Todd Kocher

Todd Kocher serves as a Contracting Officer responsible for managing complex acquisition programs within a federal organization focused on defense and aerospace systems. He oversees the full lifecycle of procurement actions—from market research and solicitation development to contract award and administration—ensuring compliance with FAR, DFARS, and agency-specific regulations. His portfolio centers on high-precision manufacturing and specialized material supply chains, with a strong emphasis on technical integrity and mission-critical delivery timelines. Kocher works closely with engineering, logistics, and program management teams to align contracting strategies with operational requirements. While specific contractor names are not disclosed, Kocher maintains a consistent pattern of engaging with prime contractors possessing advanced manufacturing capabilities, particularly in aerospace components and durable textile systems. His procurement approach emphasizes competitive bidding, performance-based outcomes, and rigorous source selection criteria. He fosters long-term vendor partnerships grounded in quality assurance, supply chain resilience, and timely delivery, prioritizing contractors with proven track records in regulated industrial environments. Kocher’s contracting activity is entirely non-set-aside, reflecting a strategic focus on open competition across the industrial base. This approach underscores a commitment to maximizing value and technical capability through broad market engagement rather than socioeconomic set-asides. While small business participation is not formally targeted through 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB programs, his acquisitions remain accessible to all qualified offerors under full and open competition. His primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 336411 (Aircraft Manufacturing), where he acquires airframe components, propulsion systems, and avionics integration solutions. He also routinely procures specialized textile and canvas products under NAICS 314910, including protective covers, cargo restraints, and mission-specific fabric systems. His domain expertise spans precision machining, materials science, and military-grade durability standards, positioning him as a key liaison between technical requirements and industrial production capabilities.
