Deborah P Lombardi

Deborah P. Lombardi serves as a Contract Specialist responsible for managing the full lifecycle of federal acquisitions, from requirement validation and market research to contract award and administration. She plays a pivotal role in ensuring compliance with FAR regulations and advancing agency mission objectives through strategic sourcing of technical and professional services. Her portfolio primarily encompasses information technology and engineering support contracts, with a focus on systems design, research and development, and computer peripheral equipment procurement. Lombardi works closely with program managers and technical stakeholders to align contracting strategies with operational needs, ensuring timely and compliant delivery of mission-critical solutions. While no specific contractor relationships are identified, her procurement patterns reflect consistent engagement with a broad base of vendors in the IT and engineering services sectors. She routinely collaborates with both large prime contractors and small business subcontractors, fostering competitive environments that promote innovation and performance. Her approach emphasizes transparent solicitation practices and rigorous source selection criteria, ensuring fair and open competition while maintaining accountability throughout contract performance. Lombardi’s contracting activity is overwhelmingly non-set-aside, with 92.3% of awards issued under full and open competition, indicating a preference for broad market access. However, she maintains a measurable commitment to small business participation, with 7.7% of awards designated as Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5. This reflects a balanced approach—prioritizing competition while intentionally creating pathways for qualified small businesses to contribute to federal missions. Her primary NAICS focus areas include Computer Systems Design Services (541512) and Other Computer Related Services (541519), with significant activity in Research and Development in the Physical, Engineering, and Life Sciences (541715). She also procures computer peripheral equipment (334118) and services under the broader Information Services category (519190). This technical specialization underscores her expertise in acquiring advanced IT infrastructure, software development, and scientific research support services critical to modern government operations.
