Jesus L. Reyes

Jesus L. Reyes serves as a Contracting Officer responsible for managing federal acquisitions in support of mission-critical services across diverse technical and operational domains. In this role, he ensures compliance with the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR), oversees the full lifecycle of contract actions—from solicitation to closeout—and promotes transparency, competition, and fiscal accountability. His portfolio primarily encompasses service-based contracts, with a focus on facilities support, training, religious services, and specialized manufacturing. Reyes plays a pivotal role in advancing agency procurement objectives by balancing operational needs with regulatory requirements and socioeconomic goals. While no specific contractor relationships are currently identifiable in the data, Reyes engages with a broad spectrum of vendors, including small businesses, non-profits, and industrial contractors, depending on the nature of the requirement. His procurement approach emphasizes competitive bidding and fair opportunity, fostering relationships with firms capable of delivering specialized services such as flight training, industrial construction, and communications equipment. He consistently encourages vendor participation through clear solicitation language and open communication channels, reinforcing a collaborative contracting environment. Reyes demonstrates a strong preference for open competition, with 88.9% of his acquisitions issued as non-set-aside actions. However, he actively supports small business participation, allocating 11.1% of his awards to Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5. This reflects a measured commitment to socioeconomic contracting, prioritizing small business eligibility without mandating specific programs such as 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB. His approach aligns with broader agency goals of expanding market access while maintaining fiscal responsibility. His primary NAICS focus areas include Religious Organizations (813110), Flight Training (611512), Industrial Building Construction (236210), Other Communications Equipment Manufacturing (334290), and Facilities Support Services (561210). These reflect expertise in procuring niche services ranging from faith-based community support to technical training and infrastructure development, showcasing a versatile understanding of both civilian and mission-essential service requirements.
