Jason Rimer

Jason Rimer serves as a procurement specialist responsible for managing complex acquisitions across a diverse portfolio of technical and service-based contracts. His role centers on ensuring compliance with federal acquisition regulations while aligning procurements with strategic organizational objectives. He routinely handles solicitations under competitive and non-competitive pathways, with a focus on performance-based contracting and outcome-driven requirements. Rimer’s acquisitions span training, security services, equipment manufacturing, and equipment leasing, requiring deep familiarity with technical specifications, lifecycle cost analysis, and vendor evaluation criteria. Rimer maintains a broad network of vendors across multiple industry sectors, engaging both large-capability contractors and niche providers with specialized expertise. His working relationships are characterized by transparency, rigorous source selection, and consistent adherence to FAR guidelines. While no single contractor dominates his award portfolio, he regularly collaborates with firms possessing demonstrated capacity in apprenticeship program delivery, security system integration, electrical component manufacturing, and vehicle rental logistics. His approach emphasizes vendor reliability, past performance, and technical compliance over price alone. Rimer’s contracting activity reflects a strong preference for open competition, with 100% of his awards issued without set-aside designations. This indicates a deliberate strategy to maximize market competition and leverage broad industry capabilities rather than targeting specific socioeconomic categories such as 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB programs. His approach prioritizes merit-based selection and efficiency, consistent with agency-wide mandates for unrestricted procurement where feasible. His primary procurement focus lies in four NAICS categories: apprenticeship training (611513), truck and RV leasing (532120), miscellaneous electrical equipment manufacturing (335999), and security systems services (561621). He specializes in acquiring workforce development programs, specialized vehicle fleets, custom electrical components, and integrated physical security solutions. His domain expertise includes understanding technical standards for electrical systems, training curriculum accreditation, security protocol compliance, and equipment maintenance requirements, enabling him to craft precise statements of work and evaluation criteria.
