Wayne Boney

Wayne Boney serves as a Contracting Specialist within the USDA Forest Service-spoc Software, supporting the agency’s mission to sustain and restore national forest ecosystems through strategic procurement of civil engineering and environmental services. He manages the full lifecycle of acquisition actions for infrastructure resilience projects, including road and bridge construction, hazardous tree removal, and site preparation activities. His work directly enables the Forest Service’s operational priorities by ensuring timely, compliant, and mission-aligned contract awards that uphold federal procurement regulations and environmental stewardship goals. Boney maintains a consistent working relationship with McKenzie Construction & Site Development LLC, a primary contractor delivering site development and civil infrastructure services critical to forest management operations. His procurement approach emphasizes long-term vendor partnerships grounded in performance reliability and regulatory compliance, fostering collaboration with contractors experienced in remote, environmentally sensitive terrains. He engages with a limited but high-impact pool of vendors who demonstrate proven expertise in forestry-supporting construction and remediation disciplines. His contracting portfolio reflects a strong preference for open competition, with approximately 70.6% of awards issued without set-aside restrictions. He actively supports socioeconomic programs, allocating nearly 21% of opportunities to HUBZone-certified firms and approximately 3% to service-disabled veteran-owned small businesses, demonstrating a measured but intentional commitment to small business inclusion within the federal contracting framework. Boney’s primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 237310 (Highway, Street, and Bridge Construction) and 115310 (Support Activities for Forestry), with additional emphasis on specialty trade contracting under 238990 and environmental consulting under 541620. He routinely procures services related to erosion control, forest road maintenance, reforestation site prep, and hazardous vegetation management, demonstrating deep technical familiarity with land management infrastructure needs and ecological restoration standards.
