Mark A. Rebholz

Mark A. Rebholz serves as a Contracting Officer responsible for managing complex procurement actions within a federal entity focused on energy infrastructure and specialized electrical systems. He oversees the full lifecycle of contract actions—from solicitation and evaluation to award and administration—ensuring compliance with the Federal Acquisition Regulation and statutory requirements. His portfolio primarily includes high-value, technically demanding acquisitions in natural gas distribution and miscellaneous electrical equipment manufacturing, requiring deep subject matter expertise in utility-scale systems and industrial component procurement. Rebholz ensures that all procurements align with agency mission objectives while maintaining rigorous standards for fairness, transparency, and accountability. Rebholz maintains professional relationships with a diverse range of vendors, including established contractors specializing in natural gas pipeline operations, metering systems, and custom electrical components. He engages with both large-tier suppliers and small businesses capable of delivering specialized, engineered solutions. His contracting approach emphasizes performance-based requirements and clear technical specifications, fostering collaborative vendor partnerships grounded in regulatory compliance and quality assurance. He consistently evaluates contractor past performance and capability to meet stringent operational standards. Rebholz demonstrates a strong commitment to socioeconomic contracting, with approximately one-third of his awards structured as total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5. While no other set-aside categories are currently dominant in his portfolio, his consistent use of small business set-asides reflects a deliberate strategy to expand market access for qualified small firms. His contracting patterns prioritize competition among small businesses while ensuring technical feasibility and mission readiness. His primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 221210 (Natural Gas Distribution) and 335999 (All Other Miscellaneous Electrical Equipment and Component Manufacturing), encompassing infrastructure maintenance, pressure regulation systems, metering technology, and custom electrical assemblies. Rebholz brings specialized expertise in procuring engineered systems that support critical energy delivery and industrial operations, ensuring acquisitions meet stringent safety, reliability, and interoperability standards.
