Joseph Mendoza

Joseph Mendoza serves as a key procurement lead within the Public Buildings Service’s PBS R9 AMD Recurring Services unit under the General Services Administration, responsible for managing the acquisition of mission-critical, recurring facility support services that sustain federal building operations nationwide. He oversees the planning, solicitation, and award of contracts for essential maintenance and operational services, ensuring compliance with federal standards and the agency’s mandate to maintain safe, efficient, and resilient work environments. His acquisitions primarily involve long-term, service-based contracts requiring consistent performance, quality control, and regulatory adherence, with a strong emphasis on continuity and lifecycle management of building systems. Mendoza collaborates extensively with a diverse pool of service providers, particularly small businesses certified under the 8(a) Business Development Program, as well as non-set-aside contractors capable of delivering nationwide janitorial and training services. His contracting patterns reflect a preference for established vendor partnerships with proven performance histories, fostering reliable, repeat engagements that reduce transition risks and ensure service continuity across federal facilities. He prioritizes vendors with scalable operations, robust quality assurance protocols, and experience in federal facility environments. His procurement strategy is heavily oriented toward socioeconomic inclusion, with 75% of awards designated for 8(a) competed set-asides, demonstrating a deliberate commitment to empowering small, disadvantaged businesses. This pattern underscores a strategic alignment with federal small business goals, while the remaining 25% of acquisitions are conducted under open, non-set-aside competitions to ensure broad market participation and competitive pricing. Mendoza’s primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 561720 (Janitorial Services), which accounts for three-quarters of his portfolio, encompassing custodial, waste management, and facility cleaning services. The remaining quarter centers on NAICS 611430 (Professional and Management Development Training), where he acquires workforce development programs tailored to federal maintenance staff. His expertise spans service-level agreement design, performance-based contracting, and outcome-driven evaluation frameworks for facility support services.
