Terri Elliott

Terri Elliott 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 construction, engineering, facilities support, security systems, and food service contracts, reflecting a diverse range of service-based and project-driven acquisitions. Terri works closely with program managers and technical evaluators to align contracting strategies with operational needs, ensuring transparent, competitive, and compliant procurement outcomes. Terri cultivates collaborative relationships with a broad spectrum of vendors, including both large primes and small business subcontractors. While no single contractor dominates her award portfolio, she consistently engages firms capable of delivering integrated facilities solutions, professional engineering services, and mission-support operations. Her working relationships emphasize performance-based contracting, clear statement of work development, and robust post-award oversight to ensure quality and accountability across contract performance. Terri demonstrates a balanced commitment to socioeconomic contracting, with an equal split between open competitions and Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5. She actively prioritizes small business participation, leveraging set-aside authorities to expand opportunities for small businesses without favoring specific socioeconomic categories such as 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB. Her approach reflects a strategic focus on competition and capability over categorical preferences, fostering a level playing field for qualified small businesses across multiple sectors. Her primary procurement focus centers on NAICS codes 236220 (Commercial and Institutional Building Construction), 541330 (Engineering Services), 561210 (Facilities Support Services), 561621 (Security Systems Services), and 722310 (Food Service Contractors). This specialization underscores her expertise in managing complex, multi-disciplinary service contracts that require technical coordination, performance metrics, and compliance with safety and operational standards in federal facilities environments.
