Shean E. Mohammed

Shean E. Mohammed serves as a key procurement professional within the U.S. Coast Guard’s SFLC Procurement Branch 1 (70Z080), responsible for managing complex acquisitions to sustain and modernize the Coast Guard’s fleet of cutters and maritime assets. Focused on shipbuilding, repair, and maintenance contracts, Mohammed ensures operational readiness through strategic procurement of vessel overhauls, propulsion system upgrades, and dry dock services. Their work directly supports the Coast Guard’s mission to maintain a resilient, mission-capable fleet across coastal, offshore, and open-ocean environments, with a strong emphasis on lifecycle extension and technical modernization of naval platforms. Mohammed maintains consistent working relationships with specialized maritime contractors including Fairbanks Morse, LLC, Thoma-Sea Marine Constructors, L.L.C., Bay Ship & Yacht Co., Automatic Coating Limited USA, and Technico Corporation. These partnerships reflect a preference for vendors with proven expertise in naval vessel construction, corrosion protection, propulsion system integration, and dry dock infrastructure. The contracting approach emphasizes long-term vendor collaboration, technical compliance, and performance-based contract management to ensure mission-critical readiness standards are met. A pronounced commitment to small business participation is evident in Mohammed’s procurement patterns, with over 61% of awards structured as total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5. Service-disabled veteran-owned small businesses also receive targeted consideration, reflecting a deliberate socioeconomic strategy aligned with federal priorities. The consistent use of set-asides demonstrates a dedication to fostering competition among qualified small firms capable of delivering specialized maritime services. The procurement portfolio is overwhelmingly concentrated in NAICS 336611 (Ship Building and Repairing), underscoring deep technical expertise in naval architecture, marine engineering, and vessel maintenance. Secondary categories include commercial equipment leasing and nonferrous metal foundries, supporting ancillary needs for vessel components and logistics. Mohammed’s domain expertise lies in complex, technically demanding acquisitions requiring stringent compliance with U.S. Navy and Coast Guard technical specifications and quality assurance protocols.
