B. Jill Graham

B. Jill Graham serves as a Contracting Officer responsible for managing complex acquisition programs across information technology and engineering services. She plays a critical role in ensuring compliance with federal procurement regulations while advancing mission-critical capabilities through competitive and transparent contracting processes. Her portfolio primarily includes solicitations under the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR), with a focus on software development, computer systems integration, and technical support services. Graham oversees the full acquisition lifecycle—from market research and requirement definition to contract award and administration—ensuring alignment with agency objectives and fiscal accountability. While specific contractor names are not available, her contracting patterns reflect a balanced engagement with both large industry primes and small business vendors. She consistently fosters competitive environments that encourage innovation and vendor diversity, often leveraging multiple award contracts and indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity (IDIQ) vehicles to streamline procurement efficiency. Her working relationships are characterized by a collaborative approach to contract performance management and a strong emphasis on contractor accountability and deliverable quality. Graham demonstrates a clear preference for open competition, with 69.2% of her awards issued without set-aside restrictions. Nevertheless, she actively promotes small business participation, allocating 26.9% of her portfolio to Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5 and an additional 3.9% to 8(a) competed contracts. This pattern reflects a deliberate strategy to expand opportunities for small disadvantaged businesses while maintaining rigorous performance standards. Her primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 511210 (Software Publishers) and 541511 (Custom Computer Programming Services), with significant activity in computer storage device manufacturing (334112), computer facilities management (541513), and engineering services (541330). This technical alignment underscores her expertise in acquiring mission-enabling IT infrastructure, software solutions, and systems engineering support critical to modern government operations.
