Berel B Dorfman

Berel B. Dorfman serves as a Contract Price/Cost Analyst, providing critical cost analysis and pricing validation to support the agency’s acquisition strategy. In this role, Dorfman evaluates proposed costs, conducts independent government cost estimates, and ensures compliance with FAR pricing principles across complex procurements. Their work underpins contract award decisions by identifying cost realism, risk exposure, and value alignment, directly contributing to fiscal accountability and mission readiness. Dorfman typically handles high-technical acquisitions involving telecommunications systems, engineering services, and information technology solutions, ensuring that contract pricing reflects market conditions and technical requirements. While no specific contractor relationships are identifiable in the available data, Dorfman engages with a broad spectrum of vendors—including prime contractors, systems integrators, and specialized service providers—across the technology and engineering sectors. Their analytical approach fosters transparent, data-driven negotiations, encouraging competitive pricing and equitable contract terms. Dorfman’s consistent use of cost modeling and benchmarking techniques supports fair and reasonable pricing determinations, reinforcing trust between the government and industry partners. Dorfman’s procurement patterns reflect a strong preference for open competition, with 100% of acquisitions classified as “No Set-Aside.” This indicates a focus on technical merit and cost-effectiveness over socioeconomic set-asides, though it does not preclude small business participation when they competitively offer the best value. The absence of 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB targeting suggests a mission-driven emphasis on capability over socioeconomic classification. Dorfman’s primary industry focus lies in NAICS 334220 (radio and television broadcasting and wireless communications equipment manufacturing), with significant activity in computer systems design (541512), engineering services (541330), satellite telecommunications (517410), and marketing research (541910). This specialization reflects deep expertise in procuring advanced communications infrastructure, technical engineering solutions, and data-driven analytical services, positioning Dorfman as a key analyst in mission-critical technology acquisitions.
