Tim Daniels

Tim Daniels supports the Naval Medical Research Unit Dayton (N41817) in advancing military medical readiness through strategic procurement of specialized biomedical and engineering technologies. While his official title is not publicly listed, his procurement activities center on acquiring advanced diagnostic, therapeutic, and physiological monitoring systems designed for extreme operational environments, including thermal stress, high-G forces, and spaceflight analogs. He manages acquisitions aligned with the agency’s mission to enhance warfighter resilience, focusing on R&D-driven solutions that bridge laboratory innovation with field-deployable medical capabilities. His portfolio includes complex, technical contracts requiring close collaboration with engineering and scientific teams to ensure compliance with military performance standards. His contractor relationships involve a diverse range of technical vendors, primarily firms with expertise in electromedical device manufacturing, analytical instrumentation, and applied life sciences R&D. He works closely with mid-sized and niche manufacturers capable of rapid prototyping and custom system integration, often engaging vendors through competitive sealed bidding or other full and open procedures. While no single contractor dominates his portfolio, his procurement patterns reflect a preference for suppliers with proven experience in defense-grade medical systems and ISO 13485-certified quality management. Tim demonstrates a strong preference for full and open competition, with 100% of his acquisitions conducted without set-asides, indicating a focus on technical merit and capability over socioeconomic classifications. This approach underscores his commitment to sourcing the most advanced and mission-critical solutions available in the market, regardless of vendor size or certification status. His primary NAICS focus includes electromedical and electrotherapeutic apparatus manufacturing, analytical laboratory instrument manufacturing, and research and development in the physical and life sciences. He regularly procures wearable biosensors, environmental stress monitors, non-invasive physiological analyzers, and custom diagnostic platforms—reflecting deep expertise in biomedical engineering and operational medicine procurement.
