Tiffany Reval

Tiffany Reval serves as the primary procurement lead for the USDA Agricultural Research Service’s Agricultural Research Facility Management and Procurement Division, where she orchestrates the acquisition of mission-critical laboratory instrumentation, precision maintenance services, and specialized research infrastructure essential to advancing agricultural science and food security. Her portfolio centers on high-value analytical equipment and facility support systems that enable high-throughput biological and environmental research, ensuring USDA ARS facilities remain at the forefront of scientific innovation. She manages full lifecycle procurements—from market research and solicitation development to contract award and performance monitoring—often coordinating with federal laboratories and external research partners to align procurement outcomes with scientific objectives. Reval maintains consistent working relationships with a select group of specialized vendors, including Germfree Laboratories, LLC for controlled-environment research facilities, Georgia Commercial and Residential Elevator, LLC for facility infrastructure upgrades, and J’s Associates, LLC for technical support services. Her contractor partnerships emphasize niche expertise in laboratory automation, precision environmental controls, and research-grade equipment maintenance, reflecting a preference for vendors with proven technical capability and compliance with federal research standards. A staunch advocate for small business participation, Reval consistently prioritizes Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5, with 74.3% of her acquisitions reserved for small businesses, demonstrating a strong commitment to socioeconomic contracting goals. Her pattern of awarding to small, technically specialized firms underscores a strategic effort to cultivate a diverse supplier base capable of meeting the unique demands of federal agricultural research. Her procurement focus is heavily concentrated in NAICS 334516 (Analytical Laboratory Instrument Manufacturing), reflecting deep expertise in acquiring mass spectrometers, chromatography systems, and other advanced analytical tools. She also regularly procures facilities support services and specialized manufacturing equipment tied to agricultural research operations, demonstrating technical fluency in both laboratory science and mission-critical infrastructure procurement.
