Josephine G Savage

Josephine G. Savage serves as a Printing Specialist within the agency’s procurement team, responsible for managing the acquisition of commercial printing services and related production solutions. Her role ensures the timely and cost-effective procurement of high-volume printed materials, including forms, publications, reports, and secure documentation, aligned with federal printing standards and sustainability guidelines. She plays a critical function in supporting agency communications and operational needs by translating program requirements into compliant, performance-based solicitations. Her acquisitions typically involve full-service print vendors capable of handling digital and offset printing, binding, finishing, and just-in-time delivery under strict security and compliance protocols. Josephine collaborates with a diverse pool of commercial printing contractors, including national providers with federal supply schedule contracts and regional firms specializing in government-grade security printing. She maintains consistent working relationships with vendors who demonstrate reliability in meeting tight deadlines, adhering to FedRAMP-aligned data handling procedures for sensitive materials, and offering scalable production capacity. Her procurement approach emphasizes vendor performance metrics, quality assurance protocols, and adherence to FISMA and NIST guidelines for secure document handling. Josephine’s contracting patterns reflect a strong preference for open competition, with 100% of her acquisitions conducted without set-aside restrictions. While she does not prioritize specific socioeconomic categories such as 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB, her process remains fully compliant with FAR Part 19 and encourages broad vendor participation through transparent, non-discriminatory solicitation practices. Her primary procurement focus lies within commercial printing and graphic services, primarily under NAICS 323111 (Commercial Printing) and 323112 (Screen Printing). She specializes in procuring secure, high-volume print runs, variable data printing, tamper-evident document production, and fulfillment services. Her technical expertise includes understanding of print specifications, color management systems, and compliance with federal standards for document integrity and archival durability.
