Daniel J Price

Daniel J. Price serves as a Contracting Officer responsible for managing complex procurements across a range of specialized manufacturing sectors. In this role, he ensures compliance with federal acquisition regulations while advancing agency mission objectives through strategic sourcing, competitive bidding, and contract administration. His portfolio primarily encompasses industrial and medical manufacturing requirements, with a focus on surgical supplies, ophthalmic goods, and miscellaneous fabricated metal products. Price exercises full contracting authority from solicitation through award and closeout, ensuring transparency, fairness, and regulatory adherence throughout the acquisition lifecycle. While specific contractor names are not currently available in the dataset, Price maintains a robust network of manufacturers and suppliers aligned with his procurement priorities. He engages with both large-capacity industrial producers and small business entities capable of meeting stringent technical specifications for medical-grade and precision-manufactured goods. His working relationships emphasize vendor reliability, quality control, and adherence to federal standards, fostering long-term partnerships grounded in performance and compliance. Price demonstrates a strong commitment to small business participation, with approximately 25.9% of his acquisitions set aside for total small businesses under FAR 19.5. His contracting patterns reflect a deliberate effort to expand economic opportunity for small manufacturers, though the majority of his awards—74.1%—are competed without set-aside restrictions, indicating a preference for open competition when small business capability is sufficient to meet requirements. His primary industry focus lies in NAICS 339113 (Surgical Appliance and Supplies Manufacturing) and 339999 (All Other Miscellaneous Manufacturing), with significant activity also in ophthalmic goods (339115) and textile product mills (314999). This specialization reflects deep technical expertise in procuring regulated medical devices, precision components, and specialized consumables requiring adherence to FDA and ISO standards. Price’s domain knowledge enables effective evaluation of technical proposals and ensures acquisitions align with operational and safety requirements.
