Sandra Maverick

Sandra Maverick serves as a key procurement lead within the Pacific Northwest Regional Office of the U.S. Forest Service, where she manages mission-critical acquisitions to support forest management, infrastructure maintenance, and environmental stewardship across remote and ecologically sensitive landscapes. Her responsibilities include planning, soliciting, and administering contracts for engineering, environmental consulting, and operational support services essential to sustaining public lands. She ensures compliance with federal acquisition regulations while aligning procurements with the agency’s strategic goals of ecological integrity, public safety, and administrative resilience. Her portfolio primarily consists of professional services contracts requiring technical expertise in natural resource management and civil engineering. Maverick maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of specialized contractors, including TRIPLE C-THE A & E GROUP LLC, GREAT WEST ENGINEERING INC, GDM-AE, INC., THOMAS DEAN & HOSKINS INC, and TERRAPHASE ENGINEERING INC. These firms are frequently selected for their proven capacity in delivering engineering design, environmental impact assessments, trail and road infrastructure support, and habitat restoration services. Her contracting approach emphasizes long-term vendor partnerships built on technical reliability, regulatory compliance, and field-level responsiveness, often resulting in repeat engagements across multiple fiscal cycles. Maverick’s procurement pattern reflects a strong preference for open competition, with 100% of her awards issued under no set-aside designation. This indicates a focus on selecting the most qualified firms regardless of socioeconomic status, prioritizing technical capability and operational readiness over socioeconomic targeting. While small business participation is not formally incentivized in her portfolio, she ensures fair and transparent competition that remains accessible to all qualified vendors. Her acquisitions are centered on professional services related to civil engineering, environmental assessment, land management support, and infrastructure development. These contracts typically fall under NAICS categories such as 541330 (Engineering Services), 541620 (Environmental Consulting), and 541390 (Other Scientific and Technical Consulting Services), reflecting deep expertise in terrestrial ecosystem management and federal land use compliance.
