Haben Woldemichael

Haben Woldemichael serves as a Contract Specialist within the Contract Administration Services Division (70RCAS) of the Department of Homeland Security, where they play a pivotal role in executing the agency’s mission to secure critical professional, scientific, and technical services that underpin national security operations. Responsible for the full lifecycle of procurement actions, Haben manages complex contracts for administrative management and general management consulting services, ensuring alignment with federal acquisition regulations and DHS strategic objectives. Their work directly supports operational readiness by facilitating the acquisition of high-integrity systems engineering, cybersecurity support, and R&D services essential to maintaining the integrity of federal infrastructure. Haben collaborates with a broad spectrum of contractors specializing in strategic advisory, organizational efficiency, and federal program management. While no single vendor dominates their portfolio, they consistently engage with firms possessing deep expertise in federal governance, process optimization, and performance-based service delivery. Their contracting approach emphasizes compliance, transparency, and performance accountability, fostering long-term partnerships with vendors capable of delivering scalable, mission-critical consulting solutions. Haben’s procurement pattern reflects a strong preference for open competition, with 100% of awards issued under non-set-aside conditions. This indicates a focus on selecting the most qualified providers based on technical merit and past performance rather than socioeconomic designations, though small business participation is not excluded—only not prioritized through targeted set-asides such as 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB programs. The primary NAICS code under Haben’s purview is 541611, reflecting an exclusive focus on administrative management and general management consulting services. Their acquisitions center on strategic planning, organizational design, process reengineering, and federal program evaluation—services that enhance the efficiency and effectiveness of DHS’s operational frameworks. Haben’s expertise lies in procuring high-level advisory services that enable institutional resilience and mission agility across complex federal environments.
