Tarra M. Woelfle

Tarra M. Woelfle serves as a Contract Specialist responsible for managing the full lifecycle of federal acquisitions, from requirement validation and market research through solicitation, evaluation, award, and contract administration. Her role is central to ensuring compliance with federal procurement regulations while delivering mission-critical services efficiently and transparently. She routinely handles complex, performance-based contracts for technical and engineering services, with a strong emphasis on meeting agency operational needs through competitive and compliant contracting practices. Her work supports the acquisition of high-value technical solutions requiring rigorous oversight and risk mitigation. While no specific contractor relationships are currently identifiable in the data, Woelfle engages with a broad spectrum of vendors, including large primes and small businesses, primarily in engineering and aerospace sectors. Her contracting patterns reflect a preference for open competition, with no set-asides utilized to date, indicating a focus on merit-based selection and broad market participation. She maintains professional, arms-length relationships with contractors, ensuring adherence to FAR principles and avoiding conflicts of interest through rigorous documentation and ethical procurement practices. Woelfle’s procurement strategy reflects a consistent emphasis on full and open competition, with 100% of her awards issued without socioeconomic set-asides. This demonstrates a commitment to leveraging the broadest possible pool of qualified offerors rather than directing awards through targeted programs such as 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB. Her approach prioritizes technical capability and value over socioeconomic criteria, aligning with agency needs that require specialized expertise available across the general marketplace. Her primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 541330 (Engineering Services), where she acquires design, analysis, and systems integration support, and NAICS 336411 (Aircraft Manufacturing), where she procures specialized aerospace components and related technical services. This dual specialization underscores her technical fluency in both systems engineering and advanced manufacturing domains, making her a key player in acquiring complex, high-reliability solutions for defense and aviation-related missions.
