Meredith M Kozera

Meredith M. Kozera serves as a Contract Specialist within the GSA Federal Acquisition Service’s FAS AAS Fedsim team, where she plays a pivotal role in executing mission-critical procurements for specialized professional, technical, and logistics services that underpin national infrastructure and defense readiness. She manages the full lifecycle of acquisitions—from market research and solicitation development to contract award and administration—focusing primarily on IT modernization, systems integration, and mission support services. Her work directly enables federal agencies to maintain secure, scalable, and interoperable operational environments through strategic contracting aligned with GSA’s mission to deliver efficient, compliant, and innovative procurement solutions. Kozera collaborates with a diverse range of contractors specializing in advanced information technology and systems engineering services. While no single vendor dominates her portfolio, she consistently engages with firms possessing deep expertise in cybersecurity, cloud infrastructure, and mission-critical software development. Her contracting approach emphasizes performance-based outcomes, clear statement of work development, and rigorous vendor evaluation under FAR Part 15 procedures, fostering transparent and accountable vendor partnerships grounded in technical competence and compliance. Kozera’s procurement activity reflects a strong preference for full and open competition, with 100% of her acquisitions designated as “No Set-Aside.” This underscores a focus on technical merit and capability over socioeconomic classifications, though she remains fully compliant with all statutory requirements for small business consideration. Her approach prioritizes mission effectiveness and value-driven outcomes, ensuring that competition remains robust and unconstrained by set-asides unless explicitly mandated by policy. Her primary procurement focus is centered on NAICS 541519 (Other Computer Related Services), encompassing a broad spectrum of IT consulting, systems analysis, data management, and technical support services. She specializes in acquiring solutions that support federal IT modernization initiatives, including legacy system migration, network resilience, and secure cloud migration—domains requiring deep technical acumen and adherence to NIST and FISMA standards.
