Joelle J. Faucher

Joelle J. Faucher serves as a key procurement professional within Washington Headquarters Services, supporting the Department of Defense’s mission to modernize institutional management systems and enhance enterprise-wide operational efficiency. She manages a diverse portfolio of acquisitions focused on administrative, technical, and consulting services that underpin DoD’s digital transformation and institutional modernization initiatives. Her work spans contract planning, solicitation, and award execution for mission-critical services, ensuring alignment with federal acquisition regulations and strategic DoD priorities. Faucher routinely handles complex, high-impact procurements that require coordination across multiple stakeholders to deliver integrated solutions for defense enterprise functions. Faucher maintains established relationships with a core group of contractors including Clarity Innovations LLC, Cynergy Professional Systems LLC, Signature Renovations LLC, AMD International Technologies LLC, and Guidehouse Inc. These partnerships reflect a balanced approach to sourcing both specialized technical expertise and broad-based management consulting services. Her contracting patterns indicate a preference for vendors with proven experience in defense-sector consulting, custom software development, and facility modernization, suggesting a reliance on firms capable of delivering scalable, compliant, and mission-aligned solutions under tight operational timelines. Her procurement strategy prioritizes broad market access, with 60% of awards issued under unrestricted competition and 40% designated as total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5. This reflects a deliberate commitment to fostering small business participation without compromising access to high-capacity vendors. While no specific socioeconomic set-asides like 8(a) or HUBZone dominate her portfolio, the consistent use of total small business set-asides demonstrates a structured effort to expand opportunities for qualified small businesses across the defense ecosystem. Faucher’s primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 511210 (Software Publishers), accounting for half of her activity, followed by custom computer programming (541511), administrative management consulting (541611), and professional education services (611310). Her acquisitions center on enterprise software solutions, systems integration, strategic planning, and institutional capacity-building services, underscoring deep expertise in digital transformation, process optimization, and defense administrative modernization.
