Jennifer Goss serves as a Contract Specialist within the Federal Protective Service East CCG Division 1 Acquisition Division, part of the Department of Homeland Security’s Office of Procurement Operations. She plays a pivotal role in executing mission-critical procurements for physical security services and integrated surveillance systems that safeguard federal facilities. Her responsibilities include developing solicitation documents, conducting market research, evaluating proposals, and managing contract awards in full compliance with FAR regulations. Goss specializes in complex acquisitions for security personnel, access control systems, video surveillance, and perimeter protection technologies, ensuring that federal infrastructure remains secure through timely and compliant contracting practices. Goss maintains strong, ongoing relationships with key contractors including GXC MAX INC, FLATTER, INC, and ENPROVERA CORP, all of which provide specialized security systems integration and guard services. Her working patterns reflect a preference for established vendors with proven performance histories in federal security environments, while actively fostering collaborative contract administration to ensure operational readiness and service quality. She consistently engages these partners through task order solicitations and indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity (IDIQ) mechanisms to meet dynamic security requirements across federal sites. Goss demonstrates an unwavering commitment to small business participation, with 100% of her acquisitions structured as Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5. This reflects a deliberate strategy to maximize economic opportunity for small businesses within the security services sector, ensuring that socioeconomic goals align with mission needs. Her contracting patterns consistently prioritize small business eligibility and certification, reinforcing the agency’s mandate to promote equitable access to federal contracting opportunities. Her primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 561621 (Security Systems Services) and 561612 (Security Guards and Patrol Services), reflecting deep expertise in both technological and human security solutions. She routinely procures managed security services, intrusion detection systems, biometric access controls, and armed/unarmed patrol operations, demonstrating specialized knowledge in the integration of physical security infrastructure with modern surveillance technologies.
