Kimberly J. DiBartolomeo

Kimberly J. DiBartolomeo serves as an Acquisition Specialist responsible for managing the full lifecycle of procurement actions, from market research and solicitation development to contract award and administration. She plays a critical role in ensuring timely and compliant acquisition of essential industrial components that support federal operational readiness. Her portfolio primarily encompasses mechanical hardware, sealing systems, and aerospace-related parts, requiring deep technical understanding of manufacturing standards and quality assurance protocols. She routinely coordinates with engineering stakeholders and supply chain analysts to align procurement strategy with mission-critical requirements. While no specific contractor relationships are currently identifiable in the data, her procurement patterns indicate consistent engagement with manufacturers specializing in precision fasteners, gaskets, and hardware assemblies. She fosters collaborative vendor partnerships grounded in competitive bidding, performance-based contracting, and strict adherence to federal acquisition regulations. Her approach emphasizes transparency, risk mitigation, and supplier capability assessments to ensure reliable delivery of mission-essential components. DiBartolomeo’s contracting activity reflects a strong preference for open competition, with 100% of her acquisitions classified as “No Set-Aside.” This indicates a focus on maximizing competition among all qualified vendors rather than reserving awards for socioeconomic categories such as 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB firms. While she does not prioritize set-asides, her process remains fully compliant with small business goals and encourages participation through unrestricted solicitations that allow small businesses to compete on equal footing. Her primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 332722 (fastener manufacturing), 339991 (gasket and sealing device production), 332510 (hardware manufacturing), and 336413 (aircraft auxiliary equipment). She specializes in procuring precision-engineered components used in mechanical, industrial, and aerospace systems, demonstrating expertise in material specifications, dimensional tolerances, and military or industry standards such as ASME, ANSI, and SAE. Her technical domain knowledge ensures that acquired parts meet rigorous performance and safety requirements.
