Cory Schubert

Cory Schubert serves as a key procurement professional within the Public Buildings Service’s PBS R8 Acquisition Management Division under the General Services Administration, overseeing the acquisition of commercial and institutional building construction services for federal facilities nationwide. Responsible for managing design-build and facility modernization contracts, Schubert ensures the delivery of safe, efficient, and mission-critical infrastructure for federal buildings and land ports of entry. Their work directly supports the agency’s mandate to maintain and upgrade the federal real property portfolio through integrated project delivery methods, with a strong emphasis on performance-based contracting and lifecycle cost management. Schubert maintains consistent working relationships with a focused group of contractors, including LEA MARIE LLC, SECURITYHUNTER, INC., MCKENZIE CONSTRUCTION & SITE DEVELOPMENT LLC, and HANDYMAN NATION INC., all of which provide specialized construction, site development, and facility maintenance services. These partnerships reflect a preference for experienced, locally rooted firms capable of executing complex, multi-trade projects under tight federal compliance standards. The working relationships are characterized by repeat engagements, performance-based evaluations, and a reliance on proven subcontracting networks to deliver integrated building solutions. A defining feature of Schubert’s procurement strategy is the exclusive use of Total Small Business Set-Aside authority under FAR 19.5, demonstrating a steadfast commitment to small business participation across all active contracts. No other socioeconomic categories are utilized, reinforcing a singular focus on empowering small businesses as prime contractors in the federal construction sector. This pattern ensures broad access to federal opportunities for small firms with demonstrated capability in building construction. The procurement portfolio is entirely centered on NAICS 236220—Commercial and Institutional Building Construction—encompassing new construction, renovations, tenant improvements, and facility upgrades for federal properties. Schubert’s expertise lies in managing contracts for structural, mechanical, and electrical systems integration, with an emphasis on code-compliant, sustainable, and security-enhanced building environments.
