Jon Carney

MAJ Jonathan Carney serves as a Contract Specialist responsible for managing the full lifecycle of federal acquisitions, ensuring compliance with the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) and promoting mission-critical procurement outcomes. He executes competitive and non-competitive contracting actions across a diverse range of services and construction-related requirements, with a strong emphasis on small business engagement and socioeconomic program objectives. His role is pivotal in translating operational needs into legally sound, efficiently awarded contracts that support agency missions while upholding transparency and accountability in public spending. MAJ Carney cultivates collaborative relationships with a broad spectrum of vendors, particularly small businesses and specialized contractors serving infrastructure and environmental services. While no single contractor dominates his portfolio, he consistently engages with firms capable of delivering complex services in construction, utilities, and facility maintenance. His procurement approach emphasizes fair competition, rigorous source selection, and performance-based contracting, fostering long-term vendor partnerships grounded in quality, compliance, and reliability. A strong advocate for small business participation, MAJ Carney prioritizes set-asides under FAR Part 19, with over half of his acquisitions designated as Total Small Business Set-Asides. He also regularly utilizes Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) set-asides, reflecting a deliberate commitment to socioeconomic contracting goals. His pattern of awarding contracts under no-set-aside provisions demonstrates flexibility to meet urgent or specialized requirements while still maintaining robust small business inclusion across his portfolio. His primary technical focus lies in NAICS codes related to environmental services, commercial construction, and building systems—particularly Septic Tank and Related Services (562991), Commercial and Institutional Building Construction (236220), and Plumbing, Heating, and Air-Conditioning Contractors (238220). He also procures specialized telecommunications and information services, indicating a technical understanding of both physical infrastructure and digital support systems. MAJ Carney’s expertise bridges operational needs with regulatory compliance, ensuring efficient delivery of mission-critical services through strategic, small business-inclusive contracting.
