David Berry

David Berry serves as a Contracting Specialist within the Public Buildings Service’s R8 Acquisition Management Division, where he plays a pivotal role in executing the federal government’s infrastructure modernization mission. He manages the full lifecycle of acquisition programs for commercial and institutional building construction, architectural services, and facility operations support, ensuring compliance with FAR and GSA policies. His work directly supports the safe, efficient, and sustainable operation of federal buildings and land ports of entry across the nation, with a strong emphasis on integrated design-build solutions and facility lifecycle management. Berry maintains consistent contracting relationships with a core group of contractors specializing in construction and building services, including LEA MARIE LLC, SECURITYHUNTER, INC., MCKENZIE CONSTRUCTION & SITE DEVELOPMENT LLC, and HANDYMAN NATION INC. These partnerships reflect a preference for experienced, locally rooted firms capable of delivering complex construction and maintenance services under tight federal standards. His procurement approach emphasizes performance-based outcomes, clear scope definition, and robust contract administration to ensure quality and accountability across project deliverables. A staunch advocate for small business participation, Berry consistently prioritizes socioeconomic set-asides, with approximately 80% of his acquisitions structured as Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5, and an additional 10% designated for 8(a) competed contracts. This pattern underscores a deliberate strategy to expand economic opportunity for small, disadvantaged, and locally owned businesses while maintaining competitive rigor and program integrity. His procurement focus is concentrated in NAICS 236220 (Commercial and Institutional Building Construction), which accounts for 70% of his portfolio, complemented by NAICS 541310 (Architectural Services) and NAICS 561720 (Janitorial Services). He specializes in acquiring integrated construction services, building system upgrades, and facility maintenance contracts, demonstrating deep expertise in federal facility infrastructure procurement and performance-based service delivery.
