Shannon Wrobel

Shannon Wrobel serves as a key procurement specialist within the USDA Forest Service’s CSA East 8 unit, supporting operational maintenance and facility management initiatives across national forests and grasslands. Responsible for managing acquisitions aligned with environmental compliance, infrastructure preservation, and public access enhancements, Wrobel handles a diverse portfolio of service-based contracts critical to sustaining federal land stewardship. Their work ensures that mission-critical functions—from cultural site preservation to utility system maintenance—are supported through compliant, transparent contracting processes under the Federal Acquisition Regulation. Wrobel maintains consistent working relationships with VCLOUD GOV INC., a primary contractor providing specialized technical and operational support services. Their procurement pattern reflects a preference for established vendors with proven experience in federal land management environments, often engaging partners capable of delivering integrated facilities support, environmental monitoring, and IT-enabled logistics. These partnerships are characterized by long-term performance reliability and adherence to federal sustainability and security standards. A balanced approach to socioeconomic contracting is evident in Wrobel’s award strategy, with approximately half of procurements structured as total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5, while the remainder remain open to all competitors. This reflects a deliberate commitment to fostering small business participation without compromising operational needs, aligning with the Forest Service’s broader goals of inclusive economic development in rural and forest-adjacent communities. The procurement focus centers on NAICS 334516 for analytical laboratory instrumentation used in environmental testing, NAICS 541191 for title and settlement services tied to land use documentation, and NAICS 561210 for facilities support services. Additional emphasis is placed on NAICS 238220 and 238210 for plumbing, HVAC, and electrical infrastructure upgrades. Wrobel’s expertise lies in procuring technical services that ensure regulatory compliance, infrastructure resilience, and ecological integrity across federally managed lands.
