Georgianna L DeMarr

Georgianna L. DeMarr serves as a procurement professional responsible for managing complex acquisitions in advanced manufacturing and electronic systems. She plays a critical role in ensuring the agency’s technical requirements for precision instrumentation and industrial control equipment are met through compliant, competitive contracting processes. Her work supports mission-critical capabilities in laboratory analytics, switchgear systems, and electronic component supply chains, aligning acquisitions with federal standards for technical rigor and supply chain resilience. She typically handles sole-source, sealed bid, and small business set-aside procurements under the Federal Acquisition Regulation, with a focus on high-precision, low-volume manufacturing and specialized electronic distribution. Her contractor relationships span manufacturers of analytical laboratory instruments, precision-turned components, and industrial switchgear, as well as merchant wholesalers distributing specialized electronic parts. She engages with both large industrial firms and niche suppliers capable of meeting stringent technical specifications, fostering long-term partnerships with vendors demonstrating consistent quality control, traceability, and compliance with military or industrial standards such as AS9100 or ISO 13485. Her procurement approach prioritizes technical capability over price alone, often requiring detailed engineering validation and qualification documentation from bidders. DeMarr’s contracting pattern reflects a strong preference for open competition, with 100% of her awards issued under non-set-aside procedures. While she does not routinely utilize socioeconomic programs such as 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB, her approach ensures broad market access for all qualified vendors, emphasizing technical merit and performance history over socioeconomic categorization. This reflects a deliberate strategy to maximize competition among capable manufacturers and distributors in highly specialized technical domains. Her primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 334516 (analytical laboratory instrument manufacturing), 332721 (precision turned products), 335313 (switchgear and switchboard apparatus), and 423690 (electronic parts wholesale). She procures mission-critical components including sensors, control panels, custom machined parts, and high-reliability electronic subsystems used in scientific, defense, and industrial applications, demonstrating deep familiarity with technical specifications, material certifications, and supply chain traceability requirements.
