Tanna Paulson

Tanna Paulson serves as an Administrative Support Clerk within the USDA Forest Service, providing critical procurement support for operational contracts that sustain the agency’s mission across remote and rugged federal lands. In this role, she facilitates the administrative execution of acquisition processes, ensuring compliance with federal contracting regulations and supporting the timely deployment of essential services. Her responsibilities include managing documentation, coordinating vendor communications, and assisting in the preparation and tracking of solicitation packages—primarily for janitorial and facility support services critical to maintaining operational readiness at forest service stations and field offices. Paulson maintains consistent working relationships with a select group of contractors, including ACI FEDERAL INC, ONE STOP RECRUITING LLC, GONDO ROY E MD, THE LOCUMS CO, LLC, and AMD INTERNATIONAL TECHNOLOGIES LLC. These partnerships are primarily centered on service-based contracts requiring flexible, on-site support, including cleaning, custodial operations, and personnel staffing solutions tailored to the unique logistical demands of federal land management sites. Her workflow reflects a preference for established vendors with proven capacity to deliver reliable, low-disruption services in remote environments. All of Paulson’s procurement actions are structured under a 100% Total Small Business Set-Aside, demonstrating a steadfast commitment to socioeconomic contracting goals under FAR 19.5. She consistently prioritizes small business participation, ensuring that every solicitation is designed to maximize opportunities for small, disadvantaged, and locally rooted vendors aligned with the Forest Service’s community engagement objectives. Her procurement focus is exclusively under NAICS 561720 (Janitorial Services), reflecting deep specialization in facility maintenance and sanitation support for federal infrastructure. She procures cleaning supplies, staffing services, and specialized custodial equipment necessary to uphold hygiene and safety standards in high-traffic and environmentally sensitive areas, reinforcing the agency’s operational resilience and public health obligations.
