Oscar Orozco serves as a primary procurement lead for Sat Team 1 FWS within the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, overseeing the acquisition of critical operational and ecological support services essential to habitat conservation and wildlife management. He manages a diverse portfolio of contracts aligned with the agency’s mission to sustain native species and restore ecosystems, focusing on environmental compliance, field infrastructure, and technical support. His acquisitions typically include environmental consulting, land management services, equipment maintenance, and specialized field operations, ensuring that field teams have the resources needed to execute federal conservation mandates under the National Environmental Policy Act and Endangered Species Act. Orozco maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of contractors including AirSep Corporation, Merkel & Associates, Inc., West Coast Dirt Works LLC, Boh Environmental, L.L.C., and Bacon-Universal Company, Inc. These partnerships reflect a blend of environmental engineering, land disturbance services, and industrial equipment maintenance expertise. His procurement approach emphasizes reliability, regulatory alignment, and field-ready solutions, fostering long-term vendor collaborations grounded in technical proficiency and compliance with federal environmental standards. His contracting patterns reveal a strong emphasis on small business participation, with nearly half of all awards structured as Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5.
