Alan Lee

Alan W. Lee serves as a procurement professional responsible for managing complex acquisitions within the aerospace and industrial systems domain. He plays a critical role in executing the agency’s acquisition strategy by overseeing the solicitation, evaluation, and award of contracts for mission-critical components and technical systems. His portfolio centers on high-precision manufacturing and industrial supply chains, ensuring timely delivery of parts and equipment essential to national defense and aerospace operations. Lee routinely handles full and open competitions as well as limited-source procurements under FAR Part 15, with a strong emphasis on technical compliance and performance-based contracting. Lee’s contractor relationships are primarily with manufacturers and wholesale distributors specializing in aerospace-grade components, industrial instrumentation, and specialty coatings. He engages with a diverse base of vendors, including Tier 1 suppliers in aircraft power systems and niche producers of process control instrumentation. His contracting approach emphasizes long-term supplier partnerships grounded in quality assurance, supply chain resilience, and adherence to MIL-SPEC and AS9100 standards. While no single contractor dominates his portfolio, he consistently works with firms capable of meeting stringent technical and certification requirements. Lee’s procurement pattern reflects a strong preference for full and open competition, with only 5.3% of awards designated as total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5. He does not routinely utilize 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB set-asides, indicating a focus on technical capability over socioeconomic preferences. Nevertheless, he ensures small businesses have equitable access to opportunities through unrestricted competitions where they can compete on merit. His primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 336412 and 336413, encompassing aircraft engine components and auxiliary equipment, alongside 334513 for industrial measurement and control systems. He also frequently procures industrial supplies through 423840 and specialty coatings under 325510, demonstrating expertise in materials science and systems integration for high-reliability applications.
