Marsha Daniels

Marsha Daniels serves as a Contracting Officer responsible for managing the full lifecycle of federal acquisitions, from requirements definition through contract award and administration. She plays a critical role in ensuring compliance with the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) while advancing mission-critical technology initiatives. Her portfolio primarily encompasses information technology services, with a focus on software development, data infrastructure, and computing services. Daniels works closely with program managers and technical stakeholders to align procurement strategy with agency objectives, ensuring transparent, competitive, and compliant sourcing practices. While specific contractor names are not available, her contracting patterns reflect a balanced engagement with both large-capability vendors and small business concerns. She consistently fosters open competition while actively promoting equitable access for qualified small businesses, particularly those certified under socioeconomic programs. Her working relationships emphasize collaboration, risk mitigation, and performance accountability, with a preference for performance-based contracting and outcome-driven deliverables. Daniels 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. She does not rely heavily on specialized set-asides such as 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB, but instead prioritizes broad-based small business eligibility, enabling a diverse pool of qualified vendors to compete. This approach supports sustainable market development and encourages innovation from emerging technology providers. Her procurement focus is concentrated in three key NAICS categories: 511210 (Software Publishers), 541519 (Other Computer Related Services), and 518210 (Data Processing and Hosting Services). These reflect a deep specialization in software solutions, custom IT services, and cloud-enabled computing infrastructure. She routinely procures services related to application development, cybersecurity support, and managed IT systems, demonstrating expertise in modern digital transformation initiatives and mission-critical technology modernization.
