In this role, she ensures alignment between agency objectives and contracting execution, focusing on the efficient acquisition of temporary staffing solutions to support dynamic workforce needs.

She engages with a broad spectrum of vendors specializing in administrative, clerical, and support staffing, fostering partnerships with firms that demonstrate reliability, scalability, and adherence to labor and safety regulations. Her working pattern emphasizes performance-based contracting, with a focus on outcome-driven service level agreements and vendor accountability metrics rather than long-term sole-source arrangements. Julie’s procurement approach reflects a consistent preference for open competition, with 100% of her acquisitions conducted under non-set-aside procedures. While she does not prioritize socioeconomic set-asides such as 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB programs, her process remains transparent and competitive, ensuring equitable access for all qualified vendors.

Her primary industry focus is NAICS 561320—Temporary Help Services—where she specializes in procuring flexible, on-demand workforce solutions for state operations.

Her expertise lies in understanding the nuances of contingent labor markets and aligning staffing needs with public sector operational rhythms, ensuring seamless integration of temporary personnel into state workflows without disrupting continuity or compliance.
