Roderious Harmon

Roderious Harmon serves as a key procurement lead within the U.S. Coast Guard’s SFLC Procurement Branch 2 (70Z085), responsible for managing complex acquisitions supporting the sustainment, modernization, and lifecycle management of the Coast Guard’s fleet of cutters and maritime vessels. His work directly enables operational readiness across coastal, offshore, and open-ocean missions by overseeing contracts for shipbuilding, repair, and critical naval infrastructure upgrades. Harmon specializes in performance-based, full-spectrum maritime acquisition strategies, with a focus on long-term maintenance contracts, vessel modernization programs, and integrated marine systems procurement aligned with Coast Guard strategic readiness goals. Harmon maintains enduring relationships with a core group of industry partners, including ROLLS-ROYCE SOLUTIONS AMERICA INC, VIGOR MARINE LLC, JAG INDUSTRIAL SERVICES, INC, G I INDUSTRIAL-MARINE, LLC, and L1 ENTERPRISES INCORPORATED. These contractors provide specialized shipyard services, propulsion system integration, structural repairs, and marine industrial support critical to vessel availability and mission continuity. His procurement approach emphasizes performance metrics, quality assurance, and sustained vendor collaboration, fostering long-term partnerships built on technical reliability and compliance with naval engineering standards. Harmon exhibits a strong, consistent commitment to socioeconomic contracting, with 95% of his acquisitions structured as Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5. This reflects a deliberate strategy to prioritize small business participation, ensuring that qualified small entities—particularly those with maritime industrial expertise—have meaningful access to Coast Guard procurement opportunities. His patterns demonstrate a robust alignment with the federal government’s goal of fostering a resilient, diverse supplier base within the maritime defense sector. His procurement focus is overwhelmingly centered on NAICS 336611 (Ship Building and Repairing), encompassing dry-dock operations, hull fabrication, propulsion system overhauls, and integrated marine electronics installation. He also manages limited acquisitions under NAICS 333923 for specialized marine lifting and hoisting systems. Harmon’s technical domain expertise lies in naval architecture, vessel maintenance cycles, and compliance with U.S. Coast Guard and Navy shipbuilding standards, ensuring all procurements meet stringent safety, durability, and mission-critical performance requirements.
