Daniel G Pearman

Daniel Pearman serves as a QRP Manager, responsible for overseeing the procurement of recyclable material wholesale services in alignment with federal sustainability and supply chain efficiency objectives. In this role, he ensures acquisitions are executed in compliance with FAR regulations and agency-wide environmental stewardship goals. His portfolio centers on the strategic sourcing of recyclable commodities, including paper, plastics, metals, and other reusable materials, primarily through merchant wholesalers. Pearman plays a critical role in standardizing procurement practices to support circular economy initiatives and reduce institutional waste streams through reliable, high-volume supply agreements. Pearman maintains consistent relationships with a broad base of recyclable material merchant wholesalers, engaging primarily with established industry suppliers who meet federal delivery, quality, and reporting standards. His contracting approach emphasizes performance-based outcomes, long-term vendor reliability, and supply chain transparency. While no single contractor dominates his award profile, he routinely works with firms possessing robust logistics networks and certified environmental management systems, fostering partnerships grounded in compliance, scalability, and operational consistency. His procurement pattern reflects a strict preference for non-set-aside acquisitions, with 100% of contracts awarded under open competition. This indicates a focus on market-wide competition to ensure cost-effectiveness and operational efficiency, rather than socioeconomic set-asides such as 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB programs. His approach prioritizes technical capability and supply chain resilience over socioeconomic targeting, aligning with the unique nature of the recyclable materials market. Pearman’s primary focus is NAICS 423930—Recyclable Material Merchant Wholesalers—reflecting deep expertise in the secondary materials supply chain. He procures bulk recyclables for reuse in manufacturing and industrial applications, requiring precise specifications on material purity, contamination thresholds, and transportation logistics. His domain knowledge spans material classification, recycling certification standards, and environmental compliance frameworks, making him a key liaison between federal operations and the commercial recycling industry.
