Mark E. Hastings, Ph.D., operating as a sole proprietorship under UEI G1W5JCCJ4Y55, is a forensic psychology expert who provides specialized expert witness and consulting services to the federal government. Registered in SAM.gov since March 2017, Dr. Hastings has established himself as a trusted consultant for the U.S. Department of Justice, delivering high-level professional services in the legal and forensic domains. His business focuses exclusively on providing expert evaluations, reports, and courtroom testimony related to complex legal matters requiring specialized psychological expertise.

Dr. Hastings has received nine federal contract awards, all from the U.S. Attorney's Offices within the Department of Justice, with a combined ceiling value of approximately $82,408.36. These awards are uniformly structured as non-competitive time-and-materials purchase orders without set-aside designations, reflecting the specialized and technical nature of his services that are not amenable to competitive procurement. The contracts, awarded between June 2021 and October 2025, consistently focus on expert services related to the civil commitment of sexually dangerous persons under 18 U.S.C. § 4248, with Dr. Hastings' deliverables including case evaluations, written forensic reports, consultation with Assistant U.S. Attorneys, and expert testimony in legal proceedings. Individual contract values have ranged from $1,750 to $27,250, with his most recent contract awarded in October 2025 for $27,250 with a completion date of October 28, 2027. The continuity and repeat nature of these contract awards across multiple years demonstrates the U.S. Attorney's Offices' reliance on Dr. Hastings' expertise and consistent performance in supporting federal prosecutorial efforts in specialized forensic psychology matters.
