Dan D. Finley

Dan D. Finley serves as a Contract Specialist responsible for managing the full lifecycle of federal acquisitions, from solicitation through contract award and administration. He plays a critical role in ensuring compliance with the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) while supporting mission-critical infrastructure and facility projects. His portfolio primarily encompasses construction and engineering services, with a focus on commercial and institutional building projects, mechanical systems, and specialty trade contracting. Finley ensures acquisitions align with agency objectives by leveraging competitive procedures, evaluating technical proposals, and negotiating contract terms that balance risk, cost, and performance. While specific contractor names are not available, Finley maintains relationships with a diverse pool of vendors, including general contractors, specialty trade firms, and engineering consultants. His procurement patterns reflect a preference for open competition, with a strong emphasis on small business participation. He regularly engages with firms capable of delivering complex construction services, often coordinating with project managers and technical specialists to ensure contractual requirements align with facility needs and safety standards. Finley demonstrates a robust commitment to socioeconomic contracting, with over 30% of his awards designated as Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5. Though 8(a) competed set-asides account for a modest share, his overall approach prioritizes expanding opportunities for small businesses, particularly those certified under the Small Business Administration’s programs. His contracting patterns reflect a balanced strategy that supports broad market access while maintaining competitive integrity. His primary procurement focus lies in NAICS codes 236220 (Commercial and Institutional Building Construction), 238220 (Plumbing, Heating, and Air-Conditioning Contractors), and 238990 (All Other Specialty Trade Contractors), with additional activity in roofing and engineering services. This specialization underscores his expertise in managing integrated facility projects requiring coordination among multiple trade disciplines and technical oversight.
