Harold Day

Harold Day serves as the primary procurement lead for the Land, Enforcement, and Air Division (68HERL) within the Environmental Protection Agency, overseeing the acquisition of technical and operational services critical to federal air quality compliance and environmental data management. In this role, he manages the full lifecycle of contracts supporting scientific infrastructure, regulatory enforcement tools, and real-time monitoring systems, ensuring alignment with EPA’s mission to uphold national air standards through data-driven enforcement. His acquisitions typically involve complex, mission-critical IT and technical services requiring high levels of scientific and engineering expertise. Day maintains established relationships with key contractors including HORIBA INSTRUMENTS INCORPORATED, WESTON-TECHLAW JV LLC, and ENVIRONMENTAL DATA SERVICES, LIMITED, each providing specialized capabilities in air quality instrumentation, regulatory compliance support, and environmental data analytics. His contracting patterns reflect a preference for long-term, performance-based partnerships with vendors capable of delivering integrated technical solutions, often involving custom system integration, sensor calibration, and real-time data platform management. There is no preference for socioeconomic set-asides; all acquisitions are competed fully open, reflecting a mission-first approach prioritizing technical capability over socioeconomic criteria. This consistent open competition underscores a focus on securing the highest-quality services to support scientifically rigorous environmental enforcement. His procurement portfolio is evenly distributed across three NAICS categories: Computer Facilities Management Services (541513), Computer Systems Design Services (541512), and Parking Lots and Garages (812930). The first two reflect core investments in data center operations and environmental monitoring system design, while the latter likely supports facility infrastructure for field stations and regulatory enforcement sites. His expertise lies at the intersection of environmental science and enterprise IT, ensuring that technical infrastructure directly enables regulatory compliance and public health protection.
