Caitlin Ruc

Caitlin Ruc is a procurement professional whose activities support the agency's mission through the acquisition of professional services and facility maintenance. The agency demonstrates a diverse procurement landscape with a strong emphasis on small business participation. A significant portion of the agency's contracting activity is directed toward Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses, which account for over a quarter of the set-aside distribution. Other socioeconomic preferences include Total Small Business set-asides, Women-Owned Small Business sole sources, and HUBZone sole sources, though these represent a smaller percentage of the overall procurement mix compared to non-set-aside awards. The procurement focus is primarily centered on administrative and management consulting services, as well as professional and management development training. Additionally, the agency procures specialized services from professional organizations, computer systems design firms, and contractors specializing in plumbing, heating, and air-conditioning systems.
