Cathryn Bradley

Cathryn Bradley serves as a key procurement professional within the Federal Law Enforcement Training Center’s Glynco Procurement Office, supporting the Department of Homeland Security’s mission to equip federal law enforcement personnel with mission-critical infrastructure and services. She manages a diverse portfolio of acquisitions focused on facility modernization, operational technology, and support services essential to training readiness. Her work ensures that training environments meet evolving law enforcement standards through the strategic procurement of physical infrastructure, communications systems, and specialized equipment, aligning with federal acquisition regulations and DHS operational priorities. Bradley maintains consistent relationships with a core group of contractors including Diversified Fabricators & Erectors, Inc., Range Cleaners Inc., Builders Supply Inc., Reynolds-Warren Equipment Company, Inc., and Contender Boats Inc. These partnerships reflect a preference for vendors with proven expertise in facility construction, maintenance, specialized equipment supply, and marine operations support. Her contracting patterns emphasize reliability, technical compliance, and performance-based outcomes, often resulting in long-term vendor engagement for repeat mission-critical deliveries. Her procurement approach prioritizes open competition, with 75% of awards issued without set-asides, while maintaining a strong 25% commitment to Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5. This balance reflects a deliberate strategy to foster competition while ensuring meaningful participation from small businesses across multiple socioeconomic categories, without over-reliance on any single program.
