Leilani Sandle

Leilani Sandle supports the U.S. Coast Guard’s LOG-9 procurement mission by managing acquisition strategies for critical life-cycle support services that sustain shore-based and maritime operational readiness. She oversees contracts for facility maintenance, lodging, and mission-critical logistics, ensuring that Coast Guard personnel have secure, habitable, and fully functional environments across the nation’s coastal and inland waterways. Her work directly enables training, tactical operations, and environmental compliance through timely and compliant procurement actions aligned with federal acquisition regulations. Sandle maintains strong, recurring relationships with key contractors including GILMAN CORPORATION THE, FRONTLINE ENTERPRISES LLC, ISN ALLIANCE LLC, S3 SOLUTIONS ONE LLC, and FAZTEC INDUSTRIES INC. These partnerships reflect a preference for vendors capable of delivering integrated facility services, specialized maintenance, and logistical support under performance-based contracting frameworks. Her procurement approach emphasizes reliability, scalability, and compliance, fostering long-term vendor collaboration to meet mission-critical demands with minimal disruption. Her contracting patterns demonstrate a robust commitment to small business participation, with 75.6% of awards structured as total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5. This reflects a deliberate strategy to prioritize small business contractors across socioeconomic categories, including service-disabled veteran-owned, woman-owned, and HUBZone firms, reinforcing the Coast Guard’s mandate to expand economic opportunity while enhancing supply chain resilience. The overwhelming focus of her portfolio is on NAICS 721110—Hotels (except Casino Hotels) and Motels—indicating primary procurement of lodging and transient housing services for personnel deployed in remote or rotational assignments. Secondary categories include nondurable goods wholesale distribution and transit services, underscoring her expertise in managing diverse, mission-enabling supply chains that support both daily operations and emergency response readiness.
