Jason Smurthwaite

Jason Smurthwaite serves as a Contract Specialist responsible for managing the full lifecycle of federal acquisitions, from requirements definition and market research to contract award and administration. He plays a critical role in ensuring compliance with federal procurement regulations while aligning contracting actions with agency mission objectives. His portfolio primarily encompasses professional services contracts, with a strong emphasis on technical and operational support solutions. Smurthwaite routinely handles complex, performance-based acquisitions requiring detailed statement of work development, risk assessment, and contractor performance monitoring. While no specific contractor relationships are currently identifiable in the data, Smurthwaite engages with a diverse range of vendors, including large prime contractors and small businesses, particularly those capable of delivering specialized technical services. His procurement patterns suggest a preference for established service providers with proven capabilities in systems design and facility management, fostering collaborative, long-term vendor partnerships grounded in performance metrics and contract compliance. Smurthwaite’s contracting activity is exclusively non-set-aside, with 100% of awards issued under full and open competition. This reflects a strategic focus on maximizing market participation and ensuring the highest level of competition, rather than reserving opportunities for socioeconomic categories such as 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB programs. His approach prioritizes value and capability over socioeconomic targeting, consistent with agency-wide directives favoring open competition where feasible. His primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 541512 (Computer Systems Design Services), indicating deep involvement in IT infrastructure, software integration, and systems engineering support. He also regularly procures services under NAICS 812930 (Parking Lots and Garages) and NAICS 621111 (Offices of Physicians), suggesting a unique blend of technical, facility, and healthcare support acquisitions. This multidomain expertise positions him as a versatile contracting professional with specialized knowledge in both digital systems and physical service environments.
