Peggy L. Japngie Lizotte

Peggy L. Japngie Lizotte serves as a Contract Negotiator responsible for executing complex procurement actions across technical and professional service domains. In her role, she ensures compliance with federal acquisition regulations while facilitating fair and competitive contract awards. She plays a critical part in the agency’s mission to secure high-quality goods and services through transparent, well-structured negotiations. Her acquisitions typically involve engineering services, communications equipment manufacturing, and specialized professional and technical support, requiring deep technical understanding and rigorous contract administration. While no specific contractor relationships are identified in current records, Lizotte engages with a diverse pool of vendors, including both large primes and small businesses, to meet mission-critical needs. Her negotiation approach emphasizes value-based outcomes, performance metrics, and risk mitigation, fostering long-term vendor partnerships grounded in accountability and regulatory adherence. She consistently prioritizes clear contract terms, deliverable milestones, and post-award oversight to ensure contractor performance aligns with agency objectives. Lizotte’s procurement portfolio reflects a strong preference for open competition, with 100% of her acquisitions designated as “No Set-Aside.” This indicates a focus on full and open competition rather than socioeconomic set-asides such as 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB programs. Her approach underscores efficiency and technical merit as primary selection criteria, though she remains compliant with all small business participation goals under federal guidelines. Her primary NAICS focus areas include 334290 (Other Communications Equipment Manufacturing), 541330 (Engineering Services), and 541990 (All Other Professional, Scientific, and Technical Services). She routinely procures specialized hardware, system integration solutions, and technical consulting services, demonstrating expertise in telecommunications infrastructure, systems engineering, and multidisciplinary technical support. Her domain knowledge spans both commercial off-the-shelf and custom-developed solutions within mission-critical technical environments.
