Naomi Haney-Ceresa

Naomi Haney-Ceresa serves as a Contracting Officer responsible for managing the full lifecycle of federal acquisitions, from market research and solicitation development to contract award and administration. She plays a critical role in advancing her agency’s mission by ensuring compliance with federal procurement regulations while delivering high-value management consulting services. Her portfolio is exclusively focused on professional services contracts under NAICS 541618, encompassing strategic planning, organizational effectiveness, policy analysis, and operational advisory services. She ensures acquisitions are competitively sourced, transparent, and aligned with best practices in performance-based contracting and statement of work design. Naomi maintains a vendor-neutral procurement approach, engaging a broad spectrum of qualified contractors without reliance on any single entity. Her contracting patterns reflect a preference for open competition among firms with demonstrated expertise in management consulting, including large professional services firms, mid-tier consultancies, and niche boutique providers. She emphasizes clear performance metrics, deliverable-based payment structures, and rigorous contract oversight to ensure accountability and outcomes-driven results. Notably, Naomi does not utilize any socioeconomic set-asides; all of her acquisitions are conducted as full and open competitions without restriction. This reflects a deliberate strategy to maximize competition and value through broad market access, rather than targeted socioeconomic preferences. While she does not prioritize 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB set-asides, her process remains fully compliant with all applicable small business participation goals and encourages voluntary small business subcontracting where appropriate. Her primary technical domain is management consulting services, with a consistent focus on NAICS 541618. She procures expertise in organizational transformation, process improvement, change management, and government program evaluation. Her contracts typically require advanced analytical capabilities, subject matter expertise in public sector operations, and proven experience delivering advisory services to federal entities under stringent compliance frameworks.
