Steven C Gordon

Steven C. Gordon serves as a Contracting Officer responsible for managing the full lifecycle of federal acquisitions, from requirements definition and market research through solicitation, evaluation, award, and contract administration. He plays a critical role in ensuring compliance with the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) and advancing agency mission objectives through strategic sourcing. His portfolio primarily encompasses professional services, particularly in management consulting, financial investment activities, and information services, with a strong emphasis on performance-based contracting and outcome-driven deliverables. Gordon’s approach prioritizes transparency, competition, and regulatory adherence across all phases of procurement. While no specific contractor relationships are identifiable in current data, Gordon routinely engages with a diverse pool of vendors, including large professional services firms and small businesses, fostering competitive environments that promote innovation and value. His contracting patterns suggest a preference for open competition, with minimal reliance on sole-source or limited-source mechanisms. He works closely with program offices to align procurement strategy with operational needs, ensuring that contract vehicles support efficient service delivery and fiscal accountability. Gordon’s set-aside profile reflects a strong orientation toward open competition, with 97% of awards issued without set-aside designation. Only 3% are designated as Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5, indicating a targeted but limited use of socioeconomic preferences. This pattern suggests a procurement philosophy grounded in full and open competition, with small business participation occurring incidentally rather than as a primary strategy. His primary NAICS focus areas include 541611 (Administrative Management and General Management Consulting Services), 519190 (Other Information Services), 523999 (Miscellaneous Financial Investment Activities), and 812930 (Parking Lots and Garages). These reflect expertise in procuring strategic advisory services, digital information platforms, financial technology support, and facility-related operational services, demonstrating a broad yet specialized technical domain in professional and administrative support contracting.
