Leonyce J. Moses supports the procurement mission of the Eastern Region USDA Forest Service by managing acquisitions critical to ecological stewardship and infrastructure resilience. Though her official title is not publicly listed, her role centers on administering contracts that enable forest management, wildfire mitigation, and habitat restoration activities. She handles a diverse portfolio of service-based acquisitions, including professional training, land management support, and civil construction, ensuring alignment with federal environmental mandates and operational priorities. Her work directly facilitates the agency’s ability to maintain public lands, protect watersheds, and modernize forest infrastructure through compliant, mission-driven contracting. Moses collaborates with a broad spectrum of vendors, including specialized forestry contractors, environmental consultants, and construction firms experienced in federal land operations. While specific contractor names are not available, her procurement patterns indicate consistent engagement with firms capable of delivering technical services such as soil preparation, prescribed burning support, and trail or road construction under the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) framework. Her working relationships reflect a preference for vendors with demonstrated expertise in federal environmental compliance and field-based execution, often requiring certified labor and equipment standards. Her contracting approach prioritizes economic inclusion, with 77.8% of acquisitions awarded without set-asides and 22.2% reserved for total small business participation under FAR 19.5. This reflects a balanced commitment to broad competition while actively supporting small business engagement across multiple socioeconomic categories, including Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses and HUBZone firms, consistent with USDA’s broader socioeconomic goals. Her primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 611430 (professional and management development training), supporting workforce capacity in ecological practices, and NAICS 115112 and 115310, which cover soil preparation and forestry support services. She also oversees construction-related contracts under NAICS 237310, indicating expertise in managing civil works on federal forest lands. Her domain expertise spans environmental compliance, land management operations, and sustainable infrastructure development within the federal forestry context.
