Kimberly L DeLong

Kimberly L. DeLong serves as a Contract Specialist responsible for managing the full lifecycle of federal acquisitions, from requirements validation through contract award and administration. She plays a critical role in ensuring compliance with the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) and advancing agency mission objectives through strategic sourcing and risk-mitigated contracting. Her portfolio primarily encompasses service-based acquisitions, including facilities support, public transit systems, and specialized equipment procurement, often involving complex solicitation development, source selection, and post-award contract management. While specific contractor names are not available, her contracting patterns reflect consistent engagement with a diverse pool of vendors, including small businesses and general contractors capable of delivering facilities operations, transit services, and technical equipment solutions. Her approach emphasizes competitive bidding, clear performance metrics, and structured contract modifications to ensure accountability and operational continuity across awarded contracts. DeLong demonstrates a strong commitment to socioeconomic contracting, with nearly 44% of her awards directed toward small business set-asides under FAR 19.5, including Total Small Business and 8(a) competed contracts. Her preference for non-set-aside procurements (56.3%) indicates a balanced approach that prioritizes competition while actively fostering opportunities for disadvantaged and small businesses, aligning with broader federal goals for equitable market access. Her primary NAICS focus areas include Facilities Support Services (561210), reflecting expertise in groundskeeping, maintenance, and facility management contracts; Bus and Other Motor Vehicle Transit Systems (485113), indicating involvement in public transportation infrastructure support; and niche categories such as Other Measuring and Controlling Device Manufacturing (334519) and Computer Equipment Wholesaling (423430), showcasing technical acumen in procuring specialized instrumentation and IT hardware. This blend of service and product procurement underscores her versatility in managing complex, multi-domain acquisition portfolios.
