Michael Carriveau

Michael Carriveau serves as a Contracting Officer responsible for managing the full lifecycle of procurement actions within his assigned domain, ensuring compliance with federal acquisition regulations and agency mission objectives. He specializes in the planning, solicitation, award, and administration of contracts for warehousing and storage services, playing a pivotal role in supporting logistics and supply chain operations. His acquisitions are primarily non-personal service contracts, often executed through competitive sealed bidding or negotiated procedures under FAR Part 15, with a focus on performance-based outcomes and clear statement of work requirements. Carriveau maintains a broad network of vendors capable of delivering general warehousing and storage solutions, including third-party logistics providers, facility management firms, and transportation and distribution contractors. His contracting approach emphasizes competitive sourcing and vendor performance evaluation, fostering long-term partnerships with contractors who demonstrate operational reliability, compliance with safety and security standards, and scalability to meet fluctuating demand. While no single contractor dominates his portfolio, he consistently engages firms with proven experience in federal storage operations and inventory management systems. His procurement patterns reflect a strong preference for open competition, with 100% of his awards issued without set-aside designations. This indicates a focus on maximizing value and efficiency through broad market participation rather than socioeconomic targeting, aligning with agency priorities that prioritize operational readiness over socioeconomic quotas. While he does not routinely utilize 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB set-asides, his actions remain fully compliant with all applicable small business policies. Carriveau’s primary expertise lies in NAICS 493110—General Warehousing and Storage—where he procures services such as inbound/outbound logistics, inventory control, cold chain storage, and warehouse automation systems. He has developed deep technical knowledge in facility standards, cargo handling protocols, and compliance with federal storage regulations, ensuring that contracted services meet stringent operational and security requirements.
