Lisa T O'Neill

Lisa T. O’Neill serves as a Contracting Officer responsible for managing federal acquisitions in support of public health and professional services programs. She plays a critical role in ensuring compliance with the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) while executing procurements that align with agency mission objectives. Her portfolio primarily encompasses services related to public health administration, management consulting, and background investigation services, requiring a nuanced understanding of both operational needs and socioeconomic contracting requirements. She oversees the full acquisition lifecycle—from market research and solicitation development to contract award and administration—ensuring transparency, fairness, and regulatory adherence. While specific contractor names are not available, her procurement patterns indicate a balanced engagement with both large-capability firms and small businesses, particularly those qualified under general professional services categories. She routinely collaborates with vendors offering technical expertise in public health program management, investigative services, and strategic consulting, fostering relationships grounded in performance accountability and competitive fairness. Her approach emphasizes open competition while actively facilitating opportunities for qualified small businesses. O’Neill demonstrates a strong commitment to small business participation, with approximately one-third of her awards structured as total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5. Although no other socioeconomic set-asides (e.g., 8(a), HUBZone, SDVOSB) are currently dominant in her portfolio, her consistent use of small business set-asides reflects a deliberate strategy to expand market access and promote economic inclusion within the professional services sector. Her primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 923120 (Administration of Public Health Programs), reflecting deep expertise in supporting public health infrastructure and service delivery. She also regularly procures services under NAICS 541990, 561611, and 541618, indicating proficiency in managing complex, knowledge-based contracts involving data analysis, compliance oversight, and operational consulting. Her domain expertise centers on mission-critical services that require rigorous standards, regulatory alignment, and performance-based outcomes.
