Michael A Verbitski

Michael A. Verbitski serves as a procurement professional responsible for managing complex acquisitions in technical and aviation support domains. He plays a critical role in executing the agency’s acquisition strategy by overseeing contracts for engineering services, air transportation support, and wireless communications equipment. His work ensures the timely delivery of mission-critical capabilities through compliant, transparent contracting processes aligned with federal acquisition regulations. He typically handles competitive sealed bids, indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity (IDIQ) contracts, and performance-based service agreements, with a focus on technical specifications and lifecycle support requirements. Verbitski engages with a diverse pool of contractors, primarily engineering firms, aviation logistics providers, and communications equipment manufacturers. While no single vendor dominates his portfolio, his contracting patterns reflect consistent collaboration with mid-tier and large prime contractors possessing relevant technical certifications and past performance in aerospace and telecommunications sectors. He prioritizes full and open competition, with no set-asides utilized in recent acquisitions, indicating a preference for merit-based selection grounded in technical capability and operational readiness. His procurement approach reflects a strong emphasis on full and open competition, with 100% of awards issued without socioeconomic set-asides. This demonstrates a strategic focus on technical merit and mission necessity over socioeconomic preferences, though it does not preclude small business participation when they are the most capable offerors. His contracting patterns suggest alignment with agency-wide goals to maximize competition while ensuring mission-critical performance standards are met. Verbitski’s primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 541330 (Engineering Services), where he procures systems design, analysis, and technical consulting; NAICS 488190 (Other Support Activities for Air Transportation), encompassing airfield operations support and maintenance logistics; and NAICS 334220 (Radio and Television Broadcasting and Wireless Communications Equipment Manufacturing), involving the acquisition of secure communication hardware and RF systems. His expertise spans technical domains requiring rigorous compliance with FCC, FAA, and DoD standards, positioning him as a specialist in high-reliability, mission-critical procurements within aviation and communications infrastructure.
