Zachary Baldwin

Zachary Baldwin serves as a key procurement professional within the GSA/FAS Center for IT Schedule Program, where he supports the acquisition of mission-critical information technology services aligned with federal digital transformation goals. He manages the execution of blanket purchase agreements and schedule contracts under the IT Schedule 70 program, facilitating streamlined access to pre-vetted telecommunications, cloud infrastructure, managed services, and cybersecurity solutions for federal agencies. His work ensures rapid deployment of scalable, compliant IT capabilities while upholding GSA’s mandate to reduce acquisition cycle times and enhance interagency collaboration. Baldwin engages with a broad ecosystem of IT vendors holding GSA Schedule 70 contracts, including system integrators, managed service providers, and cloud-native technology firms. He works closely with contractors certified under the Multiple Award Schedule program to ensure adherence to federal pricing, labor categories, and cybersecurity requirements such as NIST SP 800-171 and CMMC. His contracting patterns reflect a preference for established schedule holders with proven performance histories, fostering long-term, performance-based vendor relationships grounded in compliance and service reliability. His procurement activity shows no use of socioeconomic set-asides, with 100% of acquisitions conducted under full and open competition. This reflects a strategic focus on maximizing vendor competition and leveraging the breadth of pre-qualified Schedule 70 contractors rather than restricting eligibility. While small business participation is not formally prioritized in his award patterns, he ensures all vendors—regardless of size—meet stringent technical and regulatory standards. Baldwin’s primary focus is on NAICS 511210, which encompasses software publishing and customized software development services. He regularly procures cloud migration tools, enterprise network management systems, AI-driven analytics platforms, and managed IT infrastructure services. His technical expertise lies in evaluating complex IT architectures and ensuring procurements align with OMB and CIO guidance on modernization, interoperability, and zero-trust security frameworks.
