Carol A Krajewski

Carol A. Krajewski serves as an Acquisition Specialist responsible for managing complex procurement actions within the defense and aerospace sectors. She plays a pivotal role in executing full lifecycle acquisitions—from market research and solicitation development to contract award and administration—ensuring compliance with FAR and agency-specific regulations. Her portfolio centers on high-technology systems and components critical to national defense, with a focus on aircraft propulsion, avionics, and power systems. Krajewski’s expertise lies in navigating technical requirements for mission-critical hardware, coordinating with engineering and program management teams to align procurement strategy with operational needs. While specific contractor names are not available, her contracting patterns reflect consistent engagement with Tier 1 aerospace manufacturers and specialized electronic component suppliers. She maintains a vendor ecosystem that includes both large primes and qualified small businesses, fostering competition through clear technical specifications and performance-based requirements. Her approach emphasizes transparency, risk mitigation, and value-driven sourcing, ensuring that acquisitions support long-term system readiness and sustainment. Krajewski demonstrates a strong preference for open competition, with 78.8% of her actions awarded without set-asides. Nevertheless, she actively supports small business participation, allocating 18.6% of awards to Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5, with additional allocations to HUBZone and Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business concerns. Her socioeconomic strategy balances broad market access with targeted opportunities, aligning with federal goals to expand small business involvement in advanced manufacturing. Her primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 336412 (Aircraft Engine and Engine Parts Manufacturing), 334419 (Other Electronic Component Manufacturing), and 336413 (Other Aircraft Parts and Auxiliary Equipment Manufacturing), reflecting deep technical familiarity with turbine systems, flight-critical electronics, and auxiliary aviation equipment. She routinely sources components requiring stringent quality controls, including MIL-SPEC and AS9100-certified products, demonstrating specialized expertise in aerospace engineering supply chains.
