Nicholas Tambasco

Nicholas J. Tambasco serves as a Contract Specialist responsible for managing the full lifecycle of federal acquisitions, from requirement development through contract award and administration. He plays a critical role in ensuring compliance with federal procurement regulations, including the FAR and agency-specific policies, while advancing mission-critical objectives through strategic sourcing. His portfolio primarily encompasses professional services acquisitions, with a focus on consulting and technical testing services. Tambasco works closely with program managers and technical evaluators to define clear, measurable requirements and selects appropriate contract vehicles to support efficient, compliant procurement outcomes. While no specific contractor relationships are identifiable in current data, Tambasco’s procurement patterns suggest engagement with a broad spectrum of vendors specializing in management consulting and laboratory testing services. He routinely interacts with both large professional services firms and small businesses capable of delivering high-quality, specialized expertise. His approach emphasizes competitive solicitation practices, ensuring transparency and fairness while fostering a robust vendor ecosystem capable of meeting complex government needs. Tambasco’s contracting activity reflects a strong preference for open, non-set-aside acquisitions, with 100% of his awards issued under general competition. This indicates a focus on selecting the most qualified offerors regardless of socioeconomic status, rather than prioritizing designated set-aside programs such as 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB. While small business participation is not structurally mandated in his portfolio, his process remains fully compliant with all small business goals and reporting requirements. His primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 541611 (Administrative Management and General Management Consulting Services) and NAICS 541380 (Testing Laboratories and Services). He consistently procures strategic advisory services, operational efficiency analyses, and independent technical testing and validation services. This specialization demonstrates deep familiarity with performance-based contracting and quality assurance frameworks in both administrative and scientific domains.
