Mayra Caballero

Mayra Caballero serves as a key procurement professional within the SFLC Procurement Branch 2 (70Z085) of the U.S. Coast Guard, part of the Department of Homeland Security. She manages acquisition programs centered on the sustainment, repair, and modernization of maritime vessels and naval infrastructure, ensuring operational readiness for coastal and open-ocean missions. Her responsibilities include planning, soliciting, and awarding contracts for industrial equipment and marine support systems critical to cutter fleet lifecycle management. She specializes in complex procurement actions requiring technical oversight of heavy machinery and marine industrial systems, aligning acquisitions with Coast Guard strategic modernization goals. Caballero maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of industrial and marine service contractors, including ROLLS-ROYCE SOLUTIONS AMERICA INC, VIGOR MARINE LLC, JAG INDUSTRIAL SERVICES, INC, G I INDUSTRIAL-MARINE, LLC, and L1 ENTERPRISES INCORPORATED. These partnerships reflect a focus on experienced vendors capable of delivering specialized marine maintenance, propulsion system support, and heavy industrial fabrication services. Her procurement approach emphasizes long-term vendor reliability, technical compliance, and performance-based contracting standards tailored to the demanding operational environment of maritime defense assets. She demonstrates a strong commitment to small business participation, with 60% of her acquisitions structured as total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5. This pattern underscores a deliberate strategy to foster competition and capacity building among qualified small industrial contractors, particularly those with expertise in marine and heavy equipment services. Her contracting patterns consistently prioritize socioeconomic goals without compromising mission-critical performance requirements. Her procurement activity is exclusively focused on NAICS 333924—Industrial Truck, Tractor, Trailer, and Stacker Machinery Manufacturing—reflecting deep specialization in the acquisition of material handling systems, marine lift equipment, and specialized industrial vehicles integral to vessel maintenance and logistics operations. Her expertise lies in procuring technically complex, mission-critical machinery that supports the Coast Guard’s enduring fleet sustainment mission.
