Joseph Mamer

Joe Mamer serves as a Contract Specialist responsible for managing the full lifecycle of federal acquisitions, from requirement analysis and market research through solicitation, evaluation, award, and contract administration. He plays a critical role in ensuring compliance with the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) and supports the agency’s mission by delivering high-value medical and scientific procurement solutions. His portfolio primarily involves complex procurements for surgical appliances, medical supplies, and research and development services in the physical and life sciences, requiring deep technical understanding and precise contract structuring to meet mission-critical needs. While no specific contractor relationships are identified in current data, Joe Mamer routinely engages with a diverse pool of vendors, including manufacturers of Class I and II medical devices and specialized R&D firms supporting government-funded scientific initiatives. His contracting approach emphasizes competitive solicitation practices, leveraging both commercial and non-traditional sources to ensure innovation and value. He maintains a balanced, transparent relationship with industry partners, prioritizing clear communication and regulatory adherence throughout contract performance. Joe Mamer demonstrates a strong preference for open competition, with 85.7% of his acquisitions conducted without set-asides, reflecting a focus on broad market access and best-value outcomes. However, he consistently supports small business participation, with 14.3% of his awards structured as Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5, aligning with federal goals to expand opportunities for small businesses in specialized technical markets. His primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 339113 (Surgical Appliance and Supplies Manufacturing), where he acquires sterile medical devices, surgical instruments, and patient care equipment, and NAICS 541715 (Research and Development in the Physical, Engineering, and Life Sciences), where he supports non-biotech scientific innovation through contract research services. This dual specialization reflects expertise in both regulated medical manufacturing and federally funded R&D environments.
