Charles J. Hoyes serves as a Contract Negotiator responsible for facilitating the acquisition of technical and professional services to support federal operational needs. In this role, he leads the negotiation, evaluation, and award of contracts under FAR Part 15, ensuring compliance with competitive procedures and socioeconomic requirements. His work is central to the agency’s mission of securing high-quality, cost-effective solutions through transparent and equitable procurement practices. Hoyes primarily handles complex service-based acquisitions requiring technical expertise, including IT consulting, software development, and professional organizational services. While specific contractor names are not available, Hoyes engages with a broad spectrum of vendors, including large systems integrators, specialized IT service providers, and professional associations. His negotiation approach emphasizes value-based outcomes, performance metrics, and risk mitigation, fostering collaborative relationships with vendors who demonstrate technical competence and past performance in delivering mission-critical services. He consistently works to balance competitive bidding with strategic sourcing to meet agency objectives while maintaining contractual integrity. Hoyes exhibits a strong preference for open competition, with 90.9% of his acquisitions conducted without set-aside designations. However, he actively supports small business participation, allocating 9.1% of his awards to Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5. This reflects a deliberate commitment to fostering market diversity and enabling small businesses to compete for federal contracts, though he does not currently prioritize specialized socioeconomic programs such as 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB.
