Smith’s procurement activity shows no use of socioeconomic set-asides, with 100% of awards issued under full and open competition. This reflects a deliberate focus on technical capability and operational urgency over socioeconomic preferences, aligning with the agency’s need for rapid, high-assurance sourcing of life-saving equipment. His approach prioritizes proven performance and regulatory adherence over programmatic targeting, ensuring that critical capabilities are delivered without delay.
