Jason Rapaglia

Jason Rapaglia serves as a Contract Specialist responsible for managing the full lifecycle of federal acquisitions, from solicitation through award and administration. He plays a critical role in ensuring compliance with the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) and advancing agency mission objectives through transparent, competitive procurement processes. His portfolio primarily encompasses service-based contracts in facility support, environmental services, and building systems maintenance, with a strong emphasis on meeting socioeconomic goals and fostering fair market competition. Rapaglia routinely handles task and delivery order contracts under GSA schedules and IDIQ vehicles, ensuring alignment with federal contracting best practices. Rapaglia collaborates with a diverse range of vendors, including small businesses, general contractors, and specialized service providers across facility operations and infrastructure support sectors. While no single contractor dominates his award profile, he maintains consistent working relationships with firms capable of delivering technical services under performance-based requirements. His approach emphasizes clear statement of work development, robust evaluation criteria, and post-award performance monitoring to ensure accountability and value delivery. A strong advocate for small business participation, Rapaglia consistently structures approximately half of his acquisitions as total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5, reflecting a deliberate strategy to expand economic opportunity. He balances these set-asides with open competitions when market conditions warrant, demonstrating a flexible yet principled commitment to socioeconomic contracting goals without compromising competition or value. His procurement focus centers on NAICS codes related to building equipment installation, plumbing and HVAC services, and environmental support functions. He frequently acquires services under 238290 (Other Building Equipment Contractors) and 238220 (Plumbing, Heating, and Air-Conditioning Contractors), as well as specialized cleaning and waste collection services under 562111 and 561740. This technical domain expertise enables him to effectively evaluate contractor capabilities in mechanical systems maintenance, facility support operations, and environmental compliance, ensuring the delivery of mission-critical services with operational reliability.
