Terri Wright

Terri Wright serves as a key procurement lead within the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), supporting the agency’s mission to deliver rapid, scalable emergency response capabilities across the Department of Homeland Security. Responsible for managing sole-source and set-aside acquisitions, Wright specializes in securing essential janitorial and sanitation services critical to disaster operations, including temporary shelters, field medical units, and emergency response facilities. Her work ensures compliance with federal procurement regulations while maintaining operational readiness for national incidents, with a focus on timely delivery of hygiene and facility support services under urgent time constraints. Wright maintains consistent contracting relationships with a core group of vendors including FED SERVE LLC, EDGE TECHNOLOGY DISTRIBUTORS, INC., WS ACQUISITION LLC, VIDOVATION CORPORATION, and SAMSTAR LLC. These contractors are frequently selected for their proven capacity to deliver janitorial and decontamination services under high-pressure, mobile, and non-traditional environments. Her procurement approach emphasizes reliability, rapid mobilization, and adherence to DHS safety standards, fostering long-term vendor partnerships built on performance consistency and compliance with emergency response protocols. Wright demonstrates an unwavering commitment to small business participation, directing 100% of her acquisitions to total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5. This reflects a deliberate strategy to empower small, agile firms capable of rapid deployment in crisis scenarios, ensuring equitable access to federal emergency contracts without reliance on large prime contractors. Her contracting patterns consistently prioritize socioeconomic programs aligned with FEMA’s resilience goals, reinforcing community-based economic recovery through targeted small business engagement. Her procurement focus is exclusively centered on NAICS 561720 (Janitorial Services), encompassing deep expertise in disaster-specific sanitation, biohazard waste management, decontamination protocols, and facility maintenance for temporary housing and emergency operations centers. Wright’s domain knowledge ensures that contracted services meet CDC and OSHA standards under extreme conditions, making her a critical link in sustaining public health and operational continuity during national emergencies.
