Carol D Randolph

Carol D. Randolph serves as a Senior Acquisition Specialist within the Consolidated Executive Office (JMD) of the Department of Justice, where she leads the procurement of mission-critical information systems and digital platforms that support federal judicial operations, legal research, and case management. Her role encompasses full lifecycle acquisition management—from requirements definition and market research to contract award and performance oversight—ensuring alignment with DOJ’s strategic goals of modernizing legal infrastructure and enhancing access to authoritative legal databases. She routinely manages complex contracts for software development, database integration, and digital content delivery services, often navigating stringent security and compliance requirements under federal information technology standards. While no specific contractor relationships are currently identified in the procurement record, Ms. Randolph engages with a broad spectrum of vendors specializing in legal technology and information services, fostering competitive, transparent procurement processes that prioritize technical capability, past performance, and compliance with federal acquisition regulations. Her approach emphasizes value-based sourcing and risk mitigation, cultivating long-term partnerships with firms capable of delivering scalable, secure, and interoperable digital solutions for federal courts and legal entities. Ms. Randolph’s contracting activity reflects a uniform preference for full and open competition, with 100% of her acquisitions classified as “No Set-Aside.” This indicates a focus on technical merit and capability over socioeconomic designations, though she remains compliant with all statutory requirements and may consider small business participation where it enhances competition or innovation without compromising mission outcomes. Her primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 511210 (Software Publishers), 519130 (Other Information Services), and 541511 (Custom Computer Programming Services), reflecting deep expertise in acquiring legal research platforms, bibliographic databases, and bespoke software applications. She specializes in procuring solutions that integrate with federal justice systems, ensuring seamless data exchange, user authentication, and compliance with accessibility and privacy mandates.
