Donna Reinhart

Donna Reinhart serves as a Contracting Officer within the Cincinnati Acquisition Division (68HERC) of the Environmental Protection Agency, where she leads the procurement of technical and professional services critical to environmental science and regulatory compliance. Her portfolio centers on acquiring high-precision analytical instrumentation, environmental consulting, and applied research services that support monitoring, risk assessment, and data-driven decision-making. Reinhart manages the full lifecycle of complex acquisitions—from market research and solicitation development to contract award and administration—ensuring alignment with federal regulations and the agency’s mission to advance environmental protection through scientific excellence. She maintains enduring relationships with key contractors including Pegasus Technical Services, Inc., Biospyder Technologies, Inc., Boh Environmental, L.L.C., Omega Painting & Contracting LLC, and Verina Consulting Group LLC. These partnerships reflect a preference for specialized firms delivering niche technical expertise in environmental analysis, laboratory support, and facility services. Reinhart’s contracting approach emphasizes performance-based outcomes, rigorous technical evaluation, and long-term vendor collaboration to ensure consistent delivery of mission-critical capabilities. Her procurement patterns show a strong preference for open competition, with 85.7% of awards issued without set-asides, reflecting the specialized nature of the services required. However, she consistently supports small business participation through Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5, demonstrating a balanced commitment to both technical rigor and socioeconomic goals. While not heavily reliant on 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB set-asides, she actively seeks qualified small businesses capable of meeting the division’s high technical standards. Reinhart’s primary NAICS focus includes Administrative Management and General Management Consulting Services (541611), Engineering Services (541330), and Environmental Consulting Services (541620), underscoring her expertise in procuring strategic advisory, technical engineering, and environmental compliance services. She also frequently acquires professional scientific services under 541990 and data-related services under 511210, reinforcing her role in supporting EPA’s evidence-based environmental governance through targeted, technically sophisticated acquisitions.
