Beverly R Ekimoto

Beverly R. Ekimoto serves as a Contracting Officer responsible for managing federal acquisitions in support of facility maintenance and construction-related missions. She plays a critical role in ensuring compliance with federal procurement regulations while advancing agency objectives through transparent, competitive contracting processes. Her portfolio is exclusively focused on construction services, particularly those governed by NAICS 238320, which encompasses painting and wall covering contractors. Ekimoto oversees the full lifecycle of contracts—from solicitation and source selection to award and administration—ensuring alignment with FAR requirements and sound fiscal stewardship. Her contractor relationships are centered on small businesses, particularly those certified under the 8(a) Business Development Program, which represents the majority of her awarded contracts. She routinely engages with a network of small, disadvantaged firms capable of delivering high-quality interior finish services, fostering long-term vendor partnerships built on performance accountability and regulatory compliance. While the majority of her awards are competed under 8(a) authorities, she also administers contracts under total small business set-asides and unrestricted competitions, demonstrating a balanced approach to market access and competition. Ekimoto exhibits a strong and consistent commitment to socioeconomic contracting, with 57.1% of her awards directed to 8(a) certified firms, reflecting a deliberate strategy to promote economic opportunity for disadvantaged entrepreneurs. Her contracting patterns prioritize small business participation, aligning with federal goals to increase contracting opportunities for underserved communities. The remaining awards are distributed between unrestricted competitions and total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5, reinforcing her dedication to broad-based small business engagement. Her technical expertise lies exclusively in NAICS 238320, where she procures specialized interior finishing services including surface preparation, paint application, wall covering installation, and related maintenance work. She is well-versed in the technical specifications, labor standards, and safety protocols unique to commercial and institutional painting contracts, ensuring that all procurements meet rigorous quality and performance benchmarks.
