In this capacity, she plays a critical role in the agency's mission by executing contract actions and overseeing the formal solicitation and award processes to meet organizational requirements. The agency demonstrates a strong commitment to socioeconomic contracting, with a significant portion of its procurement activity directed toward small business participation.
