Donald Beaudet

Donald J. Beaudet serves as a Contract Specialist within the GSA/FAS Center for IT Schedule Program, where he plays a pivotal role in executing streamlined procurement solutions for federal IT infrastructure and services. Responsible for managing the full lifecycle of IT-related contract actions under GSA Schedule vehicles, he ensures compliance with federal acquisition regulations while supporting agency-wide digital transformation initiatives. His work centers on facilitating rapid access to pre-vetted, scalable IT solutions—including cloud services, managed infrastructure, and telecommunications—enabling federal customers to meet mission-critical technology needs efficiently and securely. Beaudet collaborates extensively with a broad spectrum of IT vendors holding GSA Schedule contracts, particularly those specializing in computing infrastructure, systems design, and educational technology support services. His procurement approach emphasizes vendor reliability, technical compliance, and adherence to Federal Information Security Management Act (FISMA) standards. He fosters long-term partnerships with contractors who demonstrate consistent performance, innovative delivery models, and alignment with federal cybersecurity and interoperability requirements. His contracting patterns reflect a strong preference for open competition, with 100% of his acquisitions classified as “No Set-Aside,” indicating a focus on broad market access rather than socioeconomic set-asides. While he does not prioritize 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB programs, his process remains transparent and competitive, ensuring all qualified vendors have equitable opportunity to compete for task orders under GSA’s IT Schedule programs. Beaudet’s primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 611710 (Educational Support Services), which dominates his portfolio, alongside significant activity in NAICS 518210 (Computing Infrastructure Providers) and NAICS 541512 (Computer Systems Design Services). He routinely procures managed IT services, data center hosting, learning management systems, and custom software integration solutions, demonstrating deep familiarity with federal IT modernization priorities and cloud-enabled service delivery models.
