Marisol Pacheco

Marisol Pacheco serves as a Procurement Agent responsible for managing the acquisition of health insurance services and related support functions within her organization. She plays a critical role in ensuring compliance with federal procurement regulations while advancing the agency’s mission to secure high-quality, cost-effective health coverage solutions. Her portfolio primarily consists of full and open competitions for direct health and medical insurance carrier services, including plan administration, claims processing, provider network management, and member services. Pacheco navigates complex regulatory frameworks under the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) and applies sound contract administration practices to ensure timely, transparent, and legally compliant procurements. Pacheco maintains professional relationships with a broad range of health insurance carriers and third-party administrators that specialize in government-facing health plans. While no single contractor dominates her award history, she consistently engages with established insurers possessing demonstrated experience in federal, state, and Medicare Advantage programs. Her procurement approach emphasizes competitive bidding, clear performance metrics, and robust vendor evaluation criteria to ensure service quality and accountability. She collaborates closely with program stakeholders to align contractual deliverables with operational needs and regulatory requirements. Pacheco’s contracting activity is entirely focused on full and open competitions, with no set-asides designated for 8(a), HUBZone, SDVOSB, or other socioeconomic categories. This reflects a strategic decision to prioritize market-wide competition for complex insurance services, where scale, network breadth, and regulatory expertise are critical. While small business participation is not formally incentivized in her portfolio, she ensures all solicitations are structured to allow equitable access for firms of all sizes that meet technical and financial capability requirements. Her primary procurement focus is on NAICS 524114—Direct Health and Medical Insurance Carriers—where she specializes in acquiring comprehensive health plan services, including risk-based capitation arrangements, utilization management systems, and member engagement platforms. Pacheco brings deep domain expertise in health insurance product design, provider reimbursement models, and compliance with HIPAA and ACA standards, making her a key resource for procurement initiatives involving federally regulated health coverage programs.
