Audrey collaborates with a diverse array of IT service providers, including systems integrators, software developers, and consulting firms specializing in enterprise technology solutions. While no single contractor dominates her portfolio, she maintains consistent engagement with firms capable of delivering scalable, secure, and compliant computer-related services. Her procurement approach emphasizes performance-based outcomes, clear statement of work development, and rigorous source selection criteria to ensure technical excellence and value alignment. Her contracting patterns reflect a strong preference for open competition, with 100% of her acquisitions issued under the “No Set-Aside” category. This indicates a deliberate focus on selecting the most qualified vendor regardless of socioeconomic status, prioritizing technical capability and past performance over mandated set-asides. While she does not routinely utilize 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB programs, her process remains transparent and equitable, ensuring all eligible vendors have equal opportunity to compete. Audrey’s primary procurement focus is on NAICS 541519—Other Computer Related Services—encompassing custom software development, cloud-based solutions, IT consulting, and technical support services. She specializes in acquiring agile, outcome-driven IT services that support modernization initiatives, data modernization, and mission-critical system enhancements. Her expertise lies in evaluating technical proposals for architectural soundness, cybersecurity compliance, and scalability, making her a key player in advancing the agency’s digital infrastructure through targeted, high-quality service acquisitions.
