Gregory Benjamin

Gregory B. Benjamin serves as a key procurement professional responsible for managing complex acquisitions within the aerospace and industrial maintenance sectors. His work centers on securing critical components and maintenance services essential to national defense and aviation infrastructure, ensuring timely delivery of mission-critical systems. He typically handles sole-source and competitive procurements under FAR Part 15, with a focus on engineering-intensive contracts for aircraft subsystems and industrial equipment. His role is integral to sustaining operational readiness through strategic sourcing of high-reliability components and specialized repair services. Benjamin maintains a broad network of Tier 1 and Tier 2 suppliers specializing in aircraft powertrain systems, fluid power actuators, and industrial machinery maintenance. While no single contractor dominates his portfolio, he consistently engages manufacturers with AS9100 and ISO 9001 certifications, as well as firms with demonstrated capability in military-grade component fabrication. His contracting approach emphasizes technical compliance, supply chain resilience, and performance-based service agreements, fostering long-term vendor partnerships built on quality assurance and delivery reliability. His procurement patterns reflect a strong preference for open competition, with 90.6% of awards issued without set-aside restrictions. The remaining 9.4% are structured as Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5, indicating a measured but deliberate commitment to small business participation without compromising technical requirements. He does not routinely utilize 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB set-asides, instead prioritizing capability-driven competition while ensuring small businesses have equitable access to opportunities aligned with their technical capacities. Benjamin’s primary focus lies in NAICS 336413 and 336412, where he procures advanced aircraft components, engine parts, and auxiliary systems critical to flight safety and performance. He also frequently acquires maintenance services under NAICS 811310 for commercial and industrial machinery, demonstrating expertise in both manufacturing and lifecycle support. His technical domain spans propulsion systems, fluid power actuators, and HVAC integration for defense and aerospace platforms, requiring deep familiarity with MIL-SPEC standards and engineering change management processes.
