Joanne M. Jaworski

Joanne M. Jaworski serves as a procurement specialist responsible for managing acquisitions of food and pharmaceutical products for a federal agency, ensuring compliance with federal acquisition regulations and mission-critical supply chain requirements. Her role centers on the planning, solicitation, and award of contracts for essential consumables, with a focus on securing reliable, high-quality goods that support operational readiness and public health initiatives. She works closely with program stakeholders to define technical specifications, evaluate vendor capabilities, and ensure adherence to federal procurement standards across the full lifecycle of contract execution. While specific contractor names are not available, her procurement patterns indicate a preference for established suppliers in the food manufacturing and pharmaceutical sectors, with consistent engagement with vendors capable of meeting stringent FDA and USDA compliance standards. Her contracting approach emphasizes reliability, scalability, and regulatory alignment, fostering long-term partnerships with manufacturers who can deliver consistent quality across large-volume, high-frequency requirements. Jaworski’s contracting portfolio is overwhelmingly non-set-aside, with 94.7% of awards issued under full and open competition, reflecting a primary emphasis on market-wide competition for efficiency and cost-effectiveness. However, she maintains a deliberate, albeit modest, commitment to small business participation, with 5.3% of awards directed toward Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5, demonstrating a balanced approach that prioritizes broad market access while supporting socioeconomic objectives. Her technical expertise is concentrated in food manufacturing, with primary focus on NAICS 311812 (Commercial Bakeries) and 311511 (Fluid Milk Manufacturing), indicating routine procurement of shelf-stable and refrigerated food products. She also regularly acquires items under 311999 (Miscellaneous Food Manufacturing) and 325412 (Pharmaceutical Preparation Manufacturing), showcasing a dual-domain competency in both nutritional support and medical-grade product procurement, requiring deep familiarity with food safety, cold chain logistics, and pharmaceutical GMP standards.
