Kerri A. Bishop

Kerri A. Bishop serves as a Contracting Officer at the Federal Law Enforcement Training Center’s Glynco Procurement Office, where she manages mission-critical acquisitions that support the modernization of federal law enforcement training infrastructure. Her portfolio encompasses the procurement of specialized facilities, physical infrastructure upgrades, and operational support systems essential to maintaining readiness across federal agencies. She is responsible for full lifecycle contract management—from market research and solicitation development to award and closeout—ensuring compliance with FAR regulations while aligning acquisitions with the Center’s strategic goals of enhancing training environments and securing operational capabilities. Bishop maintains consistent working relationships with a select group of vendors specializing in facility construction and maintenance, including Diversified Fabricators & Erectors, Inc., Builders Supply Inc., and Contender Boats, Inc. These partnerships reflect a focus on durable, high-performance products tailored to law enforcement training needs, such as custom metal fenestration systems, marine training vessels, and infrastructure support services. Her contracting approach emphasizes reliability, technical specificity, and long-term operational value, fostering collaborative vendor engagement grounded in performance accountability and regulatory compliance. With a balanced 50% allocation to total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5, Bishop demonstrates a strong commitment to socioeconomic contracting goals, actively promoting opportunities for small businesses while maintaining flexibility for non-set-aside procurements when technical or operational requirements demand broader competition. Her approach ensures equitable access while preserving mission integrity. Her primary NAICS focus lies in Metal Window and Door Manufacturing (332321) and Parking Lots and Garages (812930), reflecting deep expertise in procuring specialized architectural components and secure, high-traffic infrastructure essential to training facility modernization. She brings technical proficiency in construction standards, security-grade materials, and site-specific engineering requirements critical to federal law enforcement training environments.
