Jesse E. Stansbury

Jesse E. Stansbury serves as a Contracting Officer responsible for managing complex acquisition programs across defense and technical service domains. In this role, he executes full lifecycle contracting actions—from solicitation and evaluation to award and administration—ensuring compliance with federal regulations and mission-critical requirements. His portfolio primarily supports national security and aerospace systems, with a focus on engineering services, guided missile and aircraft component manufacturing, and specialized maintenance support. Stansbury ensures acquisitions align with strategic procurement goals, balancing operational urgency with fiscal accountability and regulatory integrity. While specific contractor names are not available, Stansbury maintains relationships with a diverse pool of vendors specializing in advanced manufacturing, systems engineering, and technical support services. His contracting patterns reflect a preference for open competition, with the vast majority of awards issued under unrestricted solicitations. He engages both large primes and small business subcontractors, fostering competitive bidding environments that promote innovation and supply chain resilience. His approach emphasizes transparency, thorough documentation, and rigorous source selection under FAR Part 15 procedures. Stansbury’s set-aside preferences are heavily skewed toward unrestricted awards, with only 6.7% of contracts designated for Women-Owned Small Businesses (WOSB). This reflects a procurement strategy prioritizing broad competition over socioeconomic set-asides, though he remains compliant with all statutory small business goals. His limited use of WOSB set-asides suggests targeted outreach rather than systemic preference, aligning with mission needs that often require specialized technical capabilities beyond narrow socioeconomic categories. His primary NAICS focus areas include 336419 (guided missile and space vehicle parts), 541330 (engineering services), and 336413 (aircraft components), indicating deep expertise in aerospace and defense systems procurement. He also routinely acquires maintenance and repair services under 811219 and, to a lesser extent, lodging services under 721110. This blend underscores a dual focus on high-technology defense hardware and enabling infrastructure, positioning him as a specialist in mission-critical, technically complex acquisitions within the national security industrial base.
