He maintains long-term working relationships with firms possessing expertise in NPS-specific design guidelines, including those certified in historic preservation techniques and sustainable construction practices. His procurement approach emphasizes vendor reliability, technical competence, and adherence to preservation standards, fostering partnerships with both large multidisciplinary firms and specialized niche contractors experienced in federal heritage projects.
