Georgann E. Butler

Georgann E. Butler serves as a Contracting Officer responsible for managing the acquisition lifecycle for a diverse portfolio of construction and creative services. In her role, she ensures compliance with federal procurement regulations while advancing agency objectives through transparent, competitive, and efficient contracting practices. She typically handles complex solicitations under the Federal Acquisition Regulation, including fixed-price and cost-reimbursement contracts, with a focus on delivering mission-critical infrastructure and cultural services. Her work supports the procurement of both physical facilities and specialized artistic programming, requiring nuanced evaluation of technical proposals, performance metrics, and contractor qualifications. While no specific contractor relationships are currently identifiable in the data, Butler engages with a broad spectrum of vendors, ranging from large-scale commercial builders to independent artists and creative professionals. Her contracting approach emphasizes fair competition, clear performance standards, and rigorous source selection processes, fostering relationships built on accountability and regulatory adherence. She works closely with technical evaluators and small business specialists to ensure proposals meet both functional requirements and socioeconomic goals. Butler’s procurement profile reflects a strong preference for open competition, with 100% of her awards issued without set-aside designations. This indicates a strategic focus on maximizing competition among all eligible firms rather than reserving contracts for specific socioeconomic categories. While she does not currently prioritize 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB set-asides, her processes remain fully compliant with all applicable small business statutes and encourage voluntary participation. Her primary procurement focus lies in two distinct NAICS categories: 236220 for commercial and institutional building construction, and 711510 for independent artists, writers, and performers. This dual specialization reflects expertise in managing both capital construction projects and performance-based creative services, requiring deep familiarity with construction standards, design-build methodologies, and intellectual property considerations in artistic deliverables.
