Laura A. Gribble

Laura H. Gribble serves as a Contract Specialist within the General Services Administration’s Federal Acquisition Service, Region 9, where she plays a pivotal role in executing mission-critical procurements that support federal operational efficiency and digital transformation. She manages the full lifecycle of acquisitions for professional, scientific, and technical services, with a strong emphasis on information technology, defense-related systems, and facility maintenance contracts. Her work directly enables federal agencies to secure specialized capabilities essential to national infrastructure resilience and workforce productivity, aligning closely with GSA’s mandate to deliver streamlined, compliant, and high-value procurement solutions across the public sector. While specific contractor names are not available, Gribble maintains consistent working relationships with a diverse range of vendors, including large prime contractors and specialized technical firms delivering complex IT and defense-related solutions. Her procurement approach emphasizes performance-based contracting, clear statement of work development, and rigorous compliance with FAR and agency-specific acquisition policies. She fosters collaborative vendor engagement to ensure technical alignment, timely delivery, and accountability across contract performance metrics. Gribble’s contracting activity reflects a clear preference for open competition, with 100% of her acquisitions conducted without set-aside designations. This indicates a strategic focus on maximizing competition and value through unrestricted solicitations, rather than socioeconomic set-asides such as 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB programs. Her approach prioritizes technical merit and market readiness over socioeconomic classifications, consistent with the high-complexity nature of the services she procures. Her primary NAICS focus includes 336992 for military armored vehicle component manufacturing, 541511 for custom computer programming services, and 519190 for other information services, with additional activity in 511210 for software publishing. These reflect deep expertise in defense systems integration, bespoke software development, and data-driven information solutions, positioning her as a key technical procurement specialist within the Federal Acquisition Service.
