Timothy Clapp

Timothy Clapp serves as a key procurement professional within the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, supporting the agency’s mission of ecological stewardship through strategic acquisition of services and equipment critical to habitat conservation and land management. He manages a diverse portfolio of contracts focused on environmental compliance, wildlife habitat restoration, and operational support, ensuring alignment with federal environmental regulations and sustainable land use practices. His acquisitions primarily involve technical services, facility support, and specialized equipment procurement essential to field operations across national wildlife refuges and protected ecosystems. Clapp maintains consistent working relationships with a select group of contractors, including Federal Contracts LLC, Grassland Management, LLC, and Hawaii Resource Group LLC, all of which provide specialized environmental, land management, and operational support services. His procurement patterns reflect a preference for vendors with proven expertise in ecological restoration, invasive species control, and fuel reduction activities. These partnerships are typically established through competitive sealed bidding and task order contracts under GSA schedules or indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity (IDIQ) mechanisms, emphasizing performance-based outcomes and technical proficiency. His contracting activity shows a strong preference for open competition, with 88.9% of awards issued without set-asides, indicating a focus on broad market access and technical capability over socioeconomic preferences. However, he consistently allocates 5.6% of awards each to Total Small Business Set-Asides and Women-Owned Small Businesses, demonstrating a measured but intentional commitment to socioeconomic diversity in vendor participation. Clapp’s procurement focus centers on NAICS codes 561720 (Janitorial Services), 115310 (Support Activities for Forestry), 541620 (Environmental Consulting Services), 333120 (Construction Machinery Manufacturing), and 561210 (Facilities Support Services). He routinely acquires ecological monitoring tools, heavy equipment for fuel reduction, environmental compliance consulting, and infrastructure maintenance services, reflecting deep domain expertise in federal land management operations and ecosystem-based resource stewardship.
