Brenda Cooley

Brenda Cooley serves as a key procurement lead within the Public Buildings Service’s R5 Acquisition Management Division, overseeing the acquisition of mission-critical facility support services for federal buildings nationwide. She manages a diverse portfolio of contracts focused on interior renovations, building systems upgrades, and operational support, ensuring compliance with federal infrastructure modernization priorities. Her work directly supports the General Services Administration’s mandate to maintain safe, efficient, and sustainable federal workspaces through strategic sourcing and contract execution. Cooley specializes in complex, multi-disciplinary procurements that integrate construction, environmental, and facility services under a unified acquisition framework. Her primary contractor relationship is with McKenzie Construction & Site Development LLC, a trusted partner in facility renovation and site development services. She consistently engages this vendor for integrated construction and infrastructure support tasks, reflecting a pattern of long-term, performance-based partnerships built on reliability and technical proficiency. While McKenzie is her most frequent collaborator, Cooley also coordinates with a broad network of specialized service providers to deliver comprehensive facility solutions across multiple federal sites. Cooley’s procurement activity shows no use of socioeconomic set-asides, with 100% of awards issued under full and open competition. This reflects a strategic preference for selecting the most qualified offerors based on technical merit and past performance, rather than socioeconomic criteria. Her approach prioritizes operational efficiency and mission readiness over targeted small business allocation, aligning with the agency’s emphasis on high-performance outcomes in critical infrastructure projects. Her procurement focus centers on NAICS codes 484210 (moving services), 541620 (environmental consulting), 562111 (solid waste collection), 541330 (engineering services), and 722310 (food service contracting). These reflect a broad spectrum of facility operations support, from hazardous material assessments and waste management to structural engineering and on-site catering. Cooley’s expertise lies in integrating these disparate services into cohesive, mission-aligned contracts that sustain the functionality of federal buildings under evolving operational demands.
