Erin - Goldstein

Erin Goldstein serves as a Contracting Officer responsible for managing the acquisition lifecycle for professional and technical services across a broad spectrum of mission-critical functions. She ensures compliance with federal procurement regulations, including FAR and socioeconomic requirements, while aligning contract strategies with agency objectives. Her portfolio primarily encompasses non-clinical, advisory, and support services, with a focus on achieving value, transparency, and efficiency in procurement outcomes. Goldstein plays a pivotal role in translating program needs into legally sound, competitively awarded contracts that support operational readiness and service delivery. Goldstein cultivates relationships with a diverse base of vendors, including small businesses and professional service firms specializing in consulting, technical analysis, and organizational support. While no single contractor dominates her portfolio, she consistently engages firms with demonstrated expertise in professional, scientific, and technical services. Her contracting approach emphasizes fair competition, robust market research, and performance-based outcomes, fostering collaborative partnerships that prioritize quality, innovation, and accountability. A strong advocate for small business inclusion, Goldstein exhibits a clear preference for total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5, with over one-third of her awards designated for small businesses. Her set-aside strategy reflects a deliberate commitment to socioeconomic contracting goals, prioritizing small business participation over other categories such as 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB. This pattern underscores her focus on broad-based economic opportunity and capacity-building within the small business community. Her primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 541990 (All Other Professional, Scientific, and Technical Services), where she acquires a wide range of consulting, analytical, and administrative support services. Additional emphasis is placed on NAICS 624190 (Other Individual and Family Services) and 541690 (Other Scientific and Technical Consulting Services), indicating expertise in social service coordination, program evaluation, and technical advisory functions. Goldstein’s domain knowledge centers on non-clinical, policy-aligned services that enhance organizational effectiveness and public service delivery.
