Michael Olsakowski

Michael Olsakowski serves as a procurement specialist within DLA Troop Support, supporting the Department of Defense’s mission to sustain operational readiness through the acquisition of critical logistical and environmental systems. Though his formal title is not listed, his procurement activities center on specialized manufacturing contracts essential to troop welfare and field deployability, including climate control, air handling, and mission-critical packaging solutions. He plays a pivotal role in executing contract actions under SPE8E8, ensuring timely delivery of high-performance equipment that supports military operations in austere environments. Olsakowski maintains consistent relationships with key contractors including WESTLAND TECHNOLOGIES, INC., ENGINEERED COIL COMPANY, ECI DEFENSE GROUP, INC., AEROSPACE & COMMERCIAL TECHNOLOGIES, LLC, and JOHNSON CONTROLS NAVY SYSTEMS, LLC. These partnerships reflect a focus on industrial manufacturers with proven capabilities in thermal systems, engineered components, and defense-grade fabrication. His contracting patterns indicate a preference for established vendors with certified quality systems and defense supply chain experience, often leveraging firm-fixed-price and performance-based acquisition strategies. His procurement portfolio is overwhelmingly non-set-aside, with 90.9% of awards issued under full and open competition, reflecting a mission-driven emphasis on technical capability over socioeconomic preferences. However, he maintains a modest but consistent commitment to small business participation, with 9.1% of awards directed under Total Small Business Set-Asides in accordance with FAR 19.5. Notably, his primary NAICS focus lies in specialty food and beverage manufacturing—specifically 311422 (Specialty Canning), 311941 (Prepared Sauce Manufacturing), and 312112 (Bottled Water Manufacturing)—indicating a unique procurement niche in durable, shelf-stable rations and troop sustainment consumables. This suggests deep expertise in logistics-ready food systems, packaging integrity standards, and defense-specific nutrition requirements, aligning with DLA Troop Support’s mandate to ensure force readiness through reliable, field-deployable sustainment solutions.
