While no specific contractor relationships are identified, Holmes engages with a broad spectrum of vendors capable of delivering advanced computing services, including firms specializing in custom software development, cloud-enabled infrastructure, and data analytics platforms. Her procurement patterns suggest a preference for experienced contractors with proven capabilities in agile development, legacy system modernization, and enterprise IT support, fostering competitive, performance-based partnerships that emphasize innovation and accountability. Holmes maintains a strong orientation toward open competition, with 100% of her acquisitions issued without set-aside designations. This reflects a strategic emphasis on maximizing market participation and leveraging full and open competition to secure the highest quality solutions, rather than prioritizing socioeconomic categories such as 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB programs. Her approach underscores a commitment to merit-based selection grounded in technical merit and value delivery. Her primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 541519 (Other Computer Related Services), 541511 (Custom Computer Programming Services), and 517919 (Other Telecommunications Services), indicating deep expertise in bespoke software solutions, systems support, and network-enabled services.
