Eugenia Bodnar

Eugenia Bodnar serves as a Contract Specialist responsible for managing the full lifecycle of federal acquisitions, ensuring compliance with FAR regulations and promoting efficient, transparent procurement practices. She specializes in complex, non-commercial contracts for specialized manufacturing and mission-critical support services, often coordinating with technical stakeholders to define performance requirements and evaluate vendor proposals. Her work directly supports the agency’s mission to secure high-quality goods and services while maintaining rigorous oversight and accountability throughout contract award and administration. Bodnar cultivates collaborative relationships with a diverse array of vendors, particularly small businesses and niche manufacturers with expertise in fabricated metal products, apparel accessories, and miscellaneous manufacturing. While no single contractor dominates her portfolio, she consistently engages with firms capable of meeting stringent technical specifications and delivery timelines. Her procurement approach emphasizes vendor responsiveness, quality assurance, and adherence to socioeconomic goals, fostering long-term partnerships with suppliers who demonstrate reliability and regulatory compliance. A strong advocate for small business participation, Bodnar prioritizes Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5, with over 72% of her acquisitions reserved exclusively for small businesses. Her contracting patterns reflect a deliberate strategy to maximize economic opportunity for small firms, consistently favoring set-aside mechanisms over open competitions. This commitment underscores her dedication to fulfilling federal socioeconomic objectives and expanding access to government contracting for underserved entrepreneurial communities. Her primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 332999 (miscellaneous fabricated metal products) and 339999 (other miscellaneous manufacturing), encompassing custom components, industrial fixtures, and specialized equipment. She also regularly procures apparel accessories and cut-and-sew services under NAICS 315990 and 315210, respectively, as well as services from religious organizations under 813110. This diverse technical portfolio reflects her expertise in managing acquisitions for both industrial and institutional needs, requiring nuanced understanding of production capabilities, material standards, and supply chain logistics.
