Cheryl L. Sharp

Cheryl L. Sharp serves as a Contract Specialist responsible for managing the full lifecycle of federal acquisitions, from requirements definition and market research through solicitation, evaluation, award, and contract administration. She plays a critical role in ensuring compliance with federal procurement regulations while advancing mission-critical services through efficient and transparent contracting practices. Her portfolio primarily encompasses professional services and construction-related support, with a focus on delivering high-value, low-risk solutions that align with agency operational needs. She routinely handles complex procurements under FAR Part 12 and Part 36, leveraging competitive bidding processes to secure qualified vendors and ensure fiscal accountability. Cheryl works with a diverse array of contractors specializing in logistics consulting and HVAC systems, fostering long-term vendor relationships built on performance accountability and regulatory compliance. While no single contractor dominates her award portfolio, she consistently engages firms with proven expertise in process optimization, physical distribution design, and mechanical systems installation. Her contracting approach emphasizes open competition, clear performance metrics, and post-award oversight to ensure contractor adherence to scope, schedule, and quality standards. Cheryl’s procurement patterns reflect a strong preference for full and open competition, with 100% of her awards issued without set-aside designations. This indicates a strategic focus on maximizing market participation and leveraging broad-based competition rather than socioeconomic set-asides such as 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB programs. Her approach prioritizes capability and value over socioeconomic categorization, consistent with missions requiring specialized technical expertise and scalable service delivery. Her primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 541614 for process, physical distribution, and logistics consulting services, and NAICS 238220 for plumbing, heating, and air-conditioning contractors. She specializes in acquiring strategic advisory services to optimize supply chain operations and technical installations to support facility infrastructure. Her domain expertise spans operational efficiency consulting and mechanical systems integration, making her a key liaison between mission stakeholders and technical service providers in these critical sectors.
