Meawonna Floyd

Meawonna Floyd supports the Farm Production and Conservation Business Center’s acquisition mission within the U.S. Department of Agriculture, overseeing the procurement of technical and environmental services critical to land conservation, soil health initiatives, and rural resource planning. She manages a portfolio of contracts focused on engineering, environmental consulting, and data-enabled agricultural decision support systems, ensuring that field-level conservation programs are equipped with the necessary technical infrastructure and expert services. Her work directly enables the implementation of easement restoration projects and precision land management tools across federal conservation programs. Floyd maintains consistent partnerships with key vendors including PROJECTELLA LLC, HOMESTEAD SERVICES, LLC, and JANIE B LLC, all of which provide specialized services in environmental compliance, land stewardship, and conservation technology deployment. Her contracting approach emphasizes long-term collaboration with vendors possessing deep domain expertise in agricultural ecology and rural infrastructure, fostering reliable delivery of mission-critical services through performance-based contract structures and clear deliverable frameworks. She maintains a 100% Small Business Set-Aside preference across all solicitations, fully aligning with FAR 19.5 guidelines to prioritize participation by small businesses. This reflects a deliberate and sustained commitment to socioeconomic inclusion, ensuring that contracting opportunities directly benefit small, locally rooted firms capable of delivering tailored conservation solutions. Her pattern of awarding exclusively to small business concerns underscores a strategic alignment with USDA’s broader goals of rural economic resilience and equitable access to federal procurement. Floyd’s procurement focus centers on NAICS 541620 (Environmental Consulting Services) and 561730 (Landscaping Services), with significant activity in 334220 (Wireless Communications Equipment) and 334511 (Navigation and Guidance Systems). These reflect a technical emphasis on deploying sensor networks, geospatial monitoring tools, and communication infrastructure to support data-driven conservation practices. Her expertise lies in acquiring integrated systems that combine environmental science with field-deployable technology to enhance agricultural sustainability and land use planning.
