Duncan Warner

Duncan Warner supports the Federal Acquisition Service’s Office of Acquisition Operations within GSA, playing a critical role in procuring essential travel, transportation, and facility support services that sustain federal mobility and operational readiness. He manages a diverse portfolio of acquisitions aligned with the agency’s mission to modernize the government’s travel ecosystem, including air transportation, lodging, and travel management solutions. His work ensures compliance with federal procurement regulations while driving efficiency and cost-effectiveness across federal agencies. He typically handles task orders and indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity (IDIQ) contracts under GSA schedules and governmentwide acquisition contracts, with a focus on service-based requirements that enable seamless government operations. Warner cultivates strategic partnerships with a broad spectrum of vendors, including large prime contractors and small business subcontractors, to deliver integrated travel and facility support solutions. His contracting patterns reflect collaboration with firms experienced in federal travel management systems, lodging procurement, and building services, often leveraging GSA’s Multiple Award Schedules and Blanket Purchase Agreements. He emphasizes performance-based contracting and outcome-driven requirements to ensure service quality and accountability across vendor networks. His procurement strategy prioritizes socioeconomic inclusion, with approximately half of his actions competed without set-asides, while actively reserving 25% for 8(a) firms and another 25% for total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5. This balanced approach reflects a deliberate commitment to expanding opportunities for small, disadvantaged, and historically underutilized businesses while maintaining competitive rigor. He consistently structures solicitations to encourage small business participation through simplified acquisition procedures and clear evaluation criteria favoring past performance and capability. Warner’s primary procurement focus centers on NAICS 236220 for commercial and institutional building construction, alongside significant activity in facilities support services (561210), travel agencies (561510), and building cleaning services (561720 and 561790). He specializes in procuring integrated service packages that combine physical infrastructure support with administrative logistics, demonstrating deep expertise in facility lifecycle management and government travel infrastructure modernization.
