Jumaane Benjamin

Jumanne Benjamin serves as a Contract Specialist within the Public Buildings Service’s PBS R11 Construction Services Division Center 1, part of the General Services Administration. In this role, Jumanne manages the full lifecycle of federal construction and facility support acquisitions, ensuring compliance with federal procurement regulations while advancing the agency’s mission to modernize and sustain mission-critical infrastructure across the National Capital Region. Jumanne typically handles complex design-build, architectural, and facilities support contracts, coordinating with project managers, engineers, and legal advisors to deliver safe, efficient, and environmentally responsible federal buildings. Their work is central to executing integrated procurement strategies that align with GSA’s sustainability and historic preservation goals. Jumanne collaborates with a diverse range of contractors, including commercial and institutional builders, architectural firms, and facilities support service providers. While no single contractor dominates the portfolio, Jumanne consistently engages with firms possessing proven experience in federal construction, historic renovation, and building operations support. Relationships are built on technical competency, past performance, and adherence to federal compliance standards, with an emphasis on performance-based contracting and risk mitigation through clear deliverables and quality assurance protocols. Jumanne’s procurement activity reflects a strong preference for unrestricted competitions, with 100% of acquisitions issued without set-asides. This indicates a focus on full and open competition based on technical merit and value, rather than socioeconomic preferences. While small business participation is not formally prioritized through set-asides, Jumanne remains committed to fair and transparent processes that allow all eligible vendors to compete on an equal footing. The primary NAICS categories Jumanne manages include 236220 (Commercial and Institutional Building Construction), 541310 (Architectural Services), and 561210 (Facilities Support Services), reflecting a core focus on building construction, design, and ongoing operational support. Additional activity in 484210 (Moving Services) and 541611 (Management Consulting) underscores the holistic nature of facility modernization efforts, integrating logistics and strategic planning into capital improvement projects. Jumanne’s expertise lies in managing multidisciplinary procurements that demand technical precision and regulatory rigor.
