Robert C Reekie

Robert C. Reekie serves as a Contract Specialist responsible for managing the full lifecycle of federal acquisitions, from market research and solicitation development to contract award and administration. His role is central to ensuring compliance with federal procurement regulations while advancing agency mission objectives through timely and cost-effective contracting solutions. He typically handles complex procurements involving specialized equipment, technical services, and facility-related contracts, often requiring detailed technical evaluations and risk mitigation strategies. Reekie works closely with program offices to translate operational needs into clear, enforceable contract requirements that promote competition and accountability. Reekie cultivates relationships with a diverse range of vendors, including manufacturers of analytical laboratory instruments, food processing firms, building equipment contractors, and recreational facility operators. While no single contractor dominates his portfolio, he consistently engages both large primes and small businesses through competitive sealed bidding and negotiated procurements. His approach emphasizes transparency, fair competition, and performance-based outcomes, fostering long-term vendor partnerships grounded in compliance and reliability. Reekie’s contracting patterns reflect a strong preference for unrestricted, open competition, with 100% of his awards designated as “No Set-Aside.” This indicates a focus on selecting the most qualified offeror regardless of socioeconomic status, rather than reserving awards for specific categories such as 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB firms. While he does not prioritize set-asides, his processes remain fully compliant with all small business participation requirements and encourage broad vendor access through clear solicitation language and fair evaluation criteria. His primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 334516 (Analytical Laboratory Instrument Manufacturing), where he acquires precision testing and diagnostic equipment; NAICS 311119 (Other Animal Food Manufacturing) for specialized feed and nutrition products; NAICS 238290 (Other Building Equipment Contractors) for facility maintenance and integration services; and NAICS 713940 (Fitness and Recreational Sports Centers) for operational and infrastructure support. This blend of technical, industrial, and service-based acquisitions demonstrates expertise across both high-tech manufacturing and facility-dependent operations.
