Stephen R Weiss

Stephen R. Weiss serves as a Contract Negotiator responsible for managing complex procurement actions involving advanced defense and aerospace systems, as well as specialized technical consulting services. In this role, he ensures compliance with federal acquisition regulations while facilitating fair and competitive contract awards that align with national security objectives. His responsibilities include negotiating terms, evaluating technical proposals, and coordinating with program managers to meet mission-critical delivery timelines. Weiss primarily handles high-technology acquisitions requiring deep domain expertise, particularly in guidance systems, space vehicle components, and mission-critical logistics support. While specific contractor names are not available, Weiss engages with a diverse pool of vendors specializing in defense aerospace manufacturing and systems integration. His procurement patterns indicate consistent collaboration with prime contractors possessing expertise in guided missile systems, space vehicle subsystems, and precision navigation instrumentation. He works closely with firms capable of meeting stringent DoD technical standards and supply chain integrity requirements, often managing multi-phase contract lifecycle activities from solicitation through closeout. Weiss’s contracting portfolio is entirely non-set-aside, with 100% of awards issued under full and open competition. This reflects a strategic emphasis on technical superiority and industrial base capacity over socioeconomic preferences, indicating a focus on mission-critical performance over socioeconomic targeting. While small business participation is not formally prioritized in his award patterns, his process remains fully compliant with all federal competition requirements. His primary NAICS focus centers on guided missile and space vehicle manufacturing (336419 and 336414), with significant activity in aerospace and navigation system manufacturing (334511) and process/logistics consulting services (541614). These categories reveal deep technical expertise in defense aerospace systems, including avionics, guidance hardware, and mission planning infrastructure. Weiss’s work supports the development and sustainment of next-generation national defense platforms, requiring precise technical evaluation and risk-managed contract execution.
