Kimberly Trottier

Kimberly Trottier serves as a key procurement lead within the Great Plains Area Indian Health Service, overseeing acquisitions critical to sustaining and expanding healthcare delivery for American Indian and Alaska Native communities. She manages a high-volume portfolio of temporary staffing contracts under FAR Part 19, ensuring that remote and underserved facilities receive timely clinical, administrative, and operational support. Her work directly supports the agency’s mission to provide culturally competent, accessible care by filling critical workforce gaps through flexible, responsive contracting solutions. Trottier specializes in non-personal services acquisitions that enable continuity of care in resource-constrained environments, with a strong emphasis on rapid deployment and compliance with tribal health priorities. She maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of small business contractors, including DT-TRAK CONSULTING, INC., ANDERS GROUP LLC, WAREBROOK HEALTH, LLC, LACREEK DEVELOPMENT CORP, and METRO MEDICAL EQUIPMENT & SUPPLY, INC. These partnerships reflect a strategic focus on local and culturally aligned service providers capable of delivering temporary clinical, IT, and logistical support tailored to tribal health centers. Trottier’s contracting approach prioritizes responsiveness, reliability, and cultural competency, fostering long-term vendor collaboration grounded in trust and performance-based outcomes. Trottier’s procurement portfolio is exclusively structured under Total Small Business Set-Aside authority (FAR 19.5), reflecting a firm commitment to socioeconomic equity and tribal economic development. All acquisitions are reserved for small businesses, with no open competition, ensuring maximum participation by disadvantaged and community-based firms. This pattern underscores a deliberate strategy to channel federal resources into small, often locally owned enterprises that understand the unique operational and cultural context of Indian Health Service facilities. Her primary procurement focus is NAICS 561320 (Temporary Help Services), encompassing the acquisition of clinical support staff, medical assistants, administrative personnel, and health information technicians. She specializes in filling short- to medium-term staffing needs across primary care, behavioral health, and public health programs, ensuring that remote clinics maintain operational capacity without permanent hires. Her expertise lies in aligning workforce solutions with the dynamic, community-driven demands of tribal healthcare delivery.
