment to small business participation, directing 100% of eligible acquisitions toward total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5. This pattern underscores a strategic emphasis on cultivating a resilient supplier base of qualified small firms capable of delivering specialized maritime services, reinforcing the agency’s socioeconomic goals while enhancing competition and innovation in niche technical domains. The procurement focus centers on NAICS codes 488310 (Port and Harbor Operations), 336999 (All Other Transportation Equipment Manufacturing), 561790 (Other Services to Buildings and Dwellings), and 488320 (Marine Cargo Handling), reflecting a broad but targeted scope in marine logistics, vessel fabrication, and facility support services. Madison’s expertise lies in procuring complex, technically demanding marine systems requiring stringent compliance with Coast Guard safety and environmental standards.
