Troy Phillis

Troy Phillis serves as the Technical Point of Contact for the Rogue River-Siskiyou National Forest, providing critical technical oversight for procurement initiatives aligned with ecological restoration and forest management objectives. In this role, he collaborates closely with contracting staff to define performance requirements, evaluate technical proposals, and ensure compliance with federal land management standards. His expertise guides the acquisition of specialized services and equipment essential to prescribed fire operations, invasive species control, reforestation, and infrastructure maintenance. Phillis ensures that all procurements reflect the agency’s mission of enhancing ecosystem resilience and public safety through science-based, sustainable resource stewardship. He maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of contractors including S365 INC, LOGISTICS365 INC, SPROUT FORESTRY INCORPORATED, and THREE STRIPES CONTRACTING LLC. These vendors are frequently engaged for field-based ecological services, wildfire mitigation support, and forest infrastructure rehabilitation. Phillis fosters collaborative, performance-driven partnerships that emphasize technical proficiency, operational safety, and adherence to National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) requirements. His engagement with contractors is rooted in long-term project continuity and mission alignment rather than transactional procurement cycles. Phillis operates within a procurement environment where 100% of acquisitions are set aside for small businesses under FAR 19.5, reflecting a strong institutional commitment to socioeconomic inclusion. He actively supports the participation of small disadvantaged, veteran-owned, and locally based firms capable of delivering specialized forestry and land management services. This approach ensures that contracting opportunities directly benefit rural economies and build local capacity for federal land stewardship. His technical domain centers on ecological restoration, wildfire response, and forest infrastructure, with procurements typically involving vegetation management, fuel reduction, trail and road maintenance, and ecological monitoring systems. While NAICS codes are not formally tracked, his work consistently intersects with services requiring field expertise in silviculture, prescribed burning protocols, and habitat restoration—domains demanding certified professionals with hands-on experience in the Pacific Southwest forest ecosystems.
