Felicia D Cannon

Felicia D. Cannon serves as a Contract Specialist within the Public Buildings Service’s R10 Construction Acquisitions Branch under the General Services Administration, where she plays a pivotal role in executing complex construction and facility modernization procurements across Alaska and the Pacific Northwest. Her responsibilities include developing solicitation documents, conducting market research, evaluating proposals, and managing contract awards in alignment with FAR guidelines and GSA’s mission to deliver secure, resilient, and energy-efficient federal infrastructure. She specializes in design-build and integrated project delivery contracts for commercial and institutional buildings, ensuring compliance with federal sustainability and operational continuity requirements. Felicia collaborates with a diverse array of contractors, including general contractors, design-build firms, and specialized engineering and construction management firms, many of which hold small business certifications. Her procurement approach emphasizes competitive fairness and performance-based outcomes, fostering long-term vendor partnerships grounded in transparency and accountability. While no single contractor dominates her portfolio, she consistently engages qualified firms capable of delivering high-stakes, geographically challenging projects under stringent federal standards. A strong advocate for socioeconomic equity, Felicia prioritizes small business participation with equal distribution across 8(a) competed, total small business set-asides, and open competitions, reflecting a balanced commitment to inclusion and market competitiveness. Her contracting patterns demonstrate deliberate alignment with FAR 19.5 and 8(a) program objectives, ensuring opportunities for disadvantaged, veteran-owned, and HUBZone-certified firms without compromising acquisition integrity or project performance. Her primary technical focus lies in NAICS 236220 (Commercial and Institutional Building Construction), where she manages full-cycle procurements for new construction, renovation, and seismic retrofitting of federal facilities. She also engages NAICS 531320 (Real Estate Appraisers) for valuation and property assessment services integral to acquisition planning. Felicia’s expertise centers on mission-critical infrastructure delivery, combining deep knowledge of construction standards, resilience requirements, and federal procurement law to support the GSA’s mandate for durable, high-performance federal buildings.
