Tina M. Grujic

Tina M. Grujic serves as a Contract Specialist responsible for managing the full lifecycle of federal acquisitions, from requirement analysis and market research through solicitation, evaluation, award, and contract administration. She plays a critical role in ensuring compliance with the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) and supports the agency’s mission by delivering specialized industrial and technical products through transparent, competitive procurement processes. Her portfolio primarily involves complex procurements in advanced manufacturing sectors, requiring deep technical understanding and precise contract language to address performance, quality, and delivery standards. While specific contractor names are not available, Tina consistently engages with a diverse pool of vendors, including both large-tier manufacturers and small businesses capable of meeting stringent technical specifications. Her contracting patterns reflect a preference for open competition, with the majority of awards issued under unrestricted solicitations. She fosters collaborative relationships with suppliers who demonstrate proven capability in precision manufacturing, chemical formulation, and aerospace component production, often requiring rigorous qualification and inspection protocols. Tina demonstrates a strong commitment to small business participation, with nearly 18% of her awards structured as Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5. While she does not routinely utilize 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB set-asides, her consistent use of small business set-asides reflects a deliberate strategy to expand market access for qualified small manufacturers. Her approach balances socioeconomic goals with mission-critical needs, ensuring that small businesses compete on equal footing for technically demanding contracts. Her primary procurement focus centers on NAICS 334417 (Electronic Connector Manufacturing), followed by 325510 (Paint and Coating Manufacturing) and 336413 (Other Aircraft Parts and Auxiliary Equipment Manufacturing). She specializes in procuring mission-critical components such as high-reliability electrical connectors, protective coatings for aerospace applications, and specialized aircraft subsystems, requiring expertise in materials science, environmental compliance, and defense-grade quality standards.
