Samuel Hahn

Samuel Hahn serves as a key procurement professional within the Medicine Bow–Routt National Forest, supporting the U.S. Forest Service’s mission of ecological stewardship and operational resilience. He manages contracting activities focused on maintaining infrastructure integrity and ensuring safe, functional public lands through specialized service acquisitions. His work directly enables field operations by securing essential support services critical to post-fire recovery, habitat conservation, and facility maintenance. Hahn primarily handles service-based procurements under the Federal Acquisition Regulation, with a consistent emphasis on performance-based contracting and mission-aligned vendor delivery. Hahn maintains a close working relationship with ANSON EXCAVATING & PIPE, INC., a primary contractor for site-specific maintenance and land management support services. His contracting patterns reflect a preference for established, locally rooted vendors with demonstrated capacity in environmental compliance and terrain-specific operations. These partnerships are characterized by repeat engagement, performance-based evaluations, and a focus on reliability in remote, high-risk operational environments. Hahn demonstrates a full commitment to small business participation, with 100% of his acquisitions structured as total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5. This reflects a deliberate strategy to prioritize economically disadvantaged and community-based enterprises, aligning with the Department of Agriculture’s broader goals of rural economic development and equitable contracting access. His portfolio consistently channels opportunities to small businesses without further socioeconomic sub-set-asides, emphasizing broad-based small business inclusion. His procurement focus is exclusively centered on NAICS 561720, Janitorial Services, which in this context encompasses specialized environmental cleaning, debris removal, trail and facility sanitation, and post-disturbance site remediation. These services are not traditional commercial janitorial tasks but are mission-critical ecological maintenance functions tied to wildfire recovery, visitor safety, and habitat protection. Hahn’s expertise lies in defining performance metrics that align janitorial and custodial services with natural resource management objectives.
