Sara Strange

Sara Strange serves as a procurement professional responsible for managing complex acquisitions across commercial construction and technology services. She plays a critical role in advancing her agency’s mission by ensuring timely, compliant, and cost-effective contract execution for mission-critical infrastructure and support services. Her portfolio primarily includes competitive sealed bidding and negotiated procurements under FAR Part 15, with a strong emphasis on performance-based contracting and lifecycle cost analysis. She routinely handles acquisitions requiring detailed statement of work development, source selection evaluation, and post-award contract administration to ensure deliverables align with operational requirements. While no specific contractor relationships are identifiable in current data, Sara’s procurement patterns indicate consistent engagement with a diverse pool of vendors, including both large primes and small business subcontractors. Her approach favors open competition with robust past performance evaluations and technical capability assessments, fostering transparent and accountable vendor partnerships. She actively encourages teaming arrangements and prime-subcontractor collaborations to enhance innovation and capacity in the marketplace. Sara demonstrates a clear preference for small business participation, with 40% of her awards structured as total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5. She does not routinely utilize specialized socioeconomic set-asides such as 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB, instead prioritizing broad-based small business eligibility to maximize competition. This pattern reflects a strategic focus on increasing small business participation through simplified, accessible pathways rather than targeted socioeconomically designated programs. Her primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 236220 (Commercial and Institutional Building Construction) and 541519 (Other Computer Related Services), each accounting for 40% of her activity, with an additional 20% in 611430 (Professional and Management Development Training). She procures facilities construction, IT modernization services, cybersecurity support, and workforce development training programs, demonstrating expertise in both physical infrastructure and digital transformation domains. Her technical acumen spans building systems integration, cloud-based service delivery, and adult learning methodology design.
