Bryan Daines

Bryan Daines serves as a procurement professional responsible for managing complex acquisitions across scientific, technical, and professional services domains. He plays a critical role in advancing the agency’s mission by ensuring timely and compliant contract awards that align with federal acquisition regulations. His portfolio primarily encompasses consulting services, technical support, and specialized equipment procurement, with a strong emphasis on performance-based contracting and requirements definition. Daines is deeply involved in the full acquisition lifecycle—from market research and solicitation development to contract award and administration—ensuring transparency, competition, and regulatory adherence. While specific contractor names are not available, Daines maintains a broad network of vendor partnerships spanning professional services firms, technical consultants, and niche manufacturers. His contracting patterns reflect a preference for competitive, open market procurements, with targeted engagement with small businesses that meet specific socioeconomic criteria. He consistently fosters relationships with firms capable of delivering high-quality, mission-critical services, particularly those with demonstrated expertise in technical consulting and systems integration. Daines demonstrates a strong commitment to socioeconomic contracting, with the vast majority of his awards—87%—issued under open, non-set-aside conditions. However, he actively supports small business participation, allocating approximately 8.7% of awards to Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses and 4.3% to Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5. This balanced approach ensures broad competition while fulfilling statutory obligations to promote veteran-owned and small business involvement. His primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 541690 (Other Scientific and Technical Consulting Services), 541611 (Administrative Management Consulting), and 541990 (Other Professional Services), reflecting a deep specialization in advisory and technical support. He also regularly procures specialized equipment under NAICS 334511, indicating expertise in aerospace and navigation systems, alongside limited procurement of commercial furniture under NAICS 423210. His domain expertise centers on mission-enabling services requiring technical precision, regulatory compliance, and operational readiness.
