Scott Hobbs

Scott Hobbs serves as a Principal Subcontracts Administrator, playing a critical role in overseeing the subcontracting components of federal acquisitions to ensure compliance with FAR regulations and prime contractor obligations. In this capacity, he manages the flow of subcontracting plans, monitors performance metrics, and ensures small business participation goals are met across complex procurement portfolios. His work directly supports the integrity of the federal contracting ecosystem by aligning subcontractor engagement with prime contract requirements, particularly in technical and construction-related domains. Hobbs typically handles high-complexity acquisitions involving professional services and construction, where subcontractor management is essential to delivery success. While specific contractor names are not available, Hobbs maintains consistent working relationships with prime contractors across engineering, architectural, and construction sectors. He engages with both large primes and small business subcontractors, ensuring that flow-down clauses, reporting obligations, and socioeconomic compliance are rigorously enforced. His approach emphasizes transparency, accountability, and proactive monitoring of subcontractor performance, fostering collaborative partnerships that uphold contract integrity and mission outcomes. Hobbs demonstrates a strong commitment to small business participation, with 25% of his acquisitions structured as total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5. Although the majority of his work is unrestricted, his consistent use of small business set-asides reflects a deliberate strategy to expand opportunities for small businesses without compromising acquisition flexibility. He does not rely heavily on specialized set-asides such as 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB, instead prioritizing broad-based small business inclusion through total small business contracting mechanisms. His procurement focus centers on NAICS 541330 (Engineering Services) and 541310 (Architectural Services), each accounting for 25% of his portfolio, alongside significant activity in 236220 (Commercial and Institutional Building Construction). He regularly procures technical consulting services under 541690 and temporary staffing solutions under 561320, reflecting expertise in integrated project delivery environments requiring multidisciplinary teams and specialized technical oversight.
