Tracey Holt

Tracey L. Holt serves as a Contract Specialist responsible for managing the full lifecycle of complex procurement actions, from market research and solicitation development to contract award and administration. She plays a critical role in ensuring compliance with federal acquisition regulations while advancing mission-critical acquisitions across advanced manufacturing sectors. Her portfolio primarily encompasses technical procurement of electronic components, precision bearings, and specialized electrical systems used in defense and aerospace applications, requiring deep familiarity with technical specifications, source selection criteria, and performance-based contracting methodologies. Tracey cultivates strategic relationships with a diverse base of industrial suppliers, particularly those specializing in high-precision manufacturing and electronic subsystems. While no single contractor dominates her portfolio, she consistently engages with mid-tier and small business manufacturers capable of meeting stringent military and aerospace quality standards, including AS9100 and ISO 9001 certifications. Her contracting approach emphasizes competitive bidding, clear performance metrics, and supplier capability assessments to ensure reliable delivery of mission-critical components. Her procurement patterns reflect a strong preference for open competition, with approximately 80.8% of actions conducted without set-asides. Nevertheless, she actively supports small business participation, with 14.2% of awards designated as Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5, and a notable focus on Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses (3.7%) and HUBZone firms (1.3%). This balanced approach demonstrates a commitment to both efficiency and socioeconomic goals under federal contracting policy. Tracey’s primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 334419 (Other Electronic Component Manufacturing), followed by 332991 (Ball and Roller Bearing Manufacturing) and 336320 (Motor Vehicle Electrical and Electronic Equipment Manufacturing). She specializes in sourcing highly engineered components for use in avionics, power systems, and control electronics, requiring technical fluency in material specifications, tolerances, and supply chain resilience standards. Her expertise ensures the acquisition of mission-essential hardware that meets rigorous performance and reliability benchmarks.
