Zachary Timm

Zachary Timm serves as a key procurement lead at Base Cape COD (00052), supporting the U.S. Coast Guard’s mission to maintain and modernize critical infrastructure across its operational facilities. Responsible for managing facility services acquisitions, Timm oversees the full lifecycle of contracts for HVAC, plumbing, electrical, and structural systems, ensuring compliance with federal regulations and operational readiness standards. His work directly enables the agency’s strategic priorities in resilience, environmental compliance, and asset sustainability, with a focus on mission-critical infrastructure upgrades and preventive maintenance programs. Timm routinely handles competitive solicitations under FAR Part 15, prioritizing performance-based outcomes and lifecycle cost efficiency. Timm maintains a consistent working relationship with GALLO CONSTRUCTION CO INC, the agency’s primary contractor for mechanical and building systems services. This long-standing partnership reflects a preference for proven performers with demonstrated expertise in Coast Guard facility standards, including hazardous material abatement, energy-efficient retrofits, and Navy-CG-specific code compliance. His contracting approach emphasizes reliability, safety, and responsiveness, fostering collaborative vendor engagement through task order structures and performance incentives tied to quality metrics and schedule adherence. Timm’s procurement portfolio is exclusively structured under Total Small Business Set-Aside authority per FAR 19.5, reflecting a firm commitment to maximizing opportunities for small business participation. All solicitations are reserved for small businesses, with no open competition to large firms, ensuring equitable access to federal contracting opportunities. This pattern underscores a deliberate strategy to cultivate local and regional contractors capable of delivering specialized facility services while promoting economic development in coastal communities. His technical focus is singularly centered on NAICS 238220—Plumbing, Heating, and Air-Conditioning Contractors—reflecting deep expertise in mechanical systems procurement. Timm specializes in acquiring integrated HVAC upgrades, chilled water systems, boiler replacements, and sanitary plumbing installations, all aligned with Coast Guard facility standards and energy conservation mandates. His domain knowledge ensures that acquisitions support not only immediate operational needs but also long-term sustainability and regulatory compliance goals.
