Jennifer Biemer

Jennifer Biemer supports the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) in procuring critical scientific infrastructure and specialized research services essential to advancing biomedical discovery. She manages acquisitions for high-precision analytical laboratory instrumentation, biologic data systems, and specialized testing services that enable cutting-edge research in precision medicine, single-cell genomics, and hematologic disorders. Her procurement portfolio aligns with NHLBI’s mission to accelerate translational science by securing mission-critical technologies and analytical capabilities from qualified vendors, ensuring compliance with federal acquisition regulations and scientific rigor. Biemer maintains established relationships with key research and service providers including the University of Mississippi Medical Center, Wake Forest University Health Sciences, TDA Research, Inc., and the Ohio Department of Administrative Services. These partnerships reflect a preference for institutions with deep expertise in biomedical research support, laboratory operations, and specialized diagnostic services. Her contracting patterns emphasize long-term, mission-aligned collaborations with entities capable of delivering complex, technically demanding solutions in controlled research environments. Her procurement activity is overwhelmingly non-set-aside, with 96.5% of awards issued under full and open competition, indicating a strong focus on technical merit and capability over socioeconomic preferences. While small business set-asides account for only 3.5% of her portfolio, she ensures all procurements adhere to fair and transparent competition principles, with small businesses occasionally selected based on demonstrated technical proficiency in niche domains. Biemer’s primary NAICS focus is on 334516 (Analytical Laboratory Instrument Manufacturing), reflecting her central role in acquiring mass spectrometers, flow cytometers, and next-generation sequencing platforms. She also regularly procures services under 541380 (Testing Laboratories) and 511210 (Software Publishers), supporting data analytics, bioinformatics, and laboratory information management systems. Her technical expertise lies at the intersection of advanced instrumentation, biologic data infrastructure, and clinical research support services.
