Vio F. Bertucci

Vio F. Bertucci serves as a key procurement lead within the U.S. Coast Guard’s Headquarters Contract Operations (CG-912), overseeing strategic acquisitions that advance maritime security, operational readiness, and fleet modernization. Responsible for managing complex service contracts, Bertucci specializes in securing administrative and management consulting services that enable efficient program execution across coastal patrol, maritime domain awareness, and vessel sustainment initiatives. Their work directly supports the Coast Guard’s mission to enhance detection, response, and enforcement capabilities through data-driven contract planning and performance-based acquisition strategies. Bertucci maintains longstanding relationships with a focused group of prime contractors, including Bollinger Shipyards Lockport, L.L.C., Davie Defense Inc., Rauma Marine Constructions Oy, and Rozema’s Boat Works, Inc., all of which provide specialized maritime engineering, shipbuilding, and technical support services. These partnerships are characterized by sustained engagement on multi-year modernization programs, reflecting a preference for proven vendors with deep domain expertise in naval architecture and Coast Guard-specific operational requirements. The contracting approach emphasizes reliability, technical alignment, and lifecycle support over competitive bidding for routine services. Bertucci’s procurement portfolio reflects a consistent 100% preference for non-set-aside contracts, indicating a strategic focus on full and open competition rather than socioeconomic set-asides. While small business participation is not formally prioritized through 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB designations, the agency’s reliance on established industrial partners suggests a mission-driven emphasis on capability and readiness over socioeconomic targets. The primary NAICS code under Bertucci’s purview is 541611—Administrative Management and General Management Consulting Services—indicating a heavy focus on contract administration, program management, logistics planning, and systems integration support. This specialization underscores an operational model centered on optimizing acquisition processes, ensuring compliance, and delivering mission-critical advisory services that underpin the Coast Guard’s modernization and sustainment efforts.
