National Aeronautics and Space Administration

Joanne Woytek and the NASA Solutions for Enterprise-Wide Procurement (SEWP) program are being honored for transforming federal acquisition through a customer-first approach focused on accessibility, responsiveness, and continuous improvement. Under Joanne’s leadership, SEWP has evolved from a traditional contract vehicle into a trusted, mission-enabling acquisition platform that helps federal agencies obtain critical technology faster and more efficiently.
Joanne has built a proactive customer service model that includes training, webinars, one-on-one assistance, digital tools, and continuous feedback loops. By using analytics, satisfaction surveys, and stakeholder input to improve SEWP’s tools and processes, she has reduced procurement friction while maintaining compliance. Her emphasis on transparency and hands-on support also helps acquisition professionals make informed decisions with greater confidence and less administrative burden.
Under her leadership, SEWP has grown into a $12 billion-per-year, Best-in-Class contract vehicle, with more than $86 billion in obligations since SEWP V. Its streamlined acquisition experience enables agencies to deploy mission-critical technology more quickly across areas such as healthcare, national security, and scientific research. By combining operational excellence, innovation, and a deeply embedded customer-service culture, Joanne has helped redefine federal acquisition as a strategic partnership—strengthening mission delivery while setting a benchmark for responsive, customer-centered government service.
