Myra L. Blaszak

Myra L. Blaszak serves as a Contract Specialist responsible for managing complex acquisitions within the defense and aerospace sectors, ensuring compliance with federal procurement regulations and aligning contracts with mission-critical operational needs. She executes full lifecycle contracting actions—from market research and solicitation development to award and contract administration—focusing on high-technical, mission-essential systems. Her work supports the acquisition of advanced propulsion, power generation, and avionics components, requiring deep technical understanding and rigorous risk mitigation strategies. Blaszak plays a pivotal role in translating agency requirements into legally sound, competitively awarded contracts that deliver reliable, high-performance equipment. Blaszak maintains professional relationships with a diverse base of prime contractors and subcontractors specializing in aerospace manufacturing and mechanical systems. While no single vendor dominates her portfolio, she consistently engages with firms possessing AS9100 certification, ITAR compliance, and advanced manufacturing capabilities. Her contracting approach emphasizes competitive bidding, technical evaluation rigor, and performance-based outcomes, fostering transparent and accountable vendor partnerships grounded in quality and reliability. Blaszak’s procurement patterns reflect a strong preference for full and open competition, with 100% of her awards issued without set-aside restrictions. This indicates a focus on technical merit and capability over socioeconomic categorization, though she remains compliant with all applicable small business regulations. Her approach prioritizes mission readiness and performance over socioeconomic targeting, ensuring the best available solutions are procured through open market mechanisms. Her primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 336412 (Aircraft Engine and Engine Parts Manufacturing), followed by 333611 (Turbine and Turbine Generator Set Units Manufacturing) and 336413 (Other Aircraft Parts and Auxiliary Equipment Manufacturing). She routinely procures jet engine components, auxiliary power units, and mission-critical mechanical transmission systems, demonstrating specialized expertise in propulsion technology, turbine systems, and high-reliability aerospace components. Her domain knowledge ensures acquisitions meet stringent performance, safety, and durability standards.
