Adrian T. Gilmore

Adrian T. Gilmore serves as a key procurement lead within the Farm Production and Conservation Business Center’s Management Services Division, responsible for securing real estate infrastructure to support USDA’s field-level agricultural and conservation operations. He manages a portfolio of non-residential leasing and real property acquisition contracts essential to establishing and maintaining physical access points for farm assistance, disaster response, and conservation outreach in rural and underserved communities. His acquisitions focus on enabling scalable, mission-critical infrastructure that supports USDA personnel and program delivery across diverse geographic regions. Gilmore maintains long-standing relationships with a focused group of real estate and construction vendors, including Greenwood Properties, L.L.P., and McKenzie Construction & Site Development LLC, which consistently provide leasing, site development, and facility management services. His contracting patterns reflect a preference for established, regionally experienced contractors with proven capacity in property acquisition, tenant improvements, and land-use compliance. These partnerships are characterized by repeat engagement and performance-based contract administration, ensuring alignment with the agency’s operational timelines and spatial requirements. There is no use of socioeconomic set-asides in Gilmore’s procurement activity; all contracts are awarded under full and open competition. This reflects a strategic emphasis on efficiency, broad market access, and standardized compliance rather than targeted socioeconomic preferences. While small business participation is not formally incentivized, vendors of all sizes compete equitably based on capability, location, and service delivery track record. His primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 531120 (Lessors of Nonresidential Buildings) and 531190 (Lessors of Other Real Estate Property), indicating deep expertise in commercial real estate leasing, property management, and land-use agreements. He specializes in acquiring office spaces, field service centers, and auxiliary facilities tailored to agricultural outreach programs, with an emphasis on accessibility, durability, and regulatory compliance in rural environments.
