William Levitch

William Levitch serves as a Supervisory Acquisition Management Specialist at the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), where he oversees the planning, execution, and compliance of complex procurement actions aligned with NOAA’s mission to advance environmental science and maritime safety. He manages a diverse portfolio of acquisitions spanning technical services, environmental monitoring systems, and operational support contracts, ensuring alignment with federal acquisition regulations and agency strategic priorities. His role is central to enabling NOAA’s scientific operations through timely, compliant, and mission-critical contracting. Levitch maintains established relationships with a select group of contractors including Wisconsin Educational Communications Board, Tronconi Segarra & Associates LLP, JNB Services LLC, Pure Enviro-Management, LLC, and The Regents of the University of Colorado. These partnerships reflect a preference for specialized service providers in environmental consulting, port and harbor operations, and research support, often involving technical expertise in oceanographic instrumentation, data systems, and coastal infrastructure maintenance. His contracting patterns suggest a reliance on trusted vendors with proven capacity in niche scientific and operational domains. A strong commitment to small business participation defines Levitch’s procurement approach, with over 71% of his awards designated as total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5. This reflects a deliberate strategy to foster economic opportunity and enhance innovation through engagement with small, disadvantaged, and locally based firms. His consistent use of set-asides underscores NOAA’s broader socioeconomic goals and his active role in advancing equitable contracting practices. His primary NAICS focus areas include 541620 (Environmental Consulting Services), 488310 (Port and Harbor Operations), and 811310 (Commercial and Industrial Machinery Repair), indicating deep specialization in environmental compliance, coastal operations support, and maintenance of scientific equipment. He routinely procures services related to marine data collection systems, ecosystem monitoring, and environmental remediation, demonstrating technical fluency in NOAA’s core scientific and operational domains.
