Heidi Treadway

Heidi Treadway serves as a procurement professional responsible for managing complex acquisitions across advanced manufacturing and industrial supply domains. She plays a critical role in executing the agency’s acquisition strategy by ensuring timely, compliant, and cost-effective sourcing of mission-critical components and systems. Her portfolio encompasses high-precision fabricated metal products, electronic assemblies, and tire manufacturing solutions, requiring deep technical understanding of production processes and supply chain resilience. She routinely oversees full lifecycle contracting activities—from market research and solicitation development to source selection and contract administration—ensuring alignment with federal acquisition regulations and operational readiness goals. While specific contractor names are not available, Treadway maintains a balanced vendor ecosystem that includes both large-scale industrial manufacturers and small business suppliers. Her contracting patterns reflect a preference for established vendors with proven capabilities in certified manufacturing environments, while actively fostering partnerships with firms capable of meeting stringent quality and compliance standards. She engages with suppliers across multiple tiers, emphasizing technical validation, delivery reliability, and adherence to defense and industrial specifications. Treadway exhibits a strong commitment to small business participation, with 25% of her acquisitions designated as total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5. Her approach prioritizes socioeconomic contracting opportunities, consistently allocating a meaningful portion of requirements to small businesses without favoring specific categories such as 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB, suggesting a broad-based, capability-driven small business strategy rather than a targeted socioeconomic focus. Her primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 334418 (printed circuit assembly), 326211 (tire manufacturing), 326212 (tire retreading), and 332999 (miscellaneous fabricated metal products). These categories reflect expertise in electronics manufacturing, rubber product fabrication, and precision metal component production. She regularly sources items requiring adherence to MIL-SPEC, ASTM, or SAE standards, demonstrating specialized knowledge in industrial engineering and supply chain logistics for technical hardware applications.
