Debbie F Scarborough

Debbie F. Scarborough serves as a Contract Specialist responsible for managing the full lifecycle of federal acquisitions, from requirements development through contract award and administration. She plays a critical role in ensuring compliance with the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) while advancing agency mission objectives through strategic sourcing. Her portfolio primarily encompasses professional, scientific, and business support services, with a focus on advertising, technical consulting, and medical equipment distribution. She works closely with program managers to define solicitation requirements, evaluate proposals, and negotiate terms that balance cost, performance, and risk. While specific contractor names are not available, her contracting patterns reflect a consistent engagement with a diverse pool of vendors, including both large firms and small businesses, particularly in the professional services and wholesale distribution sectors. Her approach emphasizes competitive solicitation methods and transparent evaluation criteria, fostering fair and open access to federal opportunities. She maintains collaborative relationships with vendors who demonstrate technical proficiency, past performance, and regulatory compliance. Debbie exhibits a strong commitment to small business participation, with 25% of her awards designated as Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5. She does not routinely utilize specialized socioeconomic set-asides such as 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB, instead prioritizing broad small business eligibility. This pattern suggests a strategic emphasis on expanding opportunities for general small businesses rather than targeted socioeconomic categories. Her primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 541810 (Advertising Agencies), reflecting expertise in marketing, communications, and public outreach services. She also regularly procures services under NAICS 541990 (Other Professional Services), 561499 (Other Business Support Services), and 423450 (Medical Equipment Wholesalers), indicating a technical domain spanning public information campaigns, operational support, and healthcare supply chain logistics. Her work demonstrates a nuanced understanding of service-based contracting and the unique compliance requirements of professional and medical procurement.
