Molly Jackson

Molly Jackson serves as a Contract Specialist within the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), supporting the agency’s mission to advance environmental science through strategic acquisitions of technical and analytical services. She manages the full lifecycle of procurement actions—from market research and solicitation development to contract award and administration—focusing on scientific, engineering, and technical support contracts critical to oceanic and atmospheric research, data systems, and coastal resilience initiatives. Her work ensures compliance with federal acquisition regulations while aligning procurement outcomes with NOAA’s scientific priorities and operational needs. Jackson maintains established relationships with a diverse cohort 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 reflect a balanced mix of academic institutions, specialized consulting firms, and technical service providers engaged in environmental monitoring, data analysis, and instrumentation support. Her contracting approach emphasizes performance-based outcomes, clear statement of work development, and long-term vendor collaboration to ensure technical fidelity and mission continuity. Her procurement patterns demonstrate a strong commitment to socioeconomic diversity, with nearly half of her awards issued under open competition and the remainder strategically set aside for small businesses. She consistently prioritizes Total Small Business Set-Asides, 8(a) Competed contracts, and Women-Owned Small Business opportunities, reflecting a deliberate effort to expand market access for underrepresented firms while maintaining competitive rigor and mission readiness. Jackson’s primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 541690 (Other Scientific and Technical Consulting Services) and 541330 (Engineering Services), with significant activity in 334419 and 334519 for specialized electronic components and environmental measurement devices. Her portfolio centers on supporting NOAA’s observational networks, remote sensing systems, and predictive modeling infrastructure, requiring deep technical understanding of environmental instrumentation, data acquisition systems, and applied scientific consulting services.
