Ashley N. McQueen

Ashley N. McQueen serves as a Contracting Officer responsible for managing complex acquisitions across critical federal domains, ensuring compliance with FAR regulations and advancing mission-critical objectives through strategic sourcing. She oversees the full lifecycle of procurement activities—from market research and solicitation development to contract award and administration—focusing on high-impact services and construction projects that support national infrastructure and defense priorities. Her portfolio is characterized by a balanced approach to both commercial and specialized technical requirements, often involving multi-year, performance-based contracts requiring rigorous oversight and risk mitigation. While specific contractor relationships are not publicly enumerated, McQueen engages with a diverse range of vendors, including large prime contractors with expertise in environmental remediation, commercial construction, and aerospace systems, as well as small businesses capable of delivering specialized technical solutions. Her contracting patterns reflect a preference for competitive, open-market solicitations, with a consistent emphasis on fair and transparent processes that foster innovation and accountability among vendors. McQueen demonstrates a strong commitment to socioeconomic contracting, with approximately one-third of her awards structured as Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5, reflecting a deliberate effort to expand opportunities for small businesses. She does not routinely utilize 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB set-asides, instead prioritizing broad-based small business participation through unrestricted small business set-asides that encourage competition across the small business community. Her primary procurement focus centers on three NAICS categories: Environmental Consulting Services (541620), Commercial and Institutional Building Construction (236220), and Guided Missile and Space Vehicle Manufacturing (336414). She routinely procures technical services related to environmental compliance, site remediation, facility construction, and advanced defense systems integration, demonstrating deep familiarity with engineering, environmental science, and aerospace procurement frameworks.
