Sarika M. McCoy

Sarika M. McCoy supports the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) in executing mission-critical procurement activities aligned with the agency’s scientific and operational priorities. Though her formal title is not listed, her procurement profile indicates a central role in managing acquisitions for technical services and infrastructure support essential to NOAA’s environmental monitoring, data collection, and coastal resilience initiatives. She handles a diverse portfolio of contracts spanning information technology, environmental management, and logistics services, ensuring alignment with federal acquisition regulations and agency strategic goals. McCoy maintains consistent working relationships with a select group of contractors, including WISCONSIN EDUCATIONAL COMMUNICATIONS BOARD, TRONCONI SEGARRA & ASSOCIATES LLP, JNB SERVICES LLC, PURE ENVIRO-MANAGEMENT, LLC, and THE REGENTS OF THE UNIVERSITY OF COLORADO. These partnerships reflect a blend of academic, environmental consulting, and IT service providers, suggesting a preference for firms with specialized expertise in oceanic data systems, environmental compliance, and technical support services. Her contracting patterns indicate collaborative, long-term vendor engagements grounded in technical capability rather than volume-driven procurement. Her acquisition strategy reflects a balanced approach to socioeconomic goals, with approximately one-third of contracts awarded under Total Small Business Set-Asides per FAR 19.5, demonstrating a deliberate commitment to small business participation. While the majority of awards are unrestricted, the consistent use of small business set-asides signals an intentional effort to foster competition and expand the pool of qualified vendors serving NOAA’s mission. McCoy’s procurement focus is concentrated in NAICS 541519 (Other Computer Related Services), 721110 (Hotels and Motels), and 423430 (Computer Equipment Wholesalers), indicating a unique blend of IT services, logistical support, and facility-related procurement. This mix suggests she manages not only data systems and software integration for environmental modeling but also ancillary services supporting field operations, research stations, and coastal infrastructure—reflecting a nuanced understanding of NOAA’s hybrid operational needs.
