Carol P Marcotte

Carol P. Marcotte serves as a Supervisory Contracting Officer with primary responsibility for managing complex healthcare acquisition programs within the federal government. In this leadership role, she oversees the full lifecycle of procurement activities—from market research and solicitation development to contract award and performance monitoring—ensuring compliance with federal acquisition regulations and mission-critical healthcare delivery objectives. Her portfolio centers on high-stakes medical services contracts, requiring deep expertise in clinical operations, facility-based care delivery, and regulatory frameworks governing hospital services. She plays a pivotal role in aligning contracting strategy with agency healthcare priorities, ensuring timely, efficient, and lawful acquisition of essential medical infrastructure and support services. Marcotte’s contractor relationships are primarily with large, experienced healthcare service providers capable of delivering comprehensive general medical and surgical hospital services under performance-based contracts. She works extensively with firms possessing demonstrated capacity in inpatient care, emergency services, diagnostic imaging, and ancillary health support, often through fixed-price or cost-reimbursement arrangements. Her approach emphasizes accountability, quality metrics, and operational continuity, fostering long-term partnerships with vendors who meet stringent compliance and performance standards. Her contracting patterns reflect a strong preference for full and open competition, with 100% of her acquisitions conducted without set-asides. While she does not prioritize socioeconomic programs such as 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB, her focus remains on securing the highest quality services through competitive, transparent processes that prioritize clinical outcomes over socioeconomic categorization. Her primary procurement focus is exclusively on NAICS 622110—General Medical and Surgical Hospitals. She specializes in acquiring integrated hospital services, including staffing, facility management, patient care coordination, and compliance with Joint Commission and CMS standards. Her technical expertise lies in understanding complex healthcare delivery models and translating clinical needs into enforceable contract requirements that ensure patient safety and operational efficiency.
