Julie M Lewis

Julie M. Lewis serves as a Contract Specialist responsible for managing complex acquisition processes within the defense and defense-related industrial sectors. She plays a pivotal role in executing full lifecycle procurement activities—from market research and solicitation development to contract award and administration—ensuring compliance with the Federal Acquisition Regulation and national security requirements. Her portfolio centers on high-precision manufacturing contracts for military systems, emphasizing technical rigor, supply chain integrity, and timely delivery of mission-critical equipment. Lewis routinely handles competitive and non-competitive acquisitions for specialized defense components, working closely with engineering and logistics stakeholders to align procurement outcomes with operational readiness goals. While specific contractor names are not available, her procurement patterns indicate consistent engagement with Tier 1 and Tier 2 manufacturers specializing in armored vehicle systems, powertrain components, and ordnance manufacturing. She fosters collaborative relationships with industrial base partners capable of meeting stringent military specifications, including those requiring ITAR compliance and quality assurance under AS9100 or ISO 9001 standards. Her approach emphasizes performance-based contracting and risk mitigation through robust source selection criteria. Julie demonstrates a strong commitment to small business participation, with 22.9% of her awards designated as Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5. Her contracting patterns reflect a deliberate focus on leveraging small business capabilities within the defense industrial base, prioritizing eligibility under the Small Business Administration’s general small business program rather than niche socioeconomic categories like 8(a) or HUBZone. This reflects a strategic alignment with broader DoD initiatives to expand the pool of qualified small manufacturers. Her primary procurement focus lies in four key NAICS codes: 336992 (Military Armored Vehicle Manufacturing), 336350 (Powertrain Parts), 332994 (Small Arms and Ordnance), and 336112 (Motor Vehicle Manufacturing). These reflect deep expertise in land systems and combat vehicle components, requiring specialized knowledge of ballistic protection, ammunition compatibility, and military-grade materials. Lewis’s technical domain expertise ensures acquisitions meet rigorous performance, safety, and interoperability standards for U.S. military platforms.
