Lisa Coleman

Lisa Coleman serves as a procurement professional responsible for managing complex service acquisitions across professional, scientific, and technical domains. She plays a critical role in advancing the agency’s mission by executing full lifecycle contracting actions—from market research and solicitation development to award and performance oversight—primarily for non-clinical support services. Her portfolio centers on high-demand professional services requiring specialized expertise, with a strong emphasis on research, analytical, and management consulting deliverables. Coleman ensures compliance with federal acquisition regulations while promoting efficiency and innovation in service delivery. Her contractor relationships are broad-based, with no single vendor dominating her award portfolio, indicating a deliberate strategy to maintain competitive diversity. She engages a wide spectrum of firms, from large professional services contractors to niche small businesses capable of delivering specialized technical solutions. Her contracting patterns reflect a preference for open competition, fostering a dynamic vendor ecosystem that responds to evolving project requirements without reliance on sole-source or limited-source mechanisms. Set-aside preferences are overwhelmingly skewed toward unrestricted competition, with 96.3% of awards issued under the “No Set-Aside” category, reflecting a focus on technical merit and value over socioeconomic targeting. However, she consistently allocates 3.7% of awards to Women-Owned Small Businesses, demonstrating a measured but intentional commitment to socioeconomic inclusion without compromising competitive integrity or mission needs. Lisa’s primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 541990 (All Other Professional, Scientific, and Technical Services), which accounts for over 70% of her activity, encompassing advisory, analytical, and technical support services. She also regularly procures research and development services under NAICS 541712 and 541715, particularly in physical and engineering sciences, alongside limited health care support services under NAICS 621999. Her domain expertise centers on non-biotech scientific research, operational consulting, and mission-critical technical services requiring rigorous methodology and subject-matter proficiency.
