Charlotte A. Halstead

Charlotte S. Halstead serves as a key procurement lead within the Federal Law Enforcement Training Center’s Glynco Procurement Office, where she manages the acquisition of mission-critical infrastructure, transportation support, and facility services essential to federal law enforcement training readiness. Her work directly enables the modernization of training environments and the sustainment of operational infrastructure, ensuring that federal agencies have secure, reliable, and scalable resources to meet evolving law enforcement demands. She routinely handles complex contracts for facilities support, transit systems, janitorial services, and specialized transportation logistics, applying full lifecycle contracting practices under FAR and agency-specific guidelines. Halstead maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of vendors including Diversified Fabricators & Erectors, Inc., Range Cleaners Inc., Builders Supply Inc., Reynolds-Warren Equipment Company, Inc., and Contender Boats Inc., reflecting a preference for established contractors with proven expertise in law enforcement facility operations, vehicle maintenance, and environmental services. Her procurement approach emphasizes performance-based outcomes, long-term vendor reliability, and technical compliance with federal safety and security standards. Her contracting patterns demonstrate a strong commitment to socioeconomic diversity, with nearly three-quarters of awards structured as small business set-asides—equally split between Total Small Business and 8(a) competed contracts, and a notable emphasis on Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business set-asides. This reflects a deliberate strategy to foster equitable access to federal opportunities while ensuring high-quality, mission-aligned delivery. Her primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 488999 (All Other Support Activities for Transportation), 561210 (Facilities Support Services), 485113 (Bus and Other Motor Vehicle Transit Systems), and 561720 (Janitorial Services), indicating deep expertise in managing integrated support ecosystems for large-scale training campuses. She specializes in procuring everything from vehicle maintenance and transit fleet operations to facility maintenance and environmental sanitation services critical to operational continuity.
