Yvonne Farr

Yvonne Farr serves as Support Services Section Manager for the General Services Department under the Washington Suburban Sanitary Commission, where she oversees the procurement of critical non-infrastructure support services essential to operational continuity. In this primary contracting role, she manages the acquisition of office equipment leasing, commercial printing, and related administrative support solutions that enable the agency’s mission to maintain and modernize regional water and wastewater infrastructure. Her portfolio focuses on ensuring reliable, cost-effective access to mission-critical support assets, aligning acquisitions with the department’s broader goals of infrastructure resilience and operational efficiency. Yvonne collaborates with a diverse array of vendors specializing in office machinery leasing and commercial printing services, fostering long-term partnerships with firms capable of delivering scalable, compliant, and high-quality support solutions. While no single contractor dominates her portfolio, she consistently engages with vendors who demonstrate technical proficiency in equipment maintenance, secure document handling, and rapid turnaround for high-volume print requirements. Her contracting approach emphasizes performance-based outcomes, service-level agreements, and vendor accountability to ensure uninterrupted support for field and administrative operations. Yvonne’s procurement patterns reflect a strong preference for open competition, with 100% of her acquisitions classified as “No Set-Aside.” She does not currently prioritize socioeconomic set-asides such as 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB programs, instead focusing on vendor capability, reliability, and compliance with federal and state procurement standards. This approach ensures broad market access while maintaining rigorous performance benchmarks for service delivery. Her primary NAICS focus areas are 532420 (Office Machinery and Equipment Rental and Leasing) and 323111 (Commercial Printing), reflecting deep expertise in procuring photocopiers, document management systems, high-speed printing equipment, and secure print services. She specializes in acquiring solutions that support regulatory compliance, data security, and operational scalability across the agency’s distributed facilities.
