Steven A. Guzman

Steven A. Guzman serves as a Contract Specialist within U.S. Transportation Command (USTransCom), where he plays a pivotal role in executing the agency’s global mobility mission through the acquisition of critical logistics and transportation services. He manages full-cycle contracting actions for expeditionary support systems, port and terminal operations, and rapid deployment enablers across air, sea, land, and rail domains. His portfolio centers on complex, mission-critical procurements that ensure the seamless movement of personnel and materiel in support of theater access and sustainment operations worldwide, requiring deep familiarity with Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement (DFARS) compliance and contingency contracting protocols. Guzman maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of specialized aviation and logistics contractors, including UNCOMN LLC, PHOENIX AIR GROUP, INC., RAMPART AVIATION, LLC, FANCIULLI EGISTO S.R.L., and MOUNTAIN AVIATION, LLC. These partnerships reflect a focus on niche providers offering expeditionary airlift, cargo handling, and global air mobility support services. His contracting approach emphasizes performance-based outcomes, strict adherence to operational readiness requirements, and long-term vendor collaboration to ensure mission continuity under dynamic global conditions. His procurement strategy reflects a balanced commitment to socioeconomic objectives, with approximately half of his awards structured as Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5, demonstrating a deliberate emphasis on enabling small business participation in defense mobility operations. While no other socioeconomic set-asides dominate his portfolio, his consistent use of small business set-asides underscores a strategic alignment with DoD goals to broaden the industrial base and foster innovation among qualified small contractors. Guzman’s expertise is narrowly focused on NAICS Code 519190—Other Information Services—which in USTransCom’s context encompasses specialized logistics coordination, operational support systems, and mission-critical information services enabling global transportation management. His acquisitions primarily involve command and control platforms, real-time cargo tracking systems, and integrated logistics software solutions that underpin the agency’s ability to synchronize multi-domain mobility operations.
