Michele M. McCoy

Michele M. McCoy serves as a Contract Specialist within the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), where she plays a critical role in executing procurements that support the agency’s mission of environmental monitoring, oceanographic research, and climate resilience. She manages the full lifecycle of acquisitions—from requirements development and market research to contract award and administration—focusing on scientific, technical, and maritime infrastructure services. Her work directly enables NOAA’s deployment of advanced instrumentation, data systems, and operational platforms essential to weather forecasting and marine ecosystem protection. McCoy maintains consistent relationships with a diverse set of contractors, including WISCONSIN EDUCATIONAL COMMUNICATIONS BOARD, TRONCONI SEGARRA & ASSOCIATES LLP, JNB SERVICES LLC, PURE ENVIRO-MANAGEMENT, LLC, and THE REGENTS OF THE UNIVERSITY OF COLORADO. These partnerships span engineering, environmental consulting, telecommunications, and research services, reflecting her engagement with both established firms and academic institutions. Her contracting approach emphasizes performance-based outcomes and technical compliance, ensuring alignment with NOAA’s scientific and operational objectives. Her procurement portfolio demonstrates a strong commitment to small business participation, with 44.2% of awards structured as Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5. While no specific socioeconomic set-asides dominate, her consistent use of small business preferences underscores a deliberate strategy to expand market access for qualified vendors. This pattern supports broader federal goals for equitable economic opportunity within the environmental technology sector. McCoy’s primary NAICS focus includes Ship Building and Repairing (336611), reflecting NOAA’s investment in vessel maintenance and marine platform modernization. She also routinely procures professional scientific and technical services (541990), satellite telecommunications (517410), and analytical laboratory instrumentation (334516), demonstrating deep expertise in oceanographic and atmospheric data systems. Her work bridges engineering, environmental science, and telecommunications to deliver mission-critical capabilities across NOAA’s operational domains.
