Edson Yellowfish

Edson Yellowfish serves as a Contracting Officer, responsible for managing the procurement process and overseeing the acquisition of goods and services necessary to support the agency's mission. In this role, he ensures that contracting actions are executed in compliance with federal acquisition regulations and agency guidelines. Regarding set-aside preferences, there is a significant emphasis on small business participation.

Additionally, the procurement patterns show activity involving Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses and Indian Small Business Economic Enterprise (ISBEE) set-asides. The procurement focus is heavily weighted toward healthcare and technical services. Primary industry specializations include offices of physicians and miscellaneous health practitioners, as well as the manufacturing of electromedical and electrotherapeutic apparatus. Technical procurement also extends to computer and peripheral equipment software wholesalers and the repair and maintenance of electronic and precision equipment.
