William Perry

William Perry supports the Stewardship Contracting Branch of the U.S. Forest Service in executing landscape-scale stewardship contracts designed to advance ecological restoration and wildfire risk reduction across national forests. In this role, he facilitates complex, multi-objective acquisitions that integrate timber harvesting with watershed protection, road maintenance, and infrastructure improvements, ensuring compliance with the National Environmental Policy Act and the Healthy Forests Restoration Act. His procurement activities center on performance-based, results-driven contracting mechanisms that align with the Forest Service’s strategic goal of fostering resilient forest ecosystems through collaborative, long-term partnerships. Perry maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of specialized contractors, including Brink Brothers Inc., Peak Engineering LLC, Miller Timber Services, Inc., Az Hammer Down, LLC, and Dennis Kirby. These vendors are selected for their demonstrated expertise in forest operations, heavy equipment deployment, and ecological restoration techniques. His contracting approach emphasizes reliability, technical proficiency, and proven on-the-ground experience in remote, environmentally sensitive terrains, fostering long-term vendor partnerships built on performance accountability and shared stewardship objectives. Perry’s procurement portfolio is entirely set aside for small businesses under FAR 19.5, reflecting a firm commitment to expanding economic opportunities for small, locally rooted firms capable of delivering forest stewardship services. He prioritizes small business participation as a core component of sustainable resource management, ensuring that contracting opportunities directly benefit rural economies and community-based enterprises with the capacity to execute complex, labor-intensive restoration work. His acquisitions are exclusively categorized under NAICS 237310 (Highway, Street, and Bridge Construction), reflecting the critical need for infrastructure maintenance and access road rehabilitation as foundational elements of forest stewardship. This specialization underscores his technical focus on transportation networks that enable ecological treatments, fire suppression access, and public safety—aligning civil engineering capabilities with forest health outcomes.
