Tanya E. Arnberger

Tanya E. Arnberger serves as a key procurement professional within the USDA Forest Service, supporting the agency’s mission to sustain national forest and grassland ecosystems through strategic acquisition of critical services and infrastructure support. She manages a diverse portfolio of contracts focused on operational readiness, emergency response, and resource management in remote and rugged environments. Her acquisitions primarily enable field operations, including construction, maintenance, janitorial support, and specialized technical services essential to forest health and public safety initiatives. Arnberger operates within a framework that prioritizes compliance with federal acquisition regulations and mission-aligned resource allocation. She 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 reflect a blend of skilled labor provisioning, medical and logistical support, and technology-enabled field operations. Her procurement patterns indicate a preference for established vendors with proven capacity to deliver in high-demand, geographically dispersed settings, often requiring rapid mobilization and specialized expertise in wildfire support and infrastructure resilience. Arnberger demonstrates a strong commitment to small business participation, with over half of her awards designated for total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5. She also regularly supports service-disabled veteran-owned small businesses and, to a lesser extent, women-owned small businesses, reflecting a deliberate socioeconomic contracting strategy aligned with federal goals. Her approach fosters inclusive economic opportunity while ensuring the agency accesses capable, responsive vendors. Her primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 237310 (highway, street, and bridge construction), NAICS 561720 (janitorial services), and NAICS 238990 (other specialty trade contractors), underscoring expertise in physical infrastructure maintenance and facility support services. She also procures specialized staffing and facility leasing services critical to sustaining operations across vast federal lands, demonstrating technical proficiency in mission-critical, non-defense federal contracting domains.
