Tammy Gallegos

Tammy Gallegos serves as a key procurement lead within the National Park Service’s Imr Santa Fe office (140P13), overseeing acquisitions critical to the preservation and operational resilience of national park infrastructure. She manages a diverse portfolio of contracts focused on engineering services and forestry support activities, ensuring that remote park units receive timely, mission-critical upgrades to water and wastewater systems, trail networks, and facility maintenance capabilities. Her work directly supports the agency’s strategic priorities in climate-adaptive construction and resource protection, aligning procurement decisions with long-term sustainability goals and operational continuity across federally protected lands. Gallegos maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of specialized contractors, including WATER RUNNER LLC and WESTERN MECHANICAL CO INC for hydraulic and infrastructure systems, KIESLER POLICE SUPPLY INC and QUANTICO TACTICAL INCORPORATED for security and law enforcement equipment, and VISTA OUTDOOR SALES LLC for outdoor operational gear. These partnerships reflect a preference for vendors with proven expertise in rugged, field-deployable solutions tailored to remote and environmentally sensitive locations. Her contracting approach emphasizes reliability, technical specificity, and vendor familiarity with NPS operational protocols. Gallegos’s procurement portfolio reflects a 100% non-set-aside orientation, indicating a focus on open competition based on technical merit and operational suitability rather than socioeconomic preferences. While small business participation is not formally incentivized through set-asides, her award patterns suggest selection is driven by vendor capability to meet stringent environmental and logistical demands unique to national park environments. Her primary NAICS focus areas—115310 (Support Activities for Forestry) and 541330 (Engineering Services)—reveal deep specialization in ecological infrastructure support and civil engineering solutions. She procures services such as trail erosion control, wildfire mitigation planning, water system retrofitting, and structural assessments for historic facilities, demonstrating technical fluency in environmental compliance, federal construction standards, and resource-based engineering.
