Katherine King

Katherine King serves as a Contracting Officer within the Oss Procurement Division of the U.S. Marshals Service, where she is responsible for managing the full lifecycle of mission-critical acquisitions that support federal law enforcement operations. Her portfolio focuses on securing logistical, security, and administrative services essential to maintaining operational readiness, including facilities support, personnel services, and specialized equipment. She executes solicitations under FAR and DFARS frameworks, ensuring compliance with federal procurement standards while aligning acquisitions with the agency’s strategic priorities of secure detention, transport, and personnel readiness. King maintains a primary contracting relationship with RED SKY ADVENTURES LLC, a vendor she has consistently engaged across multiple acquisition cycles. Her working relationship with this contractor reflects a pattern of repeat performance in delivering specialized services, suggesting a high level of trust and proven capability in meeting the unique demands of law enforcement environments. While she engages with a limited number of key vendors, her approach emphasizes reliability, performance history, and contractual compliance over broad competition. King’s contracting activity shows no use of socioeconomic set-asides, with 100% of her awards issued under full and open competition. This reflects a deliberate procurement strategy prioritizing capability and mission alignment over socioeconomic preferences, consistent with the operational urgency and specialized nature of the U.S. Marshals Service’s requirements. Her primary NAICS focus spans three distinct domains: 622110 (General Medical and Surgical Hospitals), 339113 (Surgical Appliance and Supplies Manufacturing), and 512110 (Motion Picture and Video Production). These reflect a diverse acquisition portfolio that includes medical support systems for detention facilities, custom surgical and safety equipment, and multimedia production services for evidentiary and training purposes. Her expertise lies at the intersection of healthcare logistics, specialized manufacturing, and law enforcement communications, demonstrating a unique blend of technical and operational procurement acumen.
