Daisy Pierce

Daisy Pierce serves as a Contracting Officer responsible for managing complex acquisitions across technology and communications sectors. In her role, she ensures compliance with federal procurement regulations while advancing agency mission objectives through strategic sourcing and competitive contracting practices. She typically handles service-based and equipment-related procurements under full and open competition, with a strong emphasis on ensuring transparency, fairness, and regulatory adherence throughout the acquisition lifecycle. Her portfolio includes both hardware and software solutions requiring technical evaluation and risk mitigation, positioning her as a key facilitator of mission-critical capabilities. While specific contractor relationships are not currently identifiable due to limited award data, Pierce’s procurement patterns suggest a balanced engagement with both large industry providers and small business vendors. She fosters collaborative vendor relationships grounded in performance-based contracting and clear statement of work definitions, encouraging innovation and accountability. Her approach reflects a preference for open competition, yet she actively supports socioeconomic goals through targeted set-asides, ensuring a diverse pool of qualified offerors participates in the acquisition process. Pierce demonstrates a strong commitment to small business participation, with approximately 22.2% of her awards designated as Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5. She does not routinely utilize specialized set-asides such as 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB, but consistently prioritizes small business eligibility and capacity-building within the broader small business category. Her contracting patterns reflect a pragmatic balance between efficiency and socioeconomic mandates, aligning with agency-wide goals to expand market access for qualified small firms. Her primary NAICS focus areas include Custom Computer Programming Services (541511), Other Communications Equipment Manufacturing (334290), and several information services codes (511130, 511210, 519190), indicating expertise in software development, telecommunications infrastructure, and digital content delivery. She procures a mix of custom software solutions, communications hardware, and information technology services, demonstrating technical fluency in emerging digital systems and network-enabled capabilities.
