Duc Quang

Duc Quang serves as a Contract Specialist responsible for managing the full lifecycle of federal acquisitions, from requirements validation and market research through solicitation, evaluation, award, and contract administration. Within the agency’s procurement mission, Duc ensures compliance with the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) while advancing mission-critical supply chain objectives. He primarily handles commercial food manufacturing contracts, focusing on perishable and dairy-based products essential to institutional feeding programs. His expertise lies in structuring solicitations that balance regulatory rigor with operational efficiency, ensuring timely delivery of high-quality, safety-compliant food products to federal facilities. While specific contractor names are not available, Duc maintains a consistent engagement pattern with vendors specializing in perishable food processing and fluid milk production. He fosters collaborative relationships with both large-scale manufacturers and small business suppliers, emphasizing transparency, performance metrics, and contract compliance. His procurement approach prioritizes vendor reliability, food safety standards, and supply chain resilience, often requiring adherence to USDA and FDA regulatory frameworks. Duc demonstrates a strong commitment to small business participation, with 25% of his acquisitions structured as Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5. Although the majority of his awards are unrestricted, his deliberate use of small business set-asides reflects a strategic intent to expand economic opportunity within the food manufacturing sector. He does not routinely utilize 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB set-asides, indicating a focus on broad-based small business eligibility rather than targeted socioeconomic categories. His primary procurement focus centers on NAICS 311991 (Perishable Prepared Food Manufacturing), accounting for 87.5% of his activity, and NAICS 311511 (Fluid Milk Manufacturing), representing 12.5%. He specializes in acquiring ready-to-serve meals, refrigerated dairy products, and other temperature-controlled food items requiring strict shelf-life and handling protocols. This domain expertise ensures that acquisitions align with nutritional guidelines and logistical constraints inherent in federal feeding programs.
