Peyton Truban

Peyton Truban serves as a primary procurement lead within C and T Supply Chain, a division of the Defense Logistics Agency Troop Support under the Department of Defense. Responsible for managing mission-critical acquisitions of specialized textile and apparel systems, Truban ensures the timely delivery of tactical gear essential to troop readiness, including protective apparel, hydration systems, headwear, and fabric components used in body armor and field equipment. Their work directly supports operational sustainability across global deployment environments, requiring precise alignment with military specifications and supply chain resilience standards. Truban handles complex solicitations under FAR Part 13 and Part 15, often coordinating with technical evaluators and logistics planners to meet urgent operational requirements. While specific contractor relationships are not currently available, Truban’s procurement approach emphasizes a balanced vendor ecosystem, engaging both large-tier manufacturers and small business suppliers with proven capabilities in textile engineering and military-grade production. The contracting pattern reflects a deliberate effort to maintain competitive bidding while fostering long-term partnerships with vendors possessing specialized certifications and compliance with MIL-SPEC standards for durability, flame resistance, and ergonomic design. Truban exhibits a strong commitment to socioeconomic contracting, with half of all procurements structured as total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5, and the other half open to full and open competition. This dual strategy ensures robust market participation while actively advancing opportunities for small, disadvantaged, and veteran-owned businesses capable of meeting stringent defense quality requirements. Their primary focus lies in NAICS 314120 (Curtain and Linen Mills) and 339950 (Sign Manufacturing), reflecting a unique blend of textile fabrication expertise and durable material signage applications for military installations and tactical environments. Truban’s domain knowledge spans technical textile performance, material certification, and the integration of high-visibility and camouflaged fabric systems into standardized issue equipment.
