Katie Adamow Wandall

Kathleen M. Adamow-Wandall serves as a procurement specialist responsible for managing complex acquisitions across industrial manufacturing sectors, ensuring alignment with federal contracting regulations and agency mission objectives. She oversees the full lifecycle of contract actions—from solicitation through award and administration—with a focus on standardized, high-volume procurements of specialized metal products and industrial adhesives. Her work supports critical infrastructure and manufacturing supply chains, requiring deep familiarity with FAR provisions, technical specifications, and compliance requirements for industrial goods. She plays a pivotal role in translating operational needs into enforceable contractual terms that balance performance, cost-effectiveness, and regulatory adherence. While specific contractor names are not available, her procurement patterns reflect consistent engagement with manufacturers capable of meeting stringent quality and delivery standards for metal containers, windows, doors, and industrial adhesives. She cultivates relationships with both large-scale industrial suppliers and small business concerns capable of producing custom or precision-engineered components. Her approach emphasizes reliability, technical compliance, and timely delivery, fostering long-term vendor partnerships grounded in performance history and regulatory adherence. Adamow-Wandall demonstrates a strong commitment to small business participation, with 62.5% of her acquisitions designated as total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5. This reflects a deliberate strategy to expand economic opportunity within the manufacturing sector by prioritizing small business eligibility, particularly among firms without additional socioeconomic designations. Her contracting patterns consistently favor broad-based small business access over specialized set-asides, indicating a preference for inclusive competition within the small business community. Her primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 332439 (Other Metal Container Manufacturing), 332321 (Metal Window and Door Manufacturing), and 325520 (Adhesive Manufacturing), reflecting expertise in industrial fabrication and chemical bonding technologies. She routinely sources custom-engineered metal products and high-performance adhesives used in construction, packaging, and industrial assembly, requiring precise technical evaluations and quality assurance protocols. Her domain knowledge spans materials science, production tolerances, and supply chain resilience in manufacturing environments.
