Leeann Washington

Leeann Washington serves as a Contract Specialist within the Support Services Section (SS40) of the Federal Emergency Management Agency, where she plays a pivotal role in securing administrative, logistical, and operational support services critical to FEMA’s emergency response readiness. She manages the full lifecycle of procurements—from market research and solicitation development to contract award and administration—ensuring compliance with federal acquisition regulations and alignment with agency mission priorities. Her portfolio primarily encompasses non-defense, mission-critical services that sustain FEMA’s infrastructure during high-tempo operations, including consulting, facility support, and insurance-related functions. While specific contractor names are not disclosed in available records, Leeann maintains collaborative relationships with a diverse pool of vendors providing specialized support services, including firms experienced in federal compliance, emergency operations logistics, and hospitality coordination for crisis response personnel. Her procurement approach emphasizes transparency, competitive bidding, and performance-based contract structures to ensure accountability and mission effectiveness. Leeann’s contracting activity is entirely focused on full and open competition, with no set-asides designated for 8(a), HUBZone, SDVOSB, or other socioeconomic categories. This reflects a strategic decision by her office to prioritize agility and capacity in securing high-demand support services during time-sensitive operational windows, rather than structuring procurements around socioeconomic preferences. Her primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 524298 (All Other Insurance Related Activities), which includes claims processing and risk mitigation support; NAICS 561210 (Facilities Support Services), covering maintenance, security, and facility management; and NAICS 721110 (Hotels and Motels), used to secure temporary lodging for emergency response teams. This specialized expertise positions her as a key operator in sustaining FEMA’s operational footprint through targeted, non-IT service acquisitions.
