Jonathan F. Tew

Jonathan F. Tew serves as a Contract Specialist responsible for managing the full lifecycle of federal acquisitions, from requirement validation and market research through solicitation, evaluation, award, and contract administration. He plays a critical role in ensuring compliance with federal procurement regulations, particularly under the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR), and supports the agency’s mission by delivering essential services through transparent, competitive processes. His portfolio primarily consists of service-based contracts requiring detailed performance specifications and robust contractor oversight, with a strong emphasis on socioeconomic compliance and small business inclusion. Tew cultivates strategic relationships with a diverse base of vendors, including small businesses, HUBZone firms, and service-disabled veteran-owned small businesses, fostering a competitive and inclusive marketplace. While no single contractor dominates his award profile, his procurement patterns reflect a deliberate effort to engage capable small and mid-sized firms with proven expertise in facility services and industrial maintenance. He consistently prioritizes fair and open competition while leveraging set-aside authorities to expand market access for underserved business categories. His contracting approach is heavily oriented toward socioeconomic objectives, with over half of his awards structured as Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5. He actively utilizes HUBZone, Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB), and Women-Owned Small Business (WOSB) set-asides, demonstrating a balanced and intentional commitment to promoting equitable economic opportunity. His consistent use of these authorities reflects a deep understanding of socioeconomic contracting programs and their role in advancing national procurement goals. Tew’s technical focus centers on NAICS codes related to facility and industrial support services, including Landscaping Services (561730), Janitorial Services (561720), Solid Waste Collection (562111), and Industrial Machinery Manufacturing (333924). He also regularly procures Commercial and Industrial Machinery Repair and Maintenance (811310), indicating expertise in sustaining critical infrastructure and equipment. His domain knowledge spans operational services essential to facility readiness and environmental compliance, making him a key player in non-defense, mission-support contracting.
