Brett E. Samocki

Brett E. Samocki serves as a Contract Specialist responsible for managing the full lifecycle of federal acquisitions, from requirements definition and market research through solicitation, evaluation, award, and contract administration. His role is central to ensuring compliance with federal procurement regulations, particularly the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR), and advancing the agency’s mission through transparent, efficient, and legally sound contracting practices. He primarily handles complex, high-volume procurements for cut and sew apparel, coordinating closely with program offices to align technical specifications with operational needs while maintaining rigorous oversight of contractor performance and compliance. While specific contractor names are not available, Samocki maintains consistent working relationships with a broad network of apparel manufacturers and textile contractors, many of whom specialize in custom garment production for government use. His procurement approach emphasizes clear performance metrics, quality assurance protocols, and timely delivery schedules, fostering collaborative vendor partnerships grounded in accountability and regulatory adherence. He routinely engages with small businesses to ensure contract requirements are achievable and competitively sourced. Samocki demonstrates an unwavering commitment to small business participation, with 100% of his acquisitions structured as total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5. This reflects a deliberate strategy to maximize economic opportunity for small enterprises, ensuring that all awards are reserved exclusively for small businesses without further socioeconomic sub-set-asides. His contracting patterns prioritize equitable access and competitive bidding among qualified small firms, reinforcing the federal government’s broader goal of fostering a robust small business ecosystem. His procurement focus is exclusively on NAICS 315210, Cut and Sew Apparel Contractors, indicating deep specialization in the design, manufacturing, and delivery of tailored clothing and textile products. This includes uniforms, protective gear, and other specialized apparel requiring precise specifications for fit, durability, and compliance with government standards. Samocki’s expertise lies in navigating the technical nuances of fabric composition, labor-intensive production processes, and supply chain logistics unique to the apparel sector.
