Daniel M. Saccomando

Daniel M. Saccomando is a procurement professional responsible for managing complex acquisitions in advanced manufacturing and scientific research domains. He plays a critical role in executing agency mission objectives by overseeing the solicitation, evaluation, and award of contracts for specialized technical equipment and R&D services. His portfolio centers on high-precision instrumentation, aerospace components, and engineering research initiatives, requiring deep technical acumen and strict adherence to Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) compliance standards. Saccomando ensures acquisitions align with national security and technological innovation priorities through rigorous market research and competitive sourcing strategies. His contractor relationships span a diverse ecosystem of manufacturers and research providers, primarily engaged through full and open competition. While no single vendor dominates his award profile, he consistently engages firms with proven capabilities in precision instrumentation, guided missile subsystems, and fluid measurement technologies. Saccomando favors vendors with demonstrated technical excellence, quality assurance certifications, and experience in low-volume, high-complexity production environments. His approach emphasizes performance-based contracting and post-award oversight to ensure deliverables meet stringent operational requirements. Saccomando exhibits a strong preference for full and open competition, with 87.5% of his acquisitions conducted without set-asides. However, he actively supports small business participation, allocating 12.5% of his contract actions to Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5. While no other socioeconomic categories are currently reflected in his pattern, his consistent use of small business set-asides signals a deliberate commitment to expanding market access for qualified small manufacturers and R&D firms. His primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 334519 (Other Measuring and Controlling Device Manufacturing) and 541715 (R&D in Physical, Engineering, and Life Sciences), reflecting expertise in instrumentation design, sensor systems, and applied engineering research. He also regularly procures components under NAICS 336419 and 332313, indicating experience with aerospace parts fabrication and precision plate work. His technical domain centers on defense-related instrumentation, laboratory-grade measurement systems, and advanced manufacturing processes requiring strict tolerances and regulatory compliance.
