Denise A Johnson

Denise A. Johnson serves as a Printing Specialist responsible for managing the acquisition of commercial printing services and related support activities to meet agency production needs. In this role, she ensures compliance with federal procurement regulations while coordinating the solicitation, evaluation, and award of contracts for high-volume print requirements. Her work directly supports the agency’s operational efficiency by securing reliable, cost-effective printing solutions that align with quality standards and delivery timelines. She typically handles sole-source and competitive procurements for printed materials, including reports, forms, brochures, and bound publications, working closely with internal stakeholders to define technical specifications and performance requirements. Denise collaborates with a diverse range of commercial printers and support vendors, including firms specializing in digital offset, lithographic, and bindery operations. Her procurement patterns reflect a preference for established vendors with proven capacity in high-volume, deadline-sensitive print runs. While no single contractor dominates her portfolio, she consistently engages providers with robust quality control systems, secure document handling protocols, and experience in federal compliance. Her working relationships are characterized by a focus on reliability, turnaround time, and adherence to technical specifications rather than long-term sole-source arrangements. Denise’s contracting activity is entirely non-set-aside, with 100% of her awards issued under general competition. This reflects a procurement strategy prioritizing open access and value-driven selection over socioeconomic set-asides, though she remains cognizant of small business capabilities and may consider them when they meet technical and operational criteria. Her approach aligns with mission-critical needs that require scalability and consistency over targeted socioeconomic preferences. Her primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 323111 (Commercial Printing), encompassing digital and offset printing of non-book materials, followed by NAICS 323117 (Books Printing) for bound publications and NAICS 323120 (Support Activities for Printing) for finishing, mailing, and logistics services. She possesses deep expertise in print specifications, color management, paper stock selection, and production workflow coordination, ensuring delivered products meet federal standards for durability, legibility, and security.
