Lauren Olivia White

Lauren Olivia White serves as a procurement professional responsible for managing a diverse portfolio of information technology and professional services acquisitions. She plays a critical role in executing the agency’s mission by ensuring timely, compliant, and efficient contract award processes for mission-critical support services. Her work primarily involves soliciting and awarding contracts under the Federal Acquisition Regulation for non-personal services, with a strong emphasis on IT modernization, data management, and digital infrastructure support. She routinely handles competitive solicitations across multiple contract vehicles, ensuring alignment with federal procurement best practices and regulatory requirements. Her contractor relationships are broad and dynamic, encompassing both large prime contractors and small business vendors offering specialized technical services. While no single contractor dominates her portfolio, she consistently engages firms capable of delivering custom software development, data analytics, and digital content services. Her procurement approach favors open competition, with a preference for performance-based contracting and outcome-driven deliverables, fostering partnerships grounded in transparency, accountability, and technical excellence. Lauren demonstrates a strong commitment to socioeconomic contracting, with the majority of her awards issued under unrestricted competition (84.8%). However, she actively leverages Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5, particularly for total small business set-asides (12.1%), and has a documented preference for Women-Owned Small Businesses (3.0%). Her contracting patterns reflect a balanced strategy—prioritizing broad market access while intentionally creating pathways for underrepresented small businesses to compete for federal opportunities. Her primary procurement focus centers on NAICS codes 519130 (Other Information Services) and 511210 (Software Publishers), with additional activity in custom computer programming (541511) and other computer-related services (541519). She regularly acquires digital content solutions, cloud-enabled applications, and data integration services, demonstrating deep expertise in the information technology and software services domains. Her technical acumen ensures that acquisitions align with evolving digital government priorities and cybersecurity standards.
