Liza Bodota

Liza B. Bodota serves as a Purchasing Agent responsible for managing the acquisition of critical infrastructure and operational supplies to support agency functions. In this role, she executes full-cycle procurement activities, including solicitation, evaluation, contract award, and administration, ensuring compliance with federal acquisition regulations and agency-specific policies. Her work directly supports mission readiness by securing essential goods and services across diverse technical domains, with a focus on efficiency, transparency, and value-driven outcomes. She typically handles non-construction, commercial-item procurements ranging from electrical components to climate control systems, often utilizing simplified acquisition procedures for lower-dollar-value requirements. While no specific contractor relationships are currently identifiable in the data, Bodota engages with a broad spectrum of vendors, including merchant wholesalers, manufacturers, and service providers, to meet dynamic operational needs. Her procurement patterns suggest a preference for established commercial suppliers with proven track records in delivering standardized, off-the-shelf products and services. She maintains a vendor-agnostic approach, prioritizing responsiveness, quality assurance, and delivery timelines over long-term sole-source arrangements. Bodota’s contracting activity reflects a strong emphasis on open competition, with 100% of her acquisitions designated as “No Set-Aside.” This indicates a procurement strategy centered on maximizing market participation through unrestricted solicitations rather than targeted socioeconomic programs. While she does not currently leverage 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB set-asides, her approach ensures broad access for all qualified vendors, promoting competitive pricing and innovation across the supplier base. Her primary procurement focus spans five NAICS categories, each representing 16.7% of her activity: electrical apparatus and wiring supplies, fire protection systems, air-conditioning and refrigeration equipment manufacturing, NAICS 335129 (which pertains to other electrical equipment manufacturing), and passenger car rental services. This diverse portfolio suggests expertise in procuring both hard goods and logistical support services, with technical familiarity in building systems, safety infrastructure, and fleet operations. Her domain knowledge enables her to evaluate technical specifications and compliance requirements across multiple industrial sectors.
