Donna Blossom

Donna L. Blossom serves as a Contracting Officer responsible for managing the acquisition lifecycle for a diverse portfolio of healthcare and support services contracts. Her role centers on ensuring compliance with federal procurement regulations while advancing mission-critical objectives through timely, transparent, and competitive contracting processes. She typically handles commercial item acquisitions under FAR Part 12, as well as service-based contracts under FAR Part 37, with a strong emphasis on solicitation development, source selection, and contract administration. Her work supports the procurement of specialized medical equipment and allied health services essential to public health infrastructure. While specific contractor relationships are not publicly enumerated, Blossom maintains a broad network of vendors spanning medical device manufacturers, clinical support providers, and professional services firms. Her contracting patterns reflect a preference for open competition, with the majority of awards issued under unrestricted solicitations. She engages regularly with both large-capability contractors and small businesses, fostering fair and equitable access to federal opportunities through structured evaluation criteria and clear performance expectations. Blossom demonstrates a strong commitment to socioeconomic contracting, with 89.4% of her awards issued without set-aside restrictions. Among set-aside contracts, she prioritizes Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5, followed by Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) set-asides, reflecting a deliberate alignment with federal goals to promote veteran entrepreneurship. Limited but intentional use of Local Area and EDWOSB set-asides indicates a nuanced understanding of geographic and socioeconomic equity in procurement. Her primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 339113 (Surgical Appliance and Supplies Manufacturing) and 339112 (Surgical and Medical Instrument Manufacturing), indicating deep expertise in the medical device supply chain. She also frequently procures services under NAICS 621399 and 541940, demonstrating proficiency in clinical support, veterinary care, and educational services contracting. Her technical domain knowledge encompasses regulatory compliance for Class I and II medical devices, quality system requirements under 21 CFR Part 820, and performance-based service acquisition methodologies.
