Yaisa Goodwin

Yaisa Goodwin supports the SFLC Procurement Branch 1 (70Z080) of the U.S. Coast Guard in executing critical acquisition strategies to sustain and modernize the nation’s maritime fleet. Though their official title is not listed, their role centers on managing complex procurement actions for ship repair, vessel maintenance, and naval systems integration, ensuring operational readiness across coastal and open-ocean missions. Goodwin handles a portfolio of contracts spanning structural, mechanical, and electrical components essential to cutter lifecycle management, including dry dock overhauls, propulsion upgrades, and hull integrity systems. Their work directly enables the Coast Guard’s strategic imperative to extend the service life of its aging fleet through timely, technically rigorous contracting. Goodwin maintains consistent relationships with key industrial partners including Fairbanks Morse, LLC, Thoma-Sea Marine Constructors, L.L.C., Bay Ship & Yacht Co., Automatic Coating Limited USA, and Technico Corporation. These vendors are selected for their specialized expertise in marine fabrication, corrosion protection, switchgear integration, and engine system modernization. The contracting patterns reflect a preference for established, technically capable contractors with proven track records in naval maintenance and shipyard operations, indicating a focus on reliability and compliance with military specifications. Set-aside preferences show a strong orientation toward open competition, with 83.3% of acquisitions conducted without socioeconomic set-asides. However, 16.7% of awards are designated as Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5, reflecting a measured but deliberate commitment to small business participation without compromising mission-critical capability or schedule integrity. The procurement focus is concentrated in NAICS 332321 (Metal Window and Door Manufacturing) and 335313 (Switchgear and Switchboard Apparatus Manufacturing), underscoring expertise in marine enclosure systems and electrical distribution infrastructure. An additional emphasis on NAICS 333618 (Other Engine Equipment Manufacturing) highlights technical proficiency in propulsion and auxiliary power systems procurement, aligning with the Coast Guard’s need for robust, marine-grade mechanical and electrical components.
