Rachel Redfearn

Rachel Redfearn 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 ensuring compliance with the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) while advancing mission-critical procurement objectives. Her portfolio is exclusively focused on prefabricated metal building and component manufacturing, overseeing the acquisition of structural systems, modular components, and related engineering services essential to infrastructure and facility construction projects. Her expertise lies in navigating complex technical specifications and ensuring procurement actions align with federal standards for quality, safety, and performance. While no specific contractor relationships are currently identifiable in the data, Redfearn routinely engages with a diverse pool of manufacturers and fabricators capable of delivering compliant, standardized metal building systems. Her contracting patterns suggest consistent collaboration with both large-scale industrial suppliers and specialized small businesses, fostering competitive bidding environments that prioritize technical capability, delivery timelines, and adherence to industry codes such as AISC and ASTM standards. Redfearn demonstrates a balanced commitment to socioeconomic contracting, with an equal split between open competitions and Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5. This pattern reflects a deliberate strategy to maximize small business participation without compromising competition or mission requirements. She consistently leverages the Small Business Administration’s set-aside authorities to promote equitable access to federal contracting opportunities, particularly for firms certified as small businesses under the size standards for NAICS 332311. Her primary industry focus is NAICS 332311, which encompasses the design, fabrication, and delivery of prefabricated metal buildings and structural components. She specializes in procuring turnkey systems used in federal facilities, storage structures, and utility buildings, requiring deep familiarity with engineering drawings, material certifications, and installation specifications. Redfearn’s technical domain expertise ensures acquisitions meet federal building codes and sustainability benchmarks while supporting efficient, scalable infrastructure deployment.
