Danny T Hager

Danny T. Hager serves as Chief of the Biocontainment Operations Branch at the Federal Law Enforcement Training Center’s Glynco Procurement Office, where he oversees the strategic acquisition of specialized infrastructure and operational systems critical to high-hazard training environments. His role ensures that federal law enforcement personnel have access to secure, compliant, and technologically advanced biocontainment facilities that support counterterrorism, hazardous materials response, and infectious disease simulation training. Hager manages the full lifecycle of procurement activities for mission-critical construction, engineering, and facility modernization projects, with a focus on compliance with federal safety standards and operational readiness requirements. Hager maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of specialized contractors, including Diversified Fabricators & Erectors, Inc., Range Cleaners Inc., Builders Supply Inc., Reynolds-Warren Equipment Company, Inc., and Contender Boats Inc. These partnerships reflect a preference for vendors with proven expertise in custom fabrication, hazardous waste remediation, facility maintenance, and tactical training equipment. His contracting approach emphasizes reliability, technical specificity, and long-term performance over broad competition, fostering stable, high-trust vendor relationships built on adherence to stringent safety and regulatory protocols. Hager’s procurement portfolio exhibits no set-aside preferences, with 100% of awards issued under full and open competition. This reflects a mission-driven prioritization of technical capability and operational readiness over socioeconomic targeting, though small business participation may occur organically through vendor qualifications rather than programmatic preference. His primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 541310 (Architectural Services), indicating deep specialization in facility design, engineering oversight, and construction management for high-security biocontainment environments. He procures services related to HVAC containment systems, negative pressure engineering, decontamination infrastructure, and integrated detection systems—domains requiring precise adherence to CDC, NIH, and DHS biosafety guidelines.
