Her contracting approach emphasizes performance-based outcomes, leveraging competitive solicitation strategies to ensure technical excellence and supply chain resilience. She maintains a balanced procurement posture, prioritizing both large-capability vendors and small business partners to meet operational demands without compromising quality or timeliness.
