Jospeh C Persaud

Joseph C. Persaud serves as an Acquisition Specialist responsible for managing the full lifecycle of procurement actions, from requirements definition to contract award and administration. He plays a critical role in executing mission-critical acquisitions aligned with federal acquisition regulations, ensuring compliance, competition, and timely delivery of essential goods. His portfolio is narrowly focused on the manufacturing of metal containers, specifically under NAICS 332439, where he oversees solicitations for specialized packaging, industrial storage containers, and related metal fabrication solutions. His work ensures the agency’s logistical and operational needs are met through strategically sourced, high-integrity manufacturing contracts. While specific contractor relationships are not publicly detailed, Persaud’s procurement patterns indicate engagement with a diverse pool of manufacturers capable of meeting precise technical specifications for metal container production. He maintains a competitive contracting environment, fostering relationships with both large-capacity producers and small business suppliers who can deliver compliant, cost-effective solutions. His approach emphasizes performance-based requirements and clear technical evaluations to ensure quality and reliability in delivered products. Persaud demonstrates a strong commitment to small business participation, with 18.2% of his acquisitions set aside exclusively for total small businesses under FAR 19.5. This reflects a deliberate strategy to expand opportunities for small manufacturers in the metal fabrication sector, aligning with broader federal goals for socioeconomic inclusion. Though no other set-aside categories are currently predominant, his consistent use of small business set-asides signals a proactive effort to cultivate a resilient, diverse supplier base. His technical expertise centers on NAICS 332439, encompassing the design, fabrication, and delivery of metal containers used in industrial, commercial, or institutional applications. He possesses deep familiarity with material specifications, manufacturing standards, and quality control protocols relevant to metalworking industries, ensuring acquisitions meet stringent performance and durability requirements.
