Kellie B. Sapp

Kellie Sapp serves as a Contract Specialist responsible for managing the full lifecycle of federal acquisitions, from requirements development and market research to contract award and administration. She plays a critical role in ensuring compliance with federal procurement regulations while advancing mission-critical capabilities through efficient, transparent contracting processes. Her portfolio primarily consists of professional, scientific, and technical services, with a strong emphasis on training, analytical support, and specialized manufacturing. Kellie’s work supports operational readiness through the procurement of non-defense, mission-enabling goods and services, often involving complex technical specifications and performance-based outcomes. While no specific contractor relationships are currently identifiable, Kellie engages with a diverse pool of vendors, including small businesses and specialized service providers, fostering competitive bidding environments and ensuring broad market participation. Her contracting patterns reflect a preference for open competition, with the majority of awards issued under non-set-aside authorities. When set-asides are utilized, they are strategically aligned with socioeconomic goals, particularly favoring Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses (SDVOSBs), indicating a deliberate effort to support veteran entrepreneurship and veteran-led innovation. Kellie demonstrates a clear commitment to small business participation, with nearly 10% of her awards designated for SDVOSBs, reflecting alignment with federal socioeconomic objectives. Her procurement approach balances compliance with flexibility, ensuring that small businesses have equitable access to opportunities while maintaining rigorous standards for performance and accountability. Her primary NAICS focus centers on 541990 (All Other Professional, Scientific, and Technical Services), encompassing a broad range of specialized consulting, technical analysis, and operational support services. She also regularly procures training and educational services under NAICS 611430 and 611310, as well as niche manufacturing under 334519 and event logistics under 561920. This technical diversity underscores her expertise in managing complex, multi-domain acquisitions requiring nuanced understanding of both service delivery and specialized equipment standards.
