Douglas M. White

Douglas M. White serves as a Contract Negotiator responsible for facilitating the execution of complex procurement actions across a broad spectrum of technical and industrial domains. In this role, he ensures compliance with federal acquisition regulations while balancing mission needs with fiscal responsibility. His responsibilities include drafting and negotiating contract terms, evaluating proposals, resolving pre-award disputes, and managing post-award modifications. White primarily handles competitive acquisitions under FAR Part 15, with a focus on service-based and specialized manufacturing contracts that require technical diligence and risk mitigation. While no specific contractor relationships are identified, White’s negotiation patterns suggest a preference for engaging with established industry vendors capable of delivering high-precision technical solutions. He routinely works with firms possessing deep domain expertise in instrumentation, power systems, and custom software development, fostering partnerships grounded in performance-based outcomes and clear deliverable specifications. His approach emphasizes transparency, competitive fairness, and contract clarity to minimize disputes and ensure timely delivery. White’s procurement activity reflects a strong orientation toward open competition, with 93.8% of awards issued under non-set-aside conditions. Nevertheless, he consistently supports small business participation, allocating 6.3% of contracts to Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5. This demonstrates a measured commitment to socioeconomic goals without compromising acquisition efficiency or technical requirements. His primary procurement focus centers on NAICS 511210 (Software Publishers), indicating a significant emphasis on software development, licensing, and digital infrastructure solutions. Additional activity includes instrumentation for electrical measurement (334515), power transformer manufacturing (335311), custom computer programming (541511), and miscellaneous fabricated metal products (332999), underscoring his expertise in procuring both hardware and software systems for mission-critical applications.
