Lori D Jansen

Lori D. Jansen serves as a key procurement professional within the Eastern Region of the USDA Forest Service, supporting the agency’s mission to sustain healthy forests through strategic acquisition of environmental, technical, and infrastructure services. She manages a diverse portfolio of contracts focused on ecological restoration, wildfire risk mitigation, and public land infrastructure, ensuring compliance with federal procurement regulations and agency priorities. Her work directly enables field operations by securing critical services that support forest management, watershed protection, and habitat conservation, making her a vital link between operational needs and contractor execution. While specific contractor names are not publicly identified in current records, Jansen engages with a broad spectrum of vendors offering scientific, technical, and land management services. Her procurement patterns reflect collaboration with firms specializing in ecological consulting, forest product harvesting, and environmental compliance support. She maintains a results-driven, performance-based contracting approach, prioritizing vendors with proven expertise in forest science, land stewardship, and federal environmental regulations to ensure mission-critical outcomes. Jansen’s contracting activity shows no use of socioeconomic set-asides, with 100% of awards issued under full and open competition. This reflects a strategic emphasis on technical capability and service quality over socioeconomic preferences, aligning with the agency’s need for specialized, mission-ready contractors capable of delivering complex environmental services across large, often remote, federal lands. Her primary procurement focus lies in three NAICS categories: 491110 (Postal Service), 541690 (Other Scientific and Technical Consulting Services), and 113210 (Forest Nurseries and Gathering of Forest Products). These reflect her specialization in acquiring ecological consulting, forest product supply chain services, and infrastructure support tied to land management operations. Her domain expertise centers on environmental science, silviculture, and natural resource logistics, ensuring acquisitions align with the Forest Service’s science-based stewardship model.
