Rascon serves as a key procurement professional within the W6QK Acc-apg Cont Ct Software Sector under the Department of the Army, where she supports the acquisition of mission-critical software systems, secure communications infrastructure, and enterprise IT platforms essential to Army modernization and battlefield readiness. Her work centers on managing complex contracts for network resilience, command and control systems, and data integration platforms that enable distributed operational effectiveness. Rascon handles a diverse portfolio of acquisitions spanning commercial off-the-shelf solutions, custom software development, and managed IT services, ensuring alignment with DoD cybersecurity standards and interoperability requirements across tactical and strategic environments. She maintains consistent procurement relationships with major defense and telecommunications contractors including British Telecommunications Public Limited Company, Liberty Communications, Inc., and Southwestern Industrial Contractors & Riggers, Inc., reflecting a preference for established vendors with proven capabilities in secure communications, infrastructure deployment, and IT systems integration. Her contracting patterns indicate a reliance on experienced prime contractors capable of delivering scalable, field-deployable solutions under tight operational timelines, often through competitive sealed bidding or negotiated procurements. Rascon’s set-aside preferences reflect a balanced approach to socioeconomic contracting, with 64.3% of awards issued without set-aside, while 28.6% are designated as total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5 and 7.1% allocated to 8(a) competed contracts. This demonstrates a strategic commitment to small business participation without compromising mission-critical delivery timelines or technical requirements.
