Marissa Jackson

Marissa M. Jackson serves as a Contract Specialist responsible for managing the full lifecycle of federal acquisitions, from requirements definition and market research to contract award and administration. She plays a critical role in ensuring compliance with the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) while advancing agency mission objectives through timely, transparent, and competitively awarded contracts. Her portfolio primarily encompasses commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) equipment, office technology leasing, and specialized manufacturing services, with a focus on procuring products and services that support administrative and operational efficiency across federal operations. While specific contractor names are not available, Jackson maintains a broad network of vendors across multiple sectors, including equipment lessors, stationery manufacturers, and computer peripheral suppliers. Her contracting approach emphasizes competitive solicitation methods, including sealed bids and requests for proposals, fostering an open marketplace while ensuring regulatory adherence. She routinely engages with both large-capacity suppliers and small business concerns, balancing efficiency with socioeconomic goals. Jackson demonstrates a strong commitment to small business participation, with over 30% of her awards designated as Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5, and an additional 2% allocated to Women-Owned and Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses. Her procurement patterns reflect a deliberate effort to expand opportunities for socioeconomically disadvantaged firms, aligning with federal goals for equitable contracting while maintaining rigorous performance standards. Her primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 532420 (Office Machinery and Equipment Rental and Leasing), accounting for nearly half of her activity, followed by NAICS 511210 (Software Publishers) and 322230 (Stationery Product Manufacturing). This specialization indicates deep expertise in procuring integrated office technology solutions, digital content platforms, and printed materials, positioning her as a key player in supporting modern, paper-light administrative environments within federal operations.
