Alison Fecht serves as a Contracting Officer responsible for managing complex professional services acquisitions across a broad spectrum of technical and scientific domains. In her role, she ensures compliance with federal procurement regulations while advancing mission-critical objectives through strategic sourcing, competitive bidding, and contract administration. Her portfolio primarily encompasses non-construction professional services, with a focus on engineering, technical consulting, and specialized research support. She plays a pivotal role in translating agency needs into solicitation requirements, evaluating technical proposals, and awarding contracts that deliver high-value, mission-aligned outcomes. While specific contractor names are not available, Alison maintains a robust contracting ecosystem characterized by engagement with both large professional services firms and small business concerns, particularly those certified under the 8(a) Business Development Program. Her procurement patterns reflect a balanced approach—favoring full and open competition while actively integrating small business participation through 8(a) competed awards. She cultivates long-term vendor relationships grounded in performance accountability, transparency, and regulatory adherence, ensuring that contract execution aligns with both operational goals and socioeconomic objectives. Alison demonstrates a strong commitment to small business participation, with 20% of her awards directed to 8(a) competed set-asides, reflecting a deliberate strategy to foster economic opportunity and innovation among disadvantaged entrepreneurs. The remaining 80% of her acquisitions are conducted as full and open competitions, underscoring her adherence to fair market practices while still prioritizing socioeconomic goals within the bounds of statutory requirements.

She also regularly procures engineering services under NAICS 541330 and information services under NAICS 519130, indicating deep expertise in technical advisory, systems analysis, and data-driven decision support. Her domain knowledge spans interdisciplinary scientific and engineering applications, making her a key player in acquiring high-complexity, non-standard professional services critical to mission success.
