Ms. An, Hye Son

Hye Son An serves as a Contract Specialist responsible for managing the full lifecycle of federal acquisitions, from requirements development through contract award and administration. She ensures compliance with the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) and supports the agency’s mission by executing timely, transparent, and legally sound procurements. Her portfolio primarily involves service-based contracts in construction support, facility maintenance, and operational services, with a focus on delivering mission-critical capabilities while maintaining fiscal accountability and regulatory adherence. She works closely with program offices to translate technical needs into solicitation requirements and evaluates proposals based on technical merit and past performance. While no specific contractor relationships are identifiable due to limited data, An’s procurement patterns suggest a broad vendor base with no dominant single-source relationships. She engages with a diverse range of contractors, including small businesses and general service providers, fostering competitive environments that promote fair access and value-driven outcomes. Her approach emphasizes open competition and procedural integrity, aligning with best practices in public procurement. An’s contracting activity reflects a strong preference for open competition, with 91.7% of awards issued without set-asides. However, she consistently allocates 4.2% of opportunities to Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5 and another 4.2% to Local Area Set-Asides under FAR 26.2, demonstrating a measured commitment to small business participation and regional economic development without compromising competition. Her primary NAICS focus areas include 238290 (Other Building Equipment Contractors), 236220 (Commercial and Institutional Building Construction), and 238910 (Site Preparation Contractors), indicating deep expertise in facility infrastructure and construction support services. She also procures commercial and industrial machinery repair (811310) and food service contracting (722310), reflecting a broad technical understanding of facility operations and maintenance. Her domain expertise centers on physical infrastructure lifecycle management and ancillary support services critical to operational readiness.
