Yvonne T. Parson

Yvonne T. Parson serves as a Supervisory Contracting Specialist, providing strategic oversight and technical guidance for complex acquisition initiatives across a diverse range of federal procurement activities. In her role, she ensures compliance with the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR), facilitates competitive bidding processes, and supports mission-critical contracting decisions that align with agency objectives. She routinely manages acquisitions spanning medical equipment, healthcare services, and commercial leasing arrangements, leveraging sound contracting practices to deliver value, transparency, and accountability in every stage of the procurement lifecycle—from market research and solicitation development to contract award and administration. While specific contractor names are not available, her procurement patterns reflect a balanced engagement with both large and small vendors, with a clear emphasis on fostering competitive environments that include small business participation. Her working relationships are characterized by collaboration with vendors across multiple socioeconomic categories, ensuring fair access to federal opportunities while maintaining rigorous standards for performance and compliance. Parson demonstrates a strong commitment to socioeconomic contracting, with nearly 39% of her acquisitions designated as total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5, and an additional 23% allocated to 8(a), HUBZone, and Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) set-asides. This balanced approach underscores her dedication to expanding opportunities for disadvantaged and veteran-owned businesses while maintaining robust competition. Her primary procurement focus lies in NAICS categories including Other Commercial and Industrial Machinery and Equipment Rental and Leasing, Surgical and Medical Instrument Manufacturing, and Miscellaneous Health Practitioner Offices. These reflect her technical expertise in procuring specialized medical devices, healthcare service contracts, and related support infrastructure, positioning her as a key steward of mission-enabling acquisitions within the health and equipment services domains.
