Jonathan J. Fredrick

Jonathan J. Fredrick serves as a Contracts Negotiator responsible for managing complex procurement actions within a federal acquisition environment focused on advanced aerospace and engineering solutions. He plays a critical role in ensuring compliance with federal acquisition regulations while negotiating fair and reasonable terms for mission-critical contracts. His portfolio primarily encompasses full-life-cycle procurement activities for aircraft manufacturing systems and professional engineering services, requiring deep technical understanding of defense and aviation standards. Fredrick works closely with program managers, technical evaluators, and legal counsel to structure solicitations that align with agency objectives and regulatory frameworks, ensuring transparent, competitive, and efficient outcomes. Fredrick’s contracting patterns reflect a preference for open competition, with no set-aside preferences recorded in his award history. He engages with a broad range of industry partners, including prime contractors with specialized capabilities in aerospace systems integration and engineering design firms delivering technical consulting, systems analysis, and prototyping services. His working relationships are characterized by a focus on performance-based contracting, clear statement of work development, and rigorous source selection processes that prioritize technical merit and past performance over socioeconomic status. His procurement activity is evenly distributed between NAICS 336411 (Aircraft Manufacturing) and 541330 (Engineering Services), indicating a dual focus on hardware development and technical advisory support. He regularly procures high-precision components, avionics systems, flight test instrumentation, and engineering analyses such as structural modeling, aerodynamic simulation, and systems engineering support. His domain expertise spans both commercial and government aerospace applications, requiring familiarity with FAR, DFARS, and industry-specific standards like AS9100 and DO-160. Fredrick’s consistent reliance on unrestricted competition underscores a procurement strategy centered on technical excellence and market-wide competition, with no formal emphasis on 8(a), HUBZone, SDVOSB, or other socioeconomic programs. His approach prioritizes capability-driven sourcing over socioeconomic categorization, ensuring mission readiness through access to the broadest possible pool of qualified vendors.
