Kyle Kohnke

Kyle Kohnke serves as a key procurement professional within the 693JJ4 Office of Acquisition Management at the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration, where he oversees the acquisition of technical and advisory services critical to modernizing commercial motor vehicle safety systems. His responsibilities include managing the full lifecycle of contracts supporting data-driven oversight, regulatory compliance, and IT modernization initiatives. Kohnke specializes in securing expert consulting, training, and systems integration services that enhance the agency’s ability to analyze safety trends, deploy digital platforms, and ensure industry adherence to federal standards. His acquisitions are primarily performance-based, emphasizing outcomes in safety analytics and operational resilience. Kohnke maintains a primary working relationship with the National Institute for Safety Research Inc., a trusted contractor delivering specialized research, data modeling, and safety analytics services. His procurement patterns reflect a preference for long-term, performance-oriented partnerships with vendors capable of delivering high-quality technical expertise in safety science and regulatory support. These relationships are characterized by sustained engagement, iterative delivery, and a focus on mission-critical outcomes rather than transactional procurement. Kohnke’s contracting activity is entirely non-set-aside, with 100% of awards issued under full and open competition. This reflects a strategic emphasis on accessing the broadest possible talent pool to meet complex technical requirements, rather than leveraging socioeconomic programs. While small business participation is not formally prioritized through set-asides, vendors of all sizes compete equitably based on technical merit and past performance. His procurement focus centers on NAICS 541519 (Other Computer Related Services), reflecting heavy investment in software development, data analytics, and systems integration for safety monitoring platforms. He also routinely procures services under NAICS 611430 (Professional and Management Development Training) for regulatory compliance training and NAICS 524210 (Insurance Agencies and Brokerages) to support risk assessment and safety incentive programs. His domain expertise lies at the intersection of transportation safety, data systems, and regulatory enforcement.
