Biography

From mission need to funded program

Founder & CEO · 20-Year Marine Corps Veteran

Jason knows the acquisition process from end to end. He spent 20 years in the U.S. Marine Corps as a Financial Management Resource Officer. He tied programming to budget execution, controlled funds and obligations, and worked side by side with contracting, disbursing, and program offices. He saw how requirements get funded, how that money gets obligated on contracts, and how those contracts get executed and paid.

He then took that knowledge to the small business side. As Vice President of SBIR Programs, he built an SBIR program from scratch and guided teams through every step: framing the problem, writing winning proposals, delivering prototypes, and choosing the acquisition pathway and funding approach for sole-source Phase III awards. In under seven years, that program produced 57 Phase III awards worth more than $917 million.

Few advisors have seen acquisition from the budget office & accounting classifications, the contracting table, the small business side then scaling through a large business through two M&A transactions. Jason founded Phase III Solutions to put that full view to work for small businesses, so every proposal, award and transition is built around how the government actually funds and buys.

  • Seven years leading SBIR programs for multiple federal contractors (2019–2026)
  • Phase I/II pursuit strategy, Phase III transition, and acquisition pathway design
