Jillian J. Randazzo serves as a procurement professional responsible for managing acquisitions across specialized manufacturing sectors, with a strong emphasis on apparel, medical devices, and miscellaneous industrial goods. She plays a critical role in executing the agency’s contracting mission by ensuring compliance with federal acquisition regulations while aligning purchases with operational needs. Her portfolio primarily includes sole-source and competitive procurements for finished goods and contract manufacturing services, requiring detailed technical evaluations and supply chain risk assessments. Randazzo’s work supports mission-critical equipment and apparel requirements, often involving complex specifications and quality assurance protocols. Her contractor relationships are centered on manufacturers and contract producers specializing in textile-based products and precision medical devices. She engages with a mix of large-capacity apparel contractors, small-batch medical suppliers, and niche manufacturers capable of meeting stringent federal standards. While no single vendor dominates her award profile, she consistently works with firms possessing ISO certifications, FDA registration, and defense supply chain qualifications, fostering partnerships that prioritize reliability, scalability, and regulatory compliance. Randazzo demonstrates a pronounced commitment to small business participation, with nearly 30% of her awards designated as total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5, and a modest but consistent use of HUBZone set-asides. Her contracting patterns reflect a strategic balance between broad competition and targeted socioeconomic opportunities, prioritizing small business eligibility without compromising acquisition efficiency. She actively encourages participation from small manufacturers with proven capabilities in niche production environments. Her primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 315990 and 315210, covering apparel accessories and cut-and-sew manufacturing, alongside significant activity in 339115 and 339113 for ophthalmic goods and surgical supplies. This specialization underscores her expertise in procuring technical, regulated consumer and medical products requiring precise material specifications and quality control systems. Her domain knowledge spans textile engineering, sterile manufacturing, and FDA-compliant production processes.
