Maria L. Paserman

Maria L. Paserman serves as a Contract Specialist within the GSA/FSS Office of Supply Center – Office Equipment, where she plays a pivotal role in executing procurement strategies that support federal administrative operations across the government. Responsible for managing the full lifecycle of solicitations, contract awards, and modifications, she specializes in acquiring mission-critical office equipment, stationery, printed materials, and related professional development services. Her work directly enables the efficiency and continuity of federal workforce operations by ensuring timely access to standardized, high-quality supplies and support services under the Federal Supply Schedule program. While specific contractor relationships are not currently identifiable in available data, Paserman engages with a broad base of vendors certified under GSA’s Multiple Award Schedules, including manufacturers, distributors, and service providers specializing in office systems and administrative solutions. Her contracting approach emphasizes compliance with FAR provisions, competitive bidding practices, and performance-based acquisition standards to ensure value, reliability, and scalability across federal agencies. Paserman’s procurement patterns reflect a strong preference for open competition, with 100% of her awards issued under non-set-aside authorities. This indicates a focus on maximizing market access and leveraging the full spectrum of qualified suppliers rather than targeting specific socioeconomic categories such as 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB programs. Her approach aligns with GSA’s broader mandate to deliver cost-effective, standardized solutions at scale. Her primary technical domain centers on NAICS categories related to office supplies, printed materials, and administrative support services, including the procurement of ergonomic furniture, document management systems, and training programs for federal personnel. She demonstrates deep expertise in evaluating technical specifications, managing contract deliverables, and ensuring alignment with federal procurement standards for office equipment and related services.
