Joy Young

Joy D. Young serves as a Contract Specialist responsible for managing the full lifecycle of federal acquisitions, from requirements definition and solicitation development to contract award and administration. She plays a critical role in ensuring compliance with the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) and advancing mission-critical procurement objectives through transparent, competitive processes. Her portfolio primarily encompasses construction, electrical systems, and security services, with a strong emphasis on structured, well-documented contracting actions that support infrastructure modernization and operational readiness. She routinely handles both sealed bidding and negotiated procurements under simplified acquisition procedures and full and open competition frameworks. While specific contractor names are not available, Joy consistently engages with a diverse pool of vendors, including small businesses, specialty trade contractors, and service providers across the built environment and security sectors. Her contracting patterns reflect a preference for collaborative, performance-based outcomes and a focus on vendors with proven technical competency in their respective NAICS categories. She fosters long-term vendor relationships grounded in regulatory compliance, timely communication, and fair evaluation practices, ensuring accountability and value for taxpayer investments. Joy demonstrates a robust commitment to socioeconomic contracting, with nearly half of her awards designated as total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5. She also actively utilizes service-disabled veteran-owned small business (SDVOSB) set-asides, reflecting a deliberate strategy to promote veteran entrepreneurship. Her set-aside profile indicates a balanced approach—prioritizing small business participation while maintaining flexibility through no-set-aside actions when market conditions or mission needs require broader competition. Her primary procurement focus lies in commercial and institutional building construction (NAICS 236220) and electrical contracting (NAICS 238210), with additional activity in security systems services and related trades. She specializes in procuring complex, integrated facility services requiring coordination among multiple subcontractors and adherence to building codes and safety standards. Her technical expertise spans construction management, systems integration, and facility infrastructure, positioning her as a key resource for mission-supporting capital projects.
