John Bishop

John Bishop serves in a secondary role within the agency's procurement framework, supporting the acquisition mission through the management of infrastructure and facility-related contracts. The agency's procurement landscape is characterized by a strong emphasis on construction and engineering services. While specific vendor names are not available, the office actively engages with firms capable of executing large-scale building and civil engineering projects. Regarding socioeconomic goals, the agency primarily utilizes full and open competition, with no set-aside preferences applied to the majority of its acquisitions. However, there is a documented commitment to small business participation, with a portion of contracts designated as Total Small Business Set-Asides and others competed under the 8(a) program. The agency's technical focus is heavily concentrated in the construction sector. Procurement activity is primarily driven by requirements for commercial and institutional building construction, complemented by significant needs for engineering services. Additional specialization is evident in heavy and civil engineering construction, including highway, street, and bridge construction, as well as specialized roofing services.
