Shannon Baggerman

Shannon Baggerman serves as Program Coordinator for the Department of Washington County (DAVS Code: 38df3264), where she plays a central role in designing, managing, and overseeing procurement initiatives aligned with the agency’s mission to support older adults and unpaid family caregivers. In this primary capacity, she leads the acquisition of community-based social services, ensuring contracts align with evidence-based practices in home-delivered nutrition, in-home care coordination, and caregiver respite programs. Her work bridges programmatic needs with federal procurement compliance, making her a key liaison between service providers and internal stakeholders to deliver high-impact, person-centered interventions. Shannon collaborates with a diverse network of nonprofit service providers, local community organizations, and social service contractors who specialize in aging and family support systems. While no single vendor dominates her portfolio, she consistently engages with organizations that demonstrate proven capacity in delivering culturally competent, trauma-informed care. Her procurement approach emphasizes long-term partnership over transactional vendor relationships, prioritizing continuity of service and organizational stability to sustain outcomes for vulnerable populations. Shannon’s contracting activity is entirely non-set-aside, with 100% of procurements open to all eligible vendors without socioeconomic preferences such as 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB designations. This reflects the agency’s operational focus on service quality and geographic accessibility over socioeconomic targeting, though she remains open to qualified small businesses that meet programmatic requirements. Her procurement patterns indicate a preference for experienced, mission-aligned providers rather than those seeking set-aside advantages. Her primary procurement focus is on NAICS 624190—Other Individual and Family Services—encompassing home-based care coordination, meal delivery, caregiver training, and health promotion programs. She specializes in acquiring human services that require deep community integration, case management expertise, and compliance with state and federal aging service standards. Her domain expertise lies in the intersection of social work, public health, and government contracting, ensuring services are both compliant and compassionate.
