Emily Domagtoy

Emily Domagtoy serves as a key procurement professional within the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Agricultural Research Service, Office of Acquisition and Procurement, where she facilitates the acquisition of mission-critical laboratory instrumentation, precision environmental control systems, and infrastructure support services essential to sustaining agricultural research operations. Her work directly enables scientific innovation at field stations and experimental sites by ensuring timely delivery of high-specification equipment and maintenance solutions that underpin data-driven agricultural science. She manages a portfolio of complex, technical acquisitions requiring stringent compliance with federal procurement regulations and specialized technical evaluation criteria. Domagtoy maintains consistent working relationships with a select group of contractors, including MCKENZIE CONSTRUCTION & SITE DEVELOPMENT LLC, AEROSPACE & COMMERCIAL TECHNOLOGIES, LLC, and L1 ENTERPRISES INCORPORATED. These partnerships reflect a focus on firms with proven expertise in laboratory facility upgrades, specialized environmental system installations, and technical support services for research environments. Her contracting approach emphasizes reliability, technical competency, and performance history, favoring vendors with demonstrated experience in federal research facility contracting. Her procurement activity is exclusively non-set-aside, with 100% of awards issued under full and open competition, indicating a preference for selecting the most technically qualified offerors regardless of socioeconomic status. This reflects a mission-driven emphasis on capability over socioeconomic targeting, aligning with the ARS’s need for specialized, high-performance solutions. The primary NAICS classification guiding her acquisitions is 339940, covering the manufacture of office supplies (except paper), which in this context refers to specialized scientific and laboratory equipment—such as analytical instruments, sensors, and environmental monitoring systems—rather than general office products. Her domain expertise lies in procuring precision hardware and integrated systems critical to maintaining the integrity of USDA’s research infrastructure.
