Angela K. Baker

Angela K. Baker serves as a Contract Specialist responsible for managing the full lifecycle of federal acquisitions, from requirements validation and market research through solicitation, evaluation, award, and contract administration. She plays a critical role in ensuring compliance with the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) and promoting efficient, transparent procurement practices aligned with agency mission objectives. Her portfolio primarily encompasses service-based contracts, with a focus on hospitality, information technology, and professional consulting services, reflecting a balanced approach to both operational support and mission-enabling capabilities. While specific contractor names are not available, her procurement patterns indicate consistent engagement with a diverse range of vendors, including small businesses, general service providers, and specialized IT consultants. She fosters collaborative relationships with contractors who demonstrate technical competence, past performance, and adherence to socioeconomic requirements, often leveraging competitive sealed bidding and negotiated procurements under FAR Part 15. Angela demonstrates a strong commitment to small business participation, with 30% of her awards directed toward small business set-asides—primarily Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5 and Women-Owned Small Businesses. Her approach reflects a deliberate effort to expand economic opportunity while maintaining competitive integrity, with minimal use of other socioeconomic programs such as 8(a) or HUBZone, indicating a preference for broad-based small business inclusion over targeted designation programs. Her primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 721110 (hotels and motels), 541512 (computer systems design services), and 541519 (other computer-related services), reflecting expertise in securing lodging for government travel, IT infrastructure support, and digital transformation services. She also regularly procures administrative management consulting and janitorial services, demonstrating a well-rounded understanding of both mission-critical and facility support requirements across public sector operations.
