William J. Kulbitsky

William J. Kulbitsky serves as a Procurement Technician for the USDA Forest Service’s Olympic National Forest, supporting the agency’s mission to sustainably manage one of the nation’s most ecologically sensitive temperate rainforest ecosystems. In this role, he facilitates the acquisition of critical services and infrastructure projects essential to public safety, habitat preservation, and resource stewardship. Kulbitsky handles a diverse portfolio of procurements under the Federal Acquisition Regulation, primarily managing task orders and blanket purchase agreements for support activities, construction, and facility maintenance. His work ensures timely delivery of services that maintain trailheads, restroom facilities, roadways, and utility systems across rugged terrain, directly enabling visitor access and ecological resilience. Kulbitsky collaborates closely with a network of small and mid-sized contractors specializing in forestry support, civil construction, and facility services. While specific vendor names are not disclosed, his procurement patterns reflect consistent engagement with locally rooted firms possessing expertise in remote-site operations and environmental compliance. He fosters collaborative, long-term vendor relationships grounded in performance accountability and adherence to federal environmental standards, ensuring contractors meet the unique logistical and ecological demands of the Olympic Peninsula. A strong advocate for socioeconomic equity in contracting, Kulbitsky consistently prioritizes small business participation, with 77.8% of his acquisitions set aside for total small businesses and 22.2% designated for HUBZone-certified firms. His contracting approach actively promotes economic opportunity in underserved rural communities, aligning with federal mandates to expand access for disadvantaged entrepreneurs. This commitment reflects a strategic alignment between procurement policy and regional workforce development goals. His primary procurement focus centers on NAICS 115310 (Support Activities for Forestry), including snag removal, hazard tree mitigation, and brush control; NAICS 237310 (Highway, Street, and Bridge Construction) for road and bridge maintenance; and NAICS 236220 (Commercial and Institutional Building Construction) for visitor facilities. He also manages janitorial services under NAICS 561720 to maintain public restrooms and trailhead infrastructure. Kulbitsky’s technical expertise lies at the intersection of environmental compliance, infrastructure resilience, and sustainable land management.
