Tami Crooks

Tami N. Crooks serves as a procurement professional responsible for managing a diverse portfolio of service-based acquisitions aligned with federal operational support needs. While specific agency affiliation is not disclosed, her work centers on acquiring essential infrastructure and facility services critical to mission-enabling functions. She routinely handles solicitations under the Federal Acquisition Regulation, with a strong emphasis on competitive contracting methods that prioritize small business participation. Her acquisitions typically involve maintenance, inspection, and utility-related services, reflecting a focus on sustaining public-sector facilities and environmental health systems. Crooks cultivates relationships with a broad spectrum of vendors, particularly small businesses specializing in plumbing, heating, air-conditioning, drycleaning, and septic system services. She engages with both local and regional contractors, often leveraging multiple award schedules and indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity contracts to ensure responsive, cost-effective service delivery. Her contracting approach emphasizes vendor reliability, compliance with environmental and safety standards, and performance-based outcomes, fostering long-term partnerships with firms capable of delivering consistent, high-quality support. A defining feature of Crooks’ procurement strategy is her pronounced commitment to small business set-asides, with 65% of her awards designated under FAR 19.5 Total Small Business Set-Asides. This reflects a deliberate effort to expand economic opportunity and ensure equitable access to federal contracting for small, locally owned enterprises. Her pattern of awarding contracts without set-asides—35%—demonstrates flexibility to meet urgent or specialized requirements while maintaining a strong socioeconomic footprint. Her technical expertise lies in NAICS-coded services including plumbing and HVAC contracting (238220), building inspection (541350), drycleaning and laundry services (812320), and septic tank operations (562991). She procures maintenance, repair, and inspection services for municipal and institutional facilities, demonstrating deep familiarity with regulatory compliance, environmental health standards, and facility lifecycle management. Her work ensures critical infrastructure remains operational, safe, and compliant with federal and local codes.
