In this role, he executes procurement activities in full compliance with federal acquisition regulations, ensuring timely delivery of mission-critical components while maintaining fiscal accountability and regulatory adherence. His acquisitions primarily support industrial infrastructure, transportation systems, and mechanical systems requiring precision-engineered components, placing him at the center of the agency’s operational readiness efforts.

His procurement approach emphasizes vendor reliability, quality control compliance, and adherence to technical standards such as ANSI and ASME, fostering long-term partnerships with suppliers who demonstrate consistent performance and certification compliance. Nathan demonstrates a strong preference for non-set-aside procurements, with 78.6% of awards issued under open competition. However, he actively supports small business participation, with 21.4% of contracts designated as Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5.
