Evelyn M. Johnson

Evelyn M. Johnson serves as a Contract Specialist responsible for managing the full lifecycle of procurement actions for specialized chemical and diagnostic products. She plays a critical role in ensuring compliance with federal acquisition regulations while aligning contracting activities with mission-critical scientific and public health objectives. Her portfolio primarily involves competitive sealed bidding and negotiated procurements under FAR Part 15, with a focus on complex technical requirements for laboratory and clinical applications. Evelyn works closely with program managers, technical evaluators, and legal counsel to structure solicitations that balance innovation, affordability, and regulatory adherence. Evelyn cultivates relationships with a diverse base of manufacturers and suppliers specializing in chemical formulations and diagnostic reagents. While no single contractor dominates her portfolio, she consistently engages with mid-sized and large firms possessing cGMP certification, ISO 13485 compliance, and validated manufacturing processes. Her contracting approach emphasizes performance-based requirements, clear technical specifications, and robust quality assurance clauses to ensure product consistency and reliability across supply chains. Evelyn’s procurement patterns reflect a strong preference for full and open competition, with 100% of her awards issued without set-asides. This indicates a strategic focus on technical capability and scale over socioeconomic classifications, though she remains compliant with all small business programs and may consider small business subcontracting plans when evaluating proposals. Her approach prioritizes mission need and product performance, aligning with agency priorities that demand high-volume, high-precision chemical and diagnostic inputs. Her primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 325413 (In-Vitro Diagnostic Substance Manufacturing) and 325998 (All Other Miscellaneous Chemical Product and Preparation Manufacturing). She regularly acquires clinical reagents, assay kits, purification chemicals, and specialized formulations used in diagnostic testing and laboratory research. Evelyn’s expertise includes interpreting complex technical data sheets, evaluating analytical validation protocols, and ensuring adherence to FDA and CDC guidelines for in-vitro diagnostic products.
