Chelsea Brown

Chelsea Brown serves as a key procurement professional within the Public Buildings Service’s PBS Acq Center Facility Management Services - R3, operating under the General Services Administration. She manages the acquisition of mission-critical custodial and facility support services essential to maintaining the operational integrity of federal buildings nationwide. Her responsibilities include soliciting, evaluating, and awarding contracts for janitorial and building maintenance services, ensuring compliance with federal acquisition regulations and performance standards. She plays a central role in executing the agency’s mandate to deliver clean, safe, and fully functional environments for judicial, administrative, and public service operations. Her primary contractor relationships center on DIDLAKE INC, a long-standing vendor with consistent performance in facility services. Brown cultivates stable, performance-driven partnerships with contractors who demonstrate reliability in delivering standardized custodial protocols, waste management, and facility readiness support across diverse federal sites. Her contracting approach emphasizes accountability, service-level adherence, and continuous operational improvement, fostering a vendor ecosystem grounded in quality and compliance. Brown’s procurement portfolio reflects a strong preference for open competition, with 80% of awards issued without set-aside restrictions. However, she consistently reserves 20% of opportunities for Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5, actively promoting small business participation without favoring specific socioeconomic categories like 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB. This balanced strategy ensures broad market access while maintaining competitive rigor. Her technical expertise is narrowly focused on NAICS 561720—Janitorial Services—where she procures comprehensive cleaning, disinfection, trash removal, and facility support services tailored to federal building standards. She specializes in performance-based contracting models that emphasize outcome metrics, safety compliance, and environmental sustainability, making her a specialist in facility operations procurement within the federal real estate portfolio.
