Nicole R. Stompor

Nicole R. Stompor serves as a Contract Negotiator responsible for managing the acquisition lifecycle for specialized aerospace components, ensuring compliance with federal procurement regulations and delivering mission-critical aviation systems. She plays a pivotal role in translating operational requirements into enforceable contractual terms, facilitating timely and cost-effective procurement of aircraft parts and auxiliary equipment. Her work directly supports the development and sustainment of national aerospace capabilities through strategic sourcing, risk mitigation, and contract performance oversight. She typically handles competitive and sole-source acquisitions under FAR Part 15, with a focus on technical evaluations, proposal analysis, and post-award contract administration. Stompor engages with a network of manufacturers and suppliers specializing in precision-engineered aircraft components, including subsystems for avionics, flight control, and propulsion support systems. While no single contractor dominates her portfolio, she consistently collaborates with Tier 1 and Tier 2 aerospace suppliers who hold relevant AS9100 certifications and possess demonstrated technical capability in low-volume, high-complexity production. Her working relationships are characterized by a results-driven, compliance-focused approach, emphasizing transparency, performance metrics, and timely dispute resolution. Stompor’s contracting patterns reflect a strong preference for open competition, with 100% of her acquisitions conducted under non-set-aside authorities. She does not routinely utilize 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB set-asides, instead prioritizing technical merit, production capacity, and supply chain reliability in source selection. This approach underscores a mission-driven focus on capability over socioeconomic categorization, though she remains compliant with all statutory small business goals through inclusive market research and fair opportunity processes. Her primary procurement focus is on NAICS 336413—Other Aircraft Parts and Auxiliary Equipment Manufacturing—encompassing custom-fabricated components, non-propulsive flight system parts, and mission-specific avionics enclosures. She possesses deep technical familiarity with aerospace manufacturing standards, including FAA and DoD specifications, and regularly evaluates engineering drawings, material certifications, and quality assurance protocols to ensure airworthiness and interoperability.
