Daniel Pearman

Daniel Pearman serves as a procurement professional responsible for managing acquisitions within the recyclable materials supply chain, with a singular focus on merchant wholesaling of recyclable commodities under NAICS 423930. His role centers on ensuring the reliable and efficient procurement of secondary raw materials such as scrap metals, paper, plastics, and glass to support federal operations and sustainability initiatives. He exercises full contracting authority over competitive solicitations, ensuring compliance with federal acquisition regulations and aligning purchases with broader environmental stewardship goals. His acquisitions are typically structured as indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity (IDIQ) contracts and blanket purchase agreements to support ongoing operational needs. Pearman maintains a broad network of commercial wholesalers and material recovery facilities that supply standardized recyclable commodities. His contracting approach emphasizes open competition, with no preference for set-aside programs—100% of awards are issued under full and open competition. This reflects a strategic decision to prioritize market efficiency and cost-effectiveness over socioeconomic targeting, while still ensuring vendor performance and quality standards are rigorously enforced through contract administration and performance metrics. His procurement patterns reveal a deliberate exclusion of all socioeconomic set-asides, including 8(a), HUBZone, SDVOSB, and WOSB programs. This consistent approach underscores a mission-driven focus on maximizing value and supply chain reliability rather than socioeconomic participation metrics. He evaluates vendors based on pricing, delivery performance, material certification, and environmental compliance rather than business size or ownership status. Pearman’s expertise lies exclusively in the recyclable material wholesale sector, where he procures bulk quantities of sorted and processed secondary materials used in manufacturing and waste diversion programs. His technical domain requires deep familiarity with material specifications, recycling certifications, and logistics coordination for high-volume, low-margin commodities. He ensures all procurements meet federal sustainability mandates and support circular economy objectives through disciplined sourcing practices.
