Don B Terry

Don B. Terry serves as a Contract Specialist responsible for managing the full lifecycle of federal acquisitions, from requirements definition and market research through solicitation, evaluation, award, and contract administration. His role is central to ensuring compliance with the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) and agency procurement policies, facilitating timely and legally sound contract actions that support operational needs. He primarily handles commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) procurements within the automotive retail sector, focusing on standardized goods and services consistent with New Car Dealership operations under NAICS 441110. His expertise lies in streamlining acquisition processes for high-volume, low-complexity requirements while maintaining strict adherence to competitive procedures and transparency standards. Mr. Terry’s contractor relationships are predominantly with established new and used vehicle dealerships, automotive service providers, and related commercial vendors offering vehicle sales, maintenance, fleet management, and related ancillary services. He engages with a broad base of commercial suppliers, prioritizing open competition and fair market access. His contracting approach emphasizes clear solicitation language, robust source selection criteria, and consistent evaluation methodologies to ensure equitable outcomes for all qualified offerors. His procurement pattern reflects a strict preference for unrestricted, non-set-aside acquisitions, with 100% of his awards issued under full and open competition without socioeconomic set-asides such as 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB programs. This indicates a deliberate focus on market efficiency and broad vendor participation rather than targeted socioeconomic initiatives, aligning with the commercial nature of the goods and services procured. Mr. Terry’s technical domain centers exclusively on NAICS 441110, which encompasses the procurement of new automobiles, related accessories, and dealership-operated services. His expertise includes evaluating vendor capabilities in vehicle inventory management, warranty administration, financing arrangements, and customer service compliance within a commercial retail context, ensuring acquisitions meet both operational and regulatory standards for government vehicle fleets and support functions.
