Florastine E Tyler

Florastine E. Tyler serves as a Purchasing Agent responsible for managing the acquisition of real estate appraisal services on behalf of her agency. In this role, she ensures compliance with federal procurement regulations while facilitating timely and cost-effective contracts that support mission-critical property valuation and asset management functions. Her work is central to maintaining accurate real estate data used in federal land management, taxation, and infrastructure planning. Tyler typically handles sole-source and competitive sealed bid procurements under simplified acquisition procedures, focusing on professional services rather than goods or construction. Her contractor relationships are centered on independent real estate appraisers and small appraisal firms with specialized expertise in federal property valuation standards. While no specific vendor names are currently identifiable, her procurement pattern reflects a preference for qualified, licensed professionals with demonstrated experience in federal appraisal guidelines, including USPAP compliance. She engages vendors through open market solicitations, leveraging industry networks to ensure a robust pool of eligible service providers. Tyler exhibits a clear preference for non-set-aside acquisitions, with 100% of her procurements conducted under general market conditions without socioeconomic set-asides such as 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB programs. This reflects a procurement strategy prioritizing technical competency and regulatory alignment over socioeconomic targeting, consistent with the specialized nature of appraisal services where certification and experience are paramount. Her procurement activity is exclusively focused on NAICS 531320 — Offices of Real Estate Appraisers — indicating deep specialization in professional real estate valuation services. She routinely acquires residential, commercial, and federal property appraisals, ensuring adherence to Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice. Her technical expertise lies in evaluating appraiser qualifications, scope of work, and reporting standards required for federal asset accountability and compliance.
