Daphne Taylor

Daphne Taylor serves as an Acquisition Management Support Officer (AMSO), providing critical procurement support within her agency’s acquisition lifecycle. In this role, she facilitates the planning, solicitation, and administration of contracts, ensuring compliance with federal acquisition regulations and agency-specific policies. Her responsibilities include coordinating with program managers, drafting solicitation documents, evaluating vendor responses, and managing contract modifications. Taylor’s work is instrumental in enabling timely and lawful acquisition outcomes, particularly in niche technical domains where specialized service expertise is required. She typically handles service-based acquisitions requiring detailed performance specifications and outcome-based deliverables. While no specific contractor relationships are currently identifiable in the data, Taylor’s procurement patterns suggest consistent engagement with vendors possessing technical proficiency in facility maintenance and repair services. Her working relationships are characterized by a focus on vendor reliability, regulatory compliance, and performance accountability rather than reliance on a small group of prime contractors. She engages with a broad spectrum of service providers, emphasizing competitive bidding and fair opportunity across the marketplace. Taylor’s contracting activity reflects a strong preference for unrestricted competitions, with 100% of her awards issued under the “No Set-Aside” category. This indicates a deliberate approach to maximizing competition and leveraging market-wide capabilities rather than targeting specific socioeconomic categories. While she does not prioritize 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB set-asides, her process remains fully compliant with all applicable small business statutes, ensuring equitable access for all qualified vendors. Her primary procurement focus is centered on NAICS Code 811219—Other Personal and Household Goods Repair and Maintenance. This specialization underscores her expertise in acquiring services related to the repair, maintenance, and refurbishment of commercial and institutional equipment, fixtures, and infrastructure. She routinely procures skilled labor services including HVAC maintenance, electrical system servicing, plumbing repairs, and facility upkeep, demonstrating deep familiarity with technical service delivery standards and performance metrics in the facilities management sector.
