Rosalie H Ignacio

Rosalie Ignacio serves as a key procurement professional within the U.S. Coast Guard’s SFLC Procurement Branch 2 (70Z085), where she manages critical acquisitions supporting the sustainment, modernization, and lifecycle management of the Coast Guard’s fleet of cutters and maritime vessels. Her responsibilities encompass the full spectrum of contracting activities for shipbuilding, repair, and naval infrastructure maintenance, ensuring operational readiness across coastal, offshore, and open-ocean missions. She routinely handles complex, high-stakes contracts under FAR Part 13 and Part 15 procedures, with a focus on performance-based acquisition strategies that prioritize mission-critical outcomes and long-term vessel reliability. Ignacio maintains strong, ongoing relationships with core industrial partners 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 preference for established shipyard and marine industrial contractors with proven expertise in naval vessel maintenance, propulsion system integration, and structural refurbishment. Her contracting approach emphasizes vendor reliability, technical capability, and past performance, fostering long-term collaboration with contractors who demonstrate consistent compliance with Coast Guard quality and safety standards. While the majority of her acquisitions are conducted as unrestricted procurements, Ignacio demonstrates a meaningful commitment to small business participation, with approximately one-third of her awards structured as Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5. A smaller but consistent portion supports HUBZone firms, reflecting a strategic effort to leverage geographic and socioeconomic advantages in the marine industrial base. Her contracting patterns align with broader Department of Homeland Security goals to strengthen domestic maritime industrial capacity. Her primary technical domain centers on NAICS 336611 (Ship Building and Repairing), with a secondary focus on engineering services under NAICS 541330. She procures specialized marine systems, hull repairs, propulsion upgrades, and naval architecture services, demonstrating deep familiarity with Coast Guard vessel specifications, dry-dock protocols, and maritime engineering standards.
