Gerrid Gaboriault

Gerrid Gaboriault serves as a Contract Specialist within the Mitigation SECTION (MIT60) of the Federal Emergency Management Agency under the Department of Homeland Security, where they play a pivotal role in executing strategic acquisitions to advance national resilience initiatives. Responsible for managing the full lifecycle of procurement actions, Gaboriault specializes in securing consulting services that support data-driven risk modeling, flood hazard analysis, and operational sustainability for the National Flood Insurance Program. Their acquisitions are mission-critical, ensuring the agency has access to expert analytical frameworks and technical advisory services necessary to inform policy, enhance community preparedness, and optimize federal mitigation investments. Gaboriault collaborates with a focused network of management consulting firms and technical advisors, primarily engaged through competed procurements to deliver strategic planning, risk assessment methodologies, and program evaluation services. While no single contractor dominates their portfolio, they maintain consistent working relationships with firms possessing deep expertise in public sector resilience planning and federal program administration. Their contracting approach emphasizes transparency, competition, and compliance with federal acquisition regulations, fostering long-term vendor partnerships grounded in technical excellence and mission alignment. Gaboriault demonstrates a strong commitment to socioeconomic contracting, with approximately one-third of their awards structured as 8(a) competed set-asides, reflecting a deliberate effort to expand opportunities for small disadvantaged businesses. The remaining two-thirds of acquisitions are conducted as full and open competitions, aligning with agency priorities for broad market engagement while ensuring equitable access for qualified small businesses. This balanced approach supports both mission effectiveness and federal small business goals. Their procurement focus is exclusively centered on NAICS 541611—Administrative Management and General Management Consulting Services—reflecting a specialized domain in strategic advisory, program design, and operational analytics for federal mitigation programs. Gaboriault’s work ensures the agency leverages high-quality consulting expertise to strengthen national preparedness through evidence-based decision-making.
