Carl V. Campbell

Carl Campbell serves as a Contracting Officer responsible for managing the acquisition of professional, scientific, and technical services to support federal operational requirements. In this role, he exercises full contracting authority under the Federal Acquisition Regulation, overseeing the full lifecycle of procurements—from market research and solicitation development to award and contract administration. His portfolio is primarily focused on non-clinical, mission-enabling services that require specialized expertise, ensuring alignment with agency objectives and compliance with statutory procurement standards. He plays a critical role in translating operational needs into legally sound, competitively awarded contracts that deliver value and accountability. Carl’s contracting patterns reflect a broad-based approach to vendor engagement, with no single contractor dominating his award portfolio. He maintains an open and transparent acquisition process, frequently utilizing full and open competition to ensure market-wide participation. His relationships span a diverse range of service providers, including established professional services firms and emerging small businesses, all evaluated on technical merit, past performance, and cost realism. He prioritizes fair and impartial competition, fostering an environment where vendors of all sizes can compete on equal footing. Carl’s procurement strategy reflects a strong preference for full and open competition, with 100% of his awards issued without set-aside restrictions. He does not routinely utilize socioeconomic programs such as 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB set-asides, instead emphasizing merit-based selection and broad market access. This approach underscores his commitment to maximizing competition and ensuring the best possible outcomes through unrestricted solicitation practices. His primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 541990, encompassing a wide array of professional, scientific, and technical services—including consulting, analytical support, and specialized technical assistance. He also frequently procures general government support services under NAICS 921190, such as administrative, logistical, and program management functions. His domain expertise centers on non-IT, mission-critical advisory services that require high-level subject matter proficiency and adaptive problem-solving capabilities.
