Fred M Pohlmann

Fred M. Pohlmann serves as Supervisor of Contract Administration, overseeing the end-to-end lifecycle of federal acquisitions to ensure compliance, efficiency, and mission alignment. In this leadership role, he directs contract execution, monitors performance metrics, and provides guidance to contracting specialists on regulatory adherence and risk mitigation. His responsibilities include reviewing solicitation documents, evaluating source selection criteria, and ensuring contract awards align with statutory and procedural requirements. Pohlmann’s portfolio centers on complex service and construction contracts requiring precise technical evaluation and robust oversight, making him a critical steward of fiscal accountability and operational readiness within his organization. Pohlmann cultivates professional relationships with a diverse array of contractors across multiple sectors, including construction firms, specialized maintenance providers, and technical service vendors. While no single contractor dominates his award profile, his administration consistently engages with qualified small and mid-tier vendors capable of delivering specialized commercial and institutional construction services, automotive maintenance solutions, and professional technical support. His approach emphasizes transparency, competitive bidding, and performance-based contracting, fostering long-term vendor partnerships grounded in accountability and quality delivery. Pohlmann’s contracting patterns reflect a strong preference for full and open competition, with 100% of his acquisitions classified as “No Set-Aside.” This underscores a strategic emphasis on merit-based selection rather than socioeconomic set-asides, though he maintains rigorous standards for small business eligibility when voluntarily included in solicitations. His approach prioritizes capability and compliance over programmatic preferences, ensuring that all vendors—regardless of size or certification—are evaluated on technical merit and past performance. His primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 236220 (Commercial and Institutional Building Construction), 811198 (Automotive Repair and Maintenance), and 541990 (Professional, Scientific, and Technical Services), reflecting expertise in facility infrastructure, vehicle maintenance systems, and specialized technical consulting. He regularly manages contracts for sheet metal fabrication and short-line railroad operations, demonstrating a nuanced understanding of niche industrial and transportation domains. Pohlmann’s technical acumen ensures that acquisitions meet rigorous engineering and operational standards across these specialized fields.
