Violeta Tellinghuisen

Violeta Tellinghuisen serves as the primary contracting lead within the GSA/FAS/GSS/QSCBD/Assisted Contracting Branch B, where she manages the acquisition of high-precision aerospace components and advanced manufacturing systems critical to national defense readiness. Her role centers on executing complex procurements for military aviation platforms, industrial automation systems, and electronic instrumentation used across federal service operations. She ensures compliance with federal acquisition regulations while aligning procurement decisions with strategic priorities to sustain aircraft system performance and mission-critical infrastructure. Her portfolio is exclusively focused on technical, engineering-driven acquisitions requiring stringent quality controls and defense-specific certification standards. She maintains consistent, long-term relationships with key contractors including PHILLIPS CORPORATION, POWER TEST, LLC, and ONTIC ENGINEERING & MANUFACTURING, INC., all of which specialize in the design, testing, and production of certified aircraft engine parts and precision-manufactured subsystems. These partnerships are characterized by technical collaboration, rigorous performance evaluation, and adherence to defense supply chain integrity standards. Her contracting approach emphasizes vendor reliability, traceability of components, and compliance with military specifications such as AS9100 and ITAR requirements. Violeta’s procurement portfolio reflects a 100% non-set-aside strategy, with no use of 8(a), HUBZone, SDVOSB, or other socioeconomic set-asides. This reflects the highly specialized, low-supplier-base nature of the technical domains she oversees, where only a limited number of qualified manufacturers meet the stringent certification and performance benchmarks required for aerospace and defense applications. Her procurement focus is singularly concentrated on NAICS 336412—Aircraft Engine and Engine Parts Manufacturing—where she acquires turbine components, fuel control systems, combustion chambers, and other mission-critical assemblies. Her technical expertise lies in the procurement of high-tolerance, flight-certified parts that must meet FAA, DoD, and NATO specifications, ensuring operational reliability across fighter jets, transport aircraft, and unmanned systems.
