Maruquel A. Reyes

Maruquel A. Reyes serves as a Procurement Agent responsible for managing the acquisition lifecycle for a diverse range of non-defense services, ensuring compliance with federal procurement regulations and promoting efficient use of public resources. In this role, Reyes executes competitive solicitation processes, evaluates proposals, and administers contracts to meet organizational operational needs. Their portfolio primarily focuses on hospitality, marketing, and facilities support services, reflecting a strategic alignment with mission-critical non-core functions. Reyes works closely with program stakeholders to define requirements, develop acquisition strategies, and ensure contract performance aligns with agency objectives, contributing to the broader goal of transparent, accountable, and effective public spending. Reyes maintains professional relationships with a broad spectrum of vendors, including marketing research firms, media buying agencies, hotel and motel operators, and facilities support service providers. While no single contractor dominates their award portfolio, Reyes consistently engages with both large-capacity service providers and small business competitors, fostering a competitive marketplace through open and fair solicitation practices. Their contracting approach emphasizes value-based selection criteria, performance metrics, and contract compliance, ensuring high-quality service delivery without reliance on exclusive vendor partnerships. Reyes exhibits a strong preference for open competition, with 100% of their acquisitions conducted without set-aside designations such as 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB. This reflects a procurement strategy prioritizing broad market access and price competitiveness over socioeconomic targeting, though small businesses remain eligible and frequently participate in bidding processes. Their approach supports equal opportunity for all qualified vendors while maintaining rigorous evaluation standards. The primary NAICS categories under Reyes’ purview include 721110 for lodging services, 541910 for marketing research, 561210 for facilities support, 541830 for media buying, and 517312 for wired telecommunications carriers. These reflect a specialization in procuring hospitality accommodations, consumer insights, operational support services, advertising placement, and communications infrastructure. Reyes brings technical expertise in evaluating service-level agreements, performance-based contracting, and vendor capacity assessments within these service domains.
