Debra F. Boe

Debra Boe serves as a Contracting Officer responsible for managing federal acquisitions in support of mission-critical infrastructure and supply needs. She plays a pivotal role in executing the agency’s procurement strategy by ensuring compliance with the Federal Acquisition Regulation while promoting efficiency, transparency, and socioeconomic equity in contract awards. Her portfolio primarily consists of construction services and office supply procurement, with a strong emphasis on competitive sealed bidding and set-aside mechanisms designed to foster broad market participation. Boe’s approach reflects a deep understanding of pre-solicitation planning, source selection, and contract administration, ensuring that acquisitions align with both operational requirements and regulatory mandates. While specific contractor names are not available, Boe maintains a consistent pattern of engaging with small business vendors, particularly those certified under socioeconomic programs. Her contracting activity demonstrates a preference for collaborative relationships with firms that possess proven capabilities in concrete construction and wholesale distribution of office supplies. She prioritizes fair and open competition, often leveraging simplified acquisition procedures and small business set-asides to expand vendor participation and enhance market responsiveness. Boe exhibits a pronounced commitment to small business development, with approximately two-thirds of her awards designated as Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5, and one-third specifically reserved for HUBZone-certified firms. This pattern underscores her dedication to driving economic opportunity in underserved communities and aligning procurement outcomes with national socioeconomic goals. Her consistent use of HUBZone set-asides reflects an intentional strategy to support businesses located in historically underutilized areas. Her primary procurement focus centers on NAICS 238110 for poured concrete foundation and structure contracting, indicating expertise in civil construction and infrastructure projects, and NAICS 424120 for stationery and office supplies wholesale distribution, demonstrating proficiency in managing high-volume, low-complexity supply contracts. This dual specialization enables her to effectively balance capital-intensive construction needs with routine operational procurement, showcasing a versatile and technically grounded approach to federal contracting.
