John Lisiewicz

John Lisiewicz serves as a procurement professional specializing in research and development acquisitions within the physical, engineering, and life sciences domains. He is responsible for managing the full lifecycle of complex scientific and technical contracts, ensuring alignment with federal acquisition regulations and mission-critical R&D objectives. His work supports the development of advanced technologies through competitive solicitation processes, including broad agency announcements, research grants, and other non-traditional contracting vehicles. Lisiewicz plays a pivotal role in translating scientific priorities into executable procurement strategies that foster innovation and technical excellence. His contractor relationships are centered on high-caliber research institutions, engineering firms, and scientific service providers with demonstrated expertise in experimental design, data analysis, and advanced prototyping. While no single vendor dominates his portfolio, he consistently engages with organizations possessing specialized capabilities in laboratory automation, computational modeling, and analytical instrumentation. His approach emphasizes merit-based competition, technical merit evaluation, and performance-based contract structures to ensure outcomes-driven deliverables. Lisiewicz’s contracting patterns reflect a strong preference for open, unrestricted competition, with 100% of his awards issued under the “No Set-Aside” category. This indicates a focus on technical capability over socioeconomic classifications, prioritizing the most qualified offerors regardless of business size or certification status. While he does not systematically target 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB programs, his process remains fully compliant with all socioeconomic requirements and encourages broad participation through transparent, merit-based evaluations. His primary focus is on NAICS 541712, encompassing R&D services in physics, engineering, chemistry, and applied life sciences. He procures a wide range of technical services including laboratory testing, sensor development, computational simulations, and engineering prototyping. His expertise lies in managing acquisitions for cutting-edge scientific infrastructure and mission-critical research initiatives requiring deep technical vetting and rigorous performance metrics.
