A. Kim Kittrell

Kim P. Kittrell serves as a Contracting Officer responsible for managing the full lifecycle of acquisition programs centered on facilities support services. In this role, she ensures compliance with federal procurement regulations while delivering mission-critical services that sustain government operations. Her portfolio primarily involves soliciting, evaluating, and awarding contracts under the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR), with a focus on performance-based acquisitions and indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity (IDIQ) vehicles. She works closely with program managers and technical evaluators to define requirements, conduct market research, and negotiate terms that balance operational needs with fiscal responsibility. Kittrell maintains a broad and competitive contractor base, engaging with both large prime contractors and small businesses capable of delivering integrated facilities support solutions. While no single vendor dominates her award stream, she consistently fosters a transparent and open competition environment, encouraging responsive proposals through clear solicitation language and timely feedback. Her approach emphasizes accountability, performance metrics, and post-award oversight to ensure contractor compliance and service quality. Her procurement pattern reflects a strict preference for unrestricted competitions, with 100% of her awards issued under the “No Set-Aside” category. This indicates a deliberate focus on maximizing competition and selecting the most qualified offerors regardless of socioeconomic status, rather than reserving awards for specific categories such as 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB. Her approach prioritizes value and capability over socioeconomic targeting. Kittrell’s expertise is narrowly concentrated in NAICS 561210—Facilities Support Services—encompassing cleaning, maintenance, groundskeeping, waste management, and facility operations support. She routinely procures comprehensive service packages that integrate multiple functions under single contracts, often requiring performance standards aligned with government facility sustainability and safety benchmarks. Her technical domain expertise lies in operational readiness and service delivery frameworks critical to maintaining federal infrastructure.
