Jason Stack

Jason Stack serves as a Program Officer responsible for guiding the strategic acquisition of scientific and technical services aligned with federal research and development priorities. In this role, he acts as a critical liaison between mission stakeholders and contracting professionals, ensuring that procurement actions support high-priority R&D objectives. He typically oversees the full lifecycle of service-based acquisitions, from requirements definition and market research to contract award and performance oversight, with a strong emphasis on technical rigor and compliance with federal acquisition regulations. His work directly enables the advancement of scientific innovation through targeted contracting mechanisms. While specific contractor names are not available, Jason Stack’s procurement patterns indicate consistent engagement with firms possessing deep expertise in physical, engineering, and life sciences research. He works primarily with contractors capable of delivering complex technical services, including laboratory support, data analytics, modeling and simulation, and experimental design. His approach favors established technical capabilities over transactional vendors, fostering long-term partnerships with organizations that demonstrate proven competence in federally funded scientific endeavors. Jason Stack’s contracting portfolio reflects a strong preference for open competition, with 100% of his acquisitions classified as “No Set-Aside.” This indicates a focus on technical merit and capability rather than socioeconomic preferences, though it does not preclude participation from small businesses that meet stringent technical qualifications. His approach prioritizes performance outcomes and scientific excellence over mandated set-asides, aligning with mission-critical R&D needs. His primary procurement focus is exclusively on NAICS 541712—Research and Development in the Physical, Engineering, and Life Sciences (except Biotechnology). He procures services including fundamental and applied research, prototype development, instrumentation design, and scientific data management. His domain expertise spans engineering analysis, materials science, environmental modeling, and other technical disciplines requiring advanced scientific methodology and peer-reviewed validation.
