Ronda Longbrake

Ronda Longbrake serves as a Senior Contracting Officer responsible for managing complex acquisition programs across federal infrastructure and professional services. In this capacity, she ensures compliance with the Federal Acquisition Regulation while advancing agency mission objectives through strategic sourcing, competitive bidding, and risk-managed contract execution. Her portfolio primarily encompasses construction-related services and administrative support solutions, with a strong emphasis on full and open competition augmented by targeted set-asides. She plays a pivotal role in translating operational needs into legally sound, performance-based solicitations that promote accountability, transparency, and value for taxpayer dollars. While specific contractor names are not available, her contracting patterns reflect consistent engagement with a diverse pool of vendors, particularly small businesses and specialty trade contractors. She cultivates collaborative relationships with firms capable of delivering high-quality, on-time performance under fixed-price and cost-reimbursement structures, often leveraging indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity (IDIQ) mechanisms to streamline recurring requirements. Her approach emphasizes vendor prequalification, past performance evaluation, and rigorous source selection criteria to ensure contractor readiness and mission alignment. Ronda demonstrates a robust commitment to socioeconomic contracting, with 63% of her awards designated as total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5. Her procurement strategy prioritizes small business participation across multiple socioeconomic categories, reflecting a deliberate effort to expand opportunities for small, disadvantaged, and community-based firms. She consistently structures solicitations to maximize small business eligibility, aligning with federal goals to enhance economic inclusion and workforce development through federal spending. Her primary industry focus lies in water and sewer infrastructure construction (NAICS 237110), followed by office administrative services (561110) and specialty trade contracting (238990). She regularly procures civil construction, site preparation, and related engineering support services, alongside professional technical services including project management, logistics coordination, and regulatory compliance consulting. Her technical expertise spans public works infrastructure lifecycle management and administrative service delivery, positioning her as a trusted authority in mission-critical, non-defense federal acquisitions.
