John A. Hanley

John A. Hanley serves as Information Technology Manager at the GSA/FAS Center for IT Schedule Program, where he plays a pivotal role in advancing federal procurement of mission-critical IT solutions. He oversees the administration and optimization of blanket purchase agreements and governmentwide acquisition contracts, ensuring streamlined access to pre-vetted telecommunications, cloud infrastructure, managed services, and cybersecurity solutions. His work directly supports the agency’s mission to modernize federal IT ecosystems through scalable, compliant, and efficient procurement pathways that reduce acquisition cycle times and enhance agency digital transformation efforts. Hanley maintains collaborative relationships with a broad spectrum of IT vendors, including large systems integrators, cloud service providers, and niche technology firms that hold IT Schedule 70 and other GSA contract vehicles. He engages with contractors through competitive solicitation processes, performance evaluations, and contract management reviews, fostering a vendor ecosystem that prioritizes innovation, interoperability, and FedRAMP-compliant platforms. His working relationships emphasize long-term partnership over transactional procurement, encouraging continuous improvement and adaptive service delivery. Hanley demonstrates a balanced commitment to socioeconomic programs, with approximately half of his acquisitions structured as total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5. This reflects a deliberate strategy to expand opportunities for small businesses, including those certified under HUBZone, SDB, and WOSB programs, while maintaining open competition for larger, complex requirements. His contracting patterns consistently prioritize equitable access, ensuring small businesses play a substantive role in delivering federal IT capabilities. His technical focus centers on NAICS categories related to IT services, cloud computing, network infrastructure, and managed support services. He routinely procures solutions such as SaaS platforms, hybrid cloud environments, network modernization services, endpoint security systems, and IT helpdesk operations—all aligned with federal mandates for secure, scalable, and resilient digital infrastructure.
