James J Ambrozic

James J. Ambrozic serves as a procurement professional responsible for managing complex acquisitions in scientific and industrial instrumentation, with a focus on precision measurement, control systems, and analytical laboratory equipment. He plays a critical role in aligning procurement strategy with operational needs across technical domains requiring high-reliability instrumentation, ensuring compliance with federal acquisition regulations and technical specifications. His portfolio typically includes sole-source, competitive, and sealed-bid contracts for specialized hardware and professional technical services, often requiring rigorous engineering validation and calibration standards. Ambrozic maintains a balanced contractor ecosystem, engaging both large-scale manufacturers of industrial control systems and niche small businesses capable of delivering customized analytical instrumentation. While no single contractor dominates his award profile, his pattern reflects consistent collaboration with firms possessing ISO 9001 certification, ITAR/EAR compliance, and demonstrated expertise in calibration traceability to NIST standards. He favors vendors with proven track records in ruggedized, laboratory-grade equipment and those capable of supporting long-term maintenance and technical documentation requirements. His contracting approach prioritizes small business participation, with nearly half of his acquisitions structured as Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5, reflecting a strong commitment to socioeconomic objectives. He rarely utilizes other set-aside categories such as 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB, indicating a preference for broad-based small business eligibility over targeted socioeconomic programs. This pattern supports a robust pipeline of capable small manufacturers in precision instrument markets. Ambrozic’s primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 334513 and 334516, encompassing industrial process control instruments and analytical laboratory devices, with additional activity in professional scientific services under 541990. He regularly acquires devices for environmental monitoring, process automation, and laboratory data acquisition systems, demonstrating deep technical familiarity with sensor technologies, signal conditioning, and real-time data logging systems. His expertise ensures acquisitions meet stringent performance, safety, and interoperability requirements in regulated technical environments.
