Sonja M. Sharp

Sonja M. Sharp serves as a Contract Specialist responsible for managing the full lifecycle of federal acquisitions, from requirements definition through contract award and administration. She plays a critical role in ensuring compliance with the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) while advancing mission-critical procurement objectives. Her portfolio primarily encompasses service-based contracts in the technology and facilities support sectors, with a strong emphasis on custom software development and integrated operational services. Sharp works closely with program managers and technical evaluators to align contracting strategies with agency goals, ensuring transparency, competition, and regulatory adherence throughout the acquisition process. While specific contractor names are not available, Sharp’s procurement patterns indicate a balanced engagement with both large-capability vendors and small business concerns, fostering competitive environments that promote innovation and market diversity. She maintains collaborative relationships with vendors who demonstrate technical proficiency in IT services and facilities operations, encouraging responsive performance and contractual compliance. Her approach emphasizes fair and open competition, with a clear preference for structured solicitation methods that support robust bidder participation. Sharp exhibits a strong commitment to socioeconomic contracting, with approximately half of her acquisitions designated as Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5, reflecting a deliberate strategy to expand opportunities for small businesses. The remaining half are awarded under no set-aside conditions, indicating a flexible yet deliberate balance between broad competition and targeted small business inclusion. This pattern underscores her dedication to fulfilling federal small business goals while maintaining acquisition efficiency. Her primary NAICS focus areas—541511 (Custom Computer Programming Services) and 561210 (Facilities Support Services)—reveal deep expertise in procuring bespoke software solutions, systems integration, and comprehensive facility management services. She regularly handles contracts for software development, IT modernization, maintenance support, and operational logistics, demonstrating a technical understanding of both software engineering lifecycles and facility operations standards.
