Kristin Schoeck

Kristin Schoeck serves as an Acquisition Specialist responsible for managing the full lifecycle of complex procurements, from market research and requirement development to contract award and administration. She plays a critical role in ensuring alignment with federal acquisition regulations and agency mission objectives, primarily supporting technical and scientific procurement needs. Her portfolio centers on high-precision instrumentation and analytical services, requiring deep technical understanding and rigorous compliance with FAR and agency-specific acquisition policies. She routinely handles competitive sealed bids, indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity (IDIQ) contracts, and simplified acquisitions for specialized equipment and technical support services. While specific contractor names are not available, Kristin maintains a procurement environment that emphasizes open competition and vendor diversity. She engages with a broad spectrum of suppliers, including manufacturers of laboratory and electrical testing instruments, as well as consulting firms providing technical and administrative support. Her contracting patterns reflect a preference for established vendors with proven technical capabilities, while actively encouraging new entrants through transparent solicitation practices and clear evaluation criteria. Kristin demonstrates a strong commitment to small business participation, with over 21% of her awards structured as Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5. While the majority of her acquisitions remain open to all competitors, her consistent use of small business set-asides reflects a deliberate strategy to foster economic opportunity and expand the pool of qualified suppliers. She does not appear to prioritize other socioeconomic categories such as 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB, focusing instead on broad small business inclusion. Her primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 334516 (Analytical Laboratory Instrument Manufacturing) and 334515 (Instrument Manufacturing for Measuring and Testing Electricity and Electrical Signals), indicating deep expertise in scientific and engineering instrumentation. She also procures related services including educational support and technical consulting, demonstrating a multidisciplinary approach to acquiring capabilities that support research, testing, and analytical operations. Her domain knowledge spans precision measurement systems, calibration equipment, and laboratory automation technologies.
