Tammey Mount

Tammey Mount serves as an Administrative Services specialist within the Tahoe National Forest, supporting the U.S. Forest Service’s mission to maintain ecological resilience and public safety through efficient operational procurement. In this role, Mount manages the acquisition of essential administrative and facility support services critical to day-to-day forest operations, ensuring compliance with federal contracting regulations and agency sustainability goals. Their procurement activities center on maintaining clean, safe, and functional infrastructure across remote and high-use forest sites, directly enabling field staff to focus on resource stewardship and wildfire mitigation efforts. Mount’s contracting patterns reflect a strong emphasis on vendor partnerships with small, locally rooted service providers, particularly those certified under socioeconomic programs designed to expand equitable economic opportunity. While no specific contractor names are currently listed, the consistent preference for Women-Owned Small Businesses (WOSB) signals a deliberate strategy to prioritize female entrepreneurs in the delivery of essential services. This pattern supports broader Department of Agriculture goals to strengthen community resilience through inclusive contracting. The agency’s procurement portfolio is overwhelmingly focused on NAICS 561720—Janitorial Services—indicating a specialized operational need for routine, high-quality custodial and sanitation support across ranger stations, visitor centers, and field offices. These services include waste management, restroom sanitation, interior cleaning, and environmentally compliant disposal protocols tailored to sensitive forest ecosystems. Mount’s expertise lies in ensuring these services meet federal environmental standards while maintaining operational continuity in remote, often challenging terrain. With a 100% set-aside preference for Women-Owned Small Businesses, Mount actively cultivates a contracting environment that empowers underrepresented entrepreneurs to contribute meaningfully to public land stewardship. Their work exemplifies how administrative procurement directly supports ecological and community outcomes through intentional, mission-aligned sourcing.
