Davida Patton

Davida Patton serves as a procurement specialist within the Support Services Section (SS40) of the Federal Emergency Management Agency, where she facilitates critical administrative and logistical support acquisitions essential to sustaining FEMA’s operational readiness during national emergencies. Her responsibilities include managing the full lifecycle of contracting actions—from market research and solicitation to award and closeout—ensuring compliance with federal acquisition regulations and agency mission priorities. Patton primarily handles acquisitions for specialized facility support infrastructure, including custom-built showcase, partition, shelving, and locker systems that enable efficient workspace configuration in mobile and temporary response facilities. While specific contractor names are not publicly identifiable in available records, Patton’s procurement patterns reflect a consistent reliance on a network of small business vendors capable of delivering high-precision, low-volume manufacturing and installation services under tight operational timelines. Her working relationships emphasize responsiveness, quality control, and rapid scalability, with a strong preference for vendors possessing experience in government-issued specifications for emergency response environments. Patton maintains a 100% small business set-aside focus across all acquisitions, fully aligning with FAR 19.5 and prioritizing participation from 8(a), HUBZone, and service-disabled veteran-owned small businesses. This unwavering commitment ensures equitable access to federal opportunities while reinforcing FEMA’s socioeconomic contracting goals and enhancing supply chain resilience through diversified vendor bases. Her technical domain centers on NAICS 337215, encompassing the design, fabrication, and installation of modular storage and organizational systems tailored for dynamic federal facilities. Patton’s expertise lies in procuring durable, transportable, and space-optimized solutions that meet stringent federal standards for emergency deployment, demonstrating deep familiarity with materials, ergonomic design, and rapid-assembly protocols critical to mission-critical infrastructure.
