Amy M Wiggins

Amy M. Wiggins serves as a Contracting Officer responsible for managing complex procurement actions across technical and engineering domains. She plays a critical role in executing agency acquisition strategies by ensuring compliance with federal procurement regulations, including FAR and DFARS, while delivering mission-critical services through competitive and transparent processes. Her portfolio primarily consists of professional, scientific, and technical services, with a strong emphasis on engineering design, research and development, and specialized manufacturing contracts. Wiggins ensures acquisitions align with statutory requirements and operational needs, frequently engaging in sole-source, sealed bidding, and negotiated procurements to meet urgent and long-term mission objectives. While specific contractor names are not available, Wiggins maintains relationships with a diverse pool of vendors capable of delivering high-precision engineering solutions, advanced R&D capabilities, and defense-related manufacturing services. Her contracting patterns reflect a preference for established firms with proven technical expertise in aerospace, defense systems, and scientific instrumentation. She consistently evaluates vendor performance, past performance records, and technical proposals to ensure contract success and accountability, fostering long-term partnerships with vendors who demonstrate reliability and innovation. Wiggins demonstrates a strong commitment to socioeconomic contracting, with approximately 89.5% of her awards issued under open competition and 10.5% designated as Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5. She actively promotes small business participation by structuring solicitations to maximize eligibility for small businesses, though she does not routinely utilize 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB set-asides. Her approach prioritizes market readiness and capability over socioeconomic designation, ensuring value and mission alignment. Her primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 541330 (Engineering Services) and 541712 (R&D in Physical and Engineering Sciences), reflecting deep expertise in technical services supporting infrastructure, systems integration, and scientific innovation. She also regularly procures specialized ammunition and guided missile manufacturing services under NAICS 332993 and 336414, indicating significant involvement in defense and national security programs requiring stringent quality controls and supply chain integrity.
