Claire L. Andross

Claire L. Andross serves as a key procurement lead within the Federal Law Enforcement Training Center’s Glynco Procurement Office, where she oversees the acquisition of mission-critical technology and infrastructure to support federal law enforcement training operations. Her role centers on ensuring the timely delivery of custom software solutions and digital systems that enhance curriculum delivery, simulation environments, and secure communications platforms. She manages the full lifecycle of contracts—from requirements definition and market research to award and performance monitoring—with a sharp focus on modernizing training infrastructure through technically complex, software-driven procurements. Her work directly enables the agency’s mission to maintain operational readiness through cutting-edge, integrated training systems. Andross maintains consistent partnerships with a select group of specialized contractors, including DIVERSIFIED FABRICATORS & ERECTORS, INC., RANGE CLEANERS INC., BUILDERS SUPPLY INC., REYNOLDS-WARREN EQUIPMENT COMPANY, INC., and CONTENDER BOATS INC. These relationships reflect a strategic alignment with vendors capable of delivering tailored hardware, facility modifications, and operational support systems that integrate seamlessly with digital training platforms. Her contracting approach emphasizes reliability, technical compliance, and long-term serviceability, fostering collaborative, performance-based vendor engagements rather than transactional exchanges. Notably, Andross’s procurement portfolio reflects a 100% non-set-aside orientation, indicating a preference for open, full-and-open competition based on technical merit and value. This pattern underscores a mission-driven focus on securing the highest-capability solutions without socioeconomic constraints, prioritizing capability over certification status in all award decisions. Her primary technical domain is NAICS 541511 (Custom Computer Programming Services), with nearly all acquisitions centered on bespoke software development, simulation system integration, data analytics platforms, and secure training management systems. She specializes in procuring complex, mission-critical software solutions that support adaptive learning environments, real-time performance tracking, and interoperable law enforcement training technologies.
