Amy Lineberry

Amy Lineberry serves as a Contract Specialist within the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), where she manages the acquisition of specialized analytical laboratory instrumentation and supporting technical services critical to NOAA’s environmental monitoring and research missions. She plays a pivotal role in ensuring timely, compliant, and cost-effective procurement of high-precision scientific equipment used in oceanographic, atmospheric, and coastal data collection systems. Her acquisitions primarily support mission-critical functions including climate modeling, marine ecosystem assessment, and weather forecasting, requiring deep technical understanding of instrumentation specifications and regulatory compliance under FAR and agency-specific guidelines. Lineberry maintains consistent working relationships with a select group of specialized vendors, including WISCONSIN EDUCATIONAL COMMUNICATIONS BOARD, TRONCONI SEGARRA & ASSOCIATES LLP, JNB SERVICES LLC, PURE ENVIRO-MANAGEMENT, LLC, and THE REGENTS OF THE UNIVERSITY OF COLORADO. These partnerships reflect a focus on firms with proven expertise in manufacturing, calibration, and maintenance of advanced analytical instruments, as well as those capable of delivering technical support and data integration services aligned with NOAA’s scientific infrastructure needs. Her contracting approach emphasizes performance-based requirements and long-term service reliability. Lineberry’s procurement portfolio reflects a 100% non-set-aside orientation, indicating a strategic emphasis on technical capability and performance over socioeconomic classifications. While she does not prioritize 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB set-asides, her evaluations consistently prioritize vendor qualifications, past performance, and technical compliance, ensuring mission-critical outcomes are met through the most capable providers. Her primary focus is on NAICS 334516—Analytical Laboratory Instrument Manufacturing—where she procures high-end spectrometers, sensors, data loggers, and environmental monitoring systems used in NOAA’s field and laboratory operations. Her expertise lies in evaluating complex technical proposals for instruments requiring stringent calibration, traceability, and interoperability with federal data networks, demonstrating deep domain knowledge in environmental instrumentation and scientific procurement standards.
