Johnny M Hisaw

Johnny M. Hisaw serves as a Procurement Specialist responsible for managing complex acquisitions across scientific, technical, and analytical instrumentation sectors. He plays a critical role in executing full and open competitions while strategically leveraging small business set-asides to meet federal socioeconomic goals. Hisaw handles a diverse portfolio of contract actions, including sealed bids, requests for proposals, and indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity (IDIQ) instruments, ensuring compliance with FAR Part 12 and Part 15 procurement regulations. His work supports mission-critical capabilities in research, testing, and laboratory operations through the acquisition of high-precision equipment and technical services. Hisaw maintains a balanced approach to contractor engagement, partnering with both large-tier manufacturers of specialized instrumentation and a robust network of small businesses capable of delivering niche technical solutions. While no single contractor dominates his portfolio, his contracting patterns reflect consistent collaboration with firms possessing expertise in analytical device manufacturing, laboratory automation, and scientific R&D support. He prioritizes vendors with proven technical capability, quality assurance certifications, and the capacity to meet stringent performance and delivery timelines. Hisaw demonstrates a strong commitment to small business participation, with nearly 30% of his acquisitions structured as Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5, and a targeted 1.3% allocated to 8(a) competed contracts. His procurement strategy aligns with federal mandates to expand economic opportunity, favoring small businesses with demonstrated technical proficiency in specialized manufacturing and scientific services. He avoids excessive reliance on non-set-aside mechanisms, ensuring meaningful small business engagement across his acquisition lifecycle. His primary procurement focus centers on NAICS 334516 (Analytical Laboratory Instrument Manufacturing) and related codes, including 334515 and 334519, reflecting deep expertise in procuring precision measuring, testing, and control devices. He also regularly acquires research and development services under NAICS 541715, supporting engineering and physical science innovation. His technical domain expertise spans laboratory instrumentation, electrical signal analysis systems, and scientific data acquisition platforms, positioning him as a trusted advisor in mission-critical scientific procurement.
