Alexandra A. Spence

Alexandra A. Spence serves as an Administrative Specialist supporting the agency’s procurement operations, playing a critical role in facilitating the execution of small business-focused acquisitions. While not a contracting officer, she provides essential administrative and operational support to the acquisition lifecycle, ensuring compliance with federal procurement regulations, maintaining contract documentation, and coordinating with stakeholders to streamline award processes. Her work directly enables the timely and efficient procurement of specialized trade services, acting as a vital link between program offices and vendor communities. She routinely handles simplified acquisitions under the micro-purchase threshold and supports the preparation of solicitation packages for service-based contracts. Alexandra collaborates closely with a network of small business contractors specializing in specialty trade services, particularly in construction-related fields. Her working relationships are characterized by consistent engagement with vendors who hold certifications under socioeconomic programs, fostering transparent and compliant interactions. She supports pre-solicitation outreach, vendor registration verification, and post-award administrative functions, ensuring that small businesses are adequately positioned to compete and perform under federal contracts. Her procurement patterns reflect a 100% commitment to Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5, demonstrating a strong institutional emphasis on maximizing small business participation without reliance on other socioeconomic categories such as 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB. This uniform approach underscores a strategic focus on broad-based small business inclusion across all awarded contracts. Alexandra’s primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 238990 (All Other Specialty Trade Contractors), with significant activity in plumbing, heating, and air-conditioning (238220), painting and wall covering (238320), and janitorial services (561720).
