Jeremy Taylor Primary
Director Of Instructional And Information Technology Jeremy Taylor serves as the primary procurement lead for the Exeter-West Greenwich Regional School District, overseeing the acquisition of professional services critical to maintaining safe, modern, and technologically secure educational facilities. In this role, he manages the full lifecycle of contracts for technical consulting, facility assessments, and cybersecurity infrastructure upgrades, ensuring alignment with state and federal compliance standards. His responsibilities include soliciting, evaluating, and awarding services that enhance building system reliability, digital asset protection, and operational resilience across district campuses. Taylor’s work directly supports the district’s mission to provide equitable, future-ready learning environments through strategic, mission-driven procurement.
Taylor’s contracting approach emphasizes collaboration with qualified technical consultants specializing in educational facility design, energy systems optimization, and IT security architecture. While no single contractor dominates his portfolio, he consistently engages firms with demonstrated expertise in K–12 infrastructure modernization, including architectural and engineering firms, cybersecurity auditors, and building performance analysts. His working relationships are characterized by rigorous vendor qualification, performance-based evaluation criteria, and a preference for firms with prior experience in public education environments.
Taylor’s procurement patterns reflect a strong preference for open competition, with 100% of acquisitions conducted under non-set-aside conditions. He does not routinely utilize 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB set-asides, instead prioritizing technical capability and domain-specific experience over socioeconomic classifications. This approach ensures that contract awards are driven by qualifications and compliance with stringent educational facility standards.
His primary procurement focus lies within NAICS 541690—Other Scientific and Technical Consulting Services—encompassing services such as facility condition assessments, cybersecurity risk evaluations, HVAC system diagnostics, and network infrastructure planning. Taylor specializes in acquiring expert advisory services that bridge physical infrastructure needs with digital security requirements, ensuring all upgrades meet ADA, NFPA, and NIST guidelines. His domain expertise centers on the intersection of educational facility operations and emerging technology integration.
