Margaret M Toborowsky

Margaret M. Toborowsky serves as a Contract Specialist responsible for managing the full lifecycle of federal acquisitions, from requirements definition and market research to contract award and administration. She plays a pivotal role in ensuring compliance with the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) and supports the agency’s mission by executing efficient, transparent, and legally sound procurement actions. Her portfolio primarily involves industrial and manufacturing-related contracts, with a focus on materials and processed goods used in construction, infrastructure, and industrial applications. She routinely handles competitive sealed bidding and negotiated procurements under simplified acquisition procedures and FAR Part 12 commercial item authorities. While no specific contractor relationships are currently identifiable, her procurement patterns indicate consistent engagement with manufacturers and suppliers of engineered materials, particularly those capable of meeting precise technical specifications for polymer-based and wood composite products. She works with a diverse base of vendors, including both large-scale industrial producers and small businesses with specialized production capabilities, fostering competitive bidding environments while ensuring supply chain reliability and quality control. Margaret demonstrates a strong preference for open competition, with 80% of her acquisitions conducted as non-set-aside actions. However, she actively supports small business participation, allocating 20% of her contract opportunities to Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5. This reflects a balanced approach that prioritizes market competitiveness while fulfilling statutory obligations to promote small business growth and economic inclusion. Her technical expertise centers on NAICS 321212 (Softwood Veneer and Plywood Manufacturing), NAICS 325211 (Plastics Material and Resin Manufacturing), and NAICS 326121 (Unlaminated Plastics Profile Shape Manufacturing). She procures engineered wood products, thermoplastic resins, and custom-extruded plastic profiles used in structural, packaging, and industrial applications. Her domain knowledge includes material specifications, testing standards, and manufacturing capabilities critical to ensuring compliance with federal performance and safety requirements.
