Dawn Rabunsky

Dawn Rabunsky serves as a Contact Specialist–Team Leader, guiding the acquisition lifecycle for mission-critical services within her organization. In this leadership capacity, she oversees the planning, solicitation, and award of contracts aligned with federal procurement regulations, ensuring compliance with FAR standards and agency objectives. Her portfolio primarily encompasses professional services, technical testing, and facility support contracts, requiring nuanced evaluation of vendor capabilities and performance metrics. Rabunsky plays a pivotal role in translating operational needs into executable procurement strategies, fostering transparency and efficiency across the acquisition process. While specific contractor names are not publicly identifiable, Rabunsky maintains consistent engagement with a diverse pool of vendors, including small businesses and specialized service providers across technical and administrative domains. Her contracting patterns reflect a preference for collaborative, performance-based agreements that emphasize quality assurance and long-term service reliability. She routinely works with firms capable of delivering specialized testing, facility management, and management consulting services, cultivating vendor relationships grounded in regulatory adherence and measurable outcomes. Rabunsky demonstrates a strong commitment to small business participation, with nearly 27% of her awards designated as total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5. Her contracting approach prioritizes socioeconomic programs that expand market access for small businesses, aligning with federal goals to increase diverse supplier engagement. While the majority of her acquisitions remain open to all competitors, her targeted use of small business set-asides reflects a deliberate strategy to foster competition and innovation among non-traditional contractors. Her primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 541380 (Testing Laboratories and Services), where she sources analytical and quality control services, followed by 812930 (Parking Lots and Garages) for facility maintenance and 541611 (Management Consulting) for operational support. She frequently procures specialized equipment and professional services requiring technical expertise in measurement systems and regulatory compliance, demonstrating deep familiarity with the intersection of technical standards and acquisition policy.
