Shavonda Jamison

Shavonda Jamison serves as a Contract Specialist within the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), supporting the agency’s mission to advance scientific understanding of oceanic, atmospheric, and coastal systems through strategic procurement of technical and environmental services. She manages the full lifecycle of acquisitions, from requirements development and market research to contract award and administration, with a focus on professional, scientific, and technical services critical to NOAA’s environmental monitoring, data collection, and research operations. Her portfolio includes complex service-based contracts requiring specialized expertise in environmental analysis, data systems, and operational support. Jamison maintains consistent working relationships with a diverse set of contractors, including the 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 balanced mix of academic institutions, environmental consulting firms, and small business service providers, indicating a preference for collaborative, mission-aligned vendors capable of delivering specialized technical and operational support across NOAA’s scientific domains. Her contracting patterns demonstrate a strong commitment to small business participation, with over one-third of her awards structured as Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5 and nearly 12% designated for Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses. While the majority of her acquisitions are open to all competitors, her deliberate use of socioeconomic set-asides underscores a proactive effort to expand opportunities for disadvantaged and veteran-owned firms within NOAA’s technical procurement ecosystem. Her primary NAICS focus areas include 811219 (Other Commercial and Industrial Machinery and Equipment Repair and Maintenance), 541990 (All Other Professional, Scientific, and Technical Services), and 541620 (Environmental Consulting Services), reflecting her specialization in procuring environmental assessments, data management solutions, and facility support services essential to NOAA’s operational and research infrastructure. She consistently sources expertise in oceanographic instrumentation, climate modeling support, and environmental compliance services, aligning acquisitions with NOAA’s scientific priorities.
