Teresa Lamphere

Teresa Lamphere serves as the primary contracting lead for the U.S. Coast Guard’s CEU PROVIDENCE (70Z0G1), responsible for managing the acquisition of critical infrastructure projects that sustain and modernize Coast Guard facilities nationwide. Her role centers on executing full-cycle procurement for construction and engineering services essential to operational readiness, including barracks, training centers, boat maintenance facilities, and utility system upgrades. She ensures compliance with federal acquisition regulations while aligning contract awards with the agency’s mission to support maritime law enforcement, search and rescue, and national defense infrastructure. Lamphere maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of experienced contractors, including TERRY CONTRACTING & MATERIALS, INC., GALVIN BROS & MADHUE CONTRACTING JV, CHESTERFIELD ASSOCIATES INC, FULLER MARINE SERVICES, INC, and AGM MARINE CONTRACTORS INC. These partnerships reflect a preference for firms with proven expertise in marine-adjacent construction, heavy civil engineering, and facility modernization. Her procurement approach emphasizes reliability, technical competency, and past performance in challenging coastal and waterfront environments. She demonstrates a firm commitment to small business participation, with 100% of her acquisitions structured as total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5. This reflects a deliberate strategy to prioritize economically disadvantaged and locally rooted contractors, fostering resilience within the small business ecosystem that supports Coast Guard operations. Her contracting patterns consistently align with socioeconomic goals without compromising mission-critical delivery standards. Her primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 236220 (Commercial and Institutional Building Construction) and 237990 (Other Heavy and Civil Engineering Construction), each accounting for nearly half of her portfolio, with additional emphasis on NAICS 238210 (Electrical Contractors). She specializes in procuring turnkey construction, structural rehabilitation, electrical system upgrades, and site infrastructure development tailored to the unique demands of Coast Guard installations.
