Charlotte McCormack

Charlotte L. McCormack serves as a Contract Specialist responsible for managing the full lifecycle of procurement actions, from requirements determination to contract award and administration. She plays a critical role in ensuring compliance with federal acquisition regulations while supporting mission-critical services across professional, scientific, and technical domains. Her acquisitions typically involve complex service-based contracts requiring nuanced technical evaluation, including consulting, research, and logistics support. McCormack’s expertise lies in structuring competitive solicitations that balance agency needs with regulatory rigor, ensuring transparency and accountability throughout the procurement process. While specific contractor names are not available, her contracting patterns reflect a preference for open competition, with the vast majority of awards issued under non-set-aside procedures. She engages with a diverse pool of vendors, including large professional services firms and mid-sized technical consultants, fostering relationships grounded in performance-based outcomes and clear statement of work definitions. Her approach emphasizes fair and open competition, with targeted exceptions for small business programs when aligned with agency objectives. McCormack demonstrates a measured commitment to socioeconomic programs, with 7.7% of her awards directed toward 8(a) competed contracts. This reflects a deliberate but limited use of set-asides, prioritizing broad competition while still ensuring opportunities for small disadvantaged businesses when appropriate. Her contracting patterns indicate a strategic alignment with federal goals for small business participation without compromising competitive integrity or mission effectiveness. Her primary procurement focus centers on NAICS 541990 (All Other Professional, Scientific, and Technical Services), encompassing a wide array of advisory, analytical, and operational support services. She also frequently procures warehousing and storage solutions under NAICS 493190, alongside management consulting (541611), technical consulting (541690), and non-biotech R&D services (541712). Her domain expertise spans administrative efficiency, logistics infrastructure, and applied scientific research, making her a key facilitator of mission-enabling services across complex operational environments.
