Alejandra Loyet serves as a Contract Specialist at the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office under the Department of Commerce, where she manages the acquisition lifecycle for critical technology and support services essential to modernizing the nation’s intellectual property infrastructure. Her responsibilities include soliciting, evaluating, and awarding contracts that enable secure digital examination systems, data integrity initiatives, and public-facing IP portals. She specializes in complex IT and facilities support procurements, ensuring compliance with federal acquisition regulations while aligning acquisitions with USPTO’s strategic goals of innovation, accessibility, and operational efficiency. Loyet maintains consistent relationships with key contractors including IP.COM I, LLC and Innovative Transducer Implementation, LLC, both of which provide specialized technical services supporting patent and trademark data management. Her contracting approach emphasizes performance-based outcomes and long-term vendor partnerships, often engaging firms with proven expertise in intellectual property systems, software integration, and digital infrastructure.

Loyet’s procurement portfolio reflects a strict focus on full and open competition, with 100% of her acquisitions conducted without socioeconomic set-asides. This reflects a deliberate strategy to maximize competition among qualified vendors capable of delivering mission-critical services at scale, rather than prioritizing small business set-aside programs. Her approach ensures access to the broadest possible talent pool while maintaining rigorous standards for technical capability and delivery performance. Her primary procurement focus lies within NAICS codes 561210 (Facilities Support Services), 541512 (Computer Systems Design Services), 511210 (Software Publishers), and 541519 (Other Computer Related Services). She routinely acquires custom software development, cloud-based IP databases, cybersecurity enhancements, and operational support for digital patent and trademark systems, demonstrating deep expertise in the intersection of intellectual property law and enterprise technology infrastructure.
