Darryl Anderson

Darryl Anderson serves as a Contracting Officer within the Department of Commerce’s SSSPO, where he plays a pivotal role in securing professional services that advance data-driven governance and digital modernization across federal commerce initiatives. He manages a diverse portfolio of acquisitions focused on market research, public opinion polling, and technical consulting services critical to shaping national economic policy. His work directly supports the agency’s mission to enhance operational efficiency through evidence-based decision-making, ensuring that contracts align with strategic priorities in analytics, digital infrastructure, and public engagement. Anderson routinely handles complex, performance-based solicitations under the Federal Acquisition Regulation, emphasizing outcomes over inputs and requiring rigorous contractor accountability. His primary contractor relationships center on CACI, INC. - FEDERAL, with whom he has established a consistent, long-term partnership to deliver high-impact technical and analytical services. These engagements typically involve systems design, data analytics, and specialized research support, reflecting a preference for experienced, full-service federal contractors capable of delivering mission-critical solutions at scale. While CACI is the dominant partner, Anderson’s portfolio reflects a broader reliance on established federal IT and professional services firms with proven capabilities in agile delivery and compliance with federal data standards. Anderson’s contracting activity shows no set-aside preferences, with 100% of awards issued under full and open competition. This reflects a strategic emphasis on selecting the most qualified vendors based on technical merit and past performance, rather than socioeconomic categorizations. While small business participation is not formally prioritized in his portfolio, all procurements remain compliant with FAR requirements for fair and open competition. His primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 541519 (Other Computer Related Services), 541512 (Computer Systems Design Services), and 519190 (All Other Information Services), underscoring his specialization in custom software development, data modeling, survey methodology, and digital platform integration. He consistently seeks vendors with expertise in quantitative analysis, secure data infrastructure, and public-sector polling systems to support the Department’s mission of informed policymaking.
