Kimberly A Bishop

Kimberly A. Bishop serves as a Contract Specialist within the Public Buildings Service’s R5 Acquisition Management Division, where she plays a pivotal role in executing federal construction and facility support acquisitions under the General Services Administration. Her responsibilities include managing the full lifecycle of procurement actions—from market research and solicitation development to contract award and administration—for interior renovations, building systems upgrades, and mission-critical facility services. She ensures compliance with federal acquisition regulations while aligning procurements with the agency’s strategic goals of modernizing federal infrastructure and enhancing operational efficiency across the national building portfolio. Kimberly maintains a consistent working relationship with MCKENZIE CONSTRUCTION & SITE DEVELOPMENT LLC, a key contractor specializing in commercial and institutional construction. Her procurement patterns reflect a preference for established, experienced vendors with proven capacity in federal facility projects, fostering long-term partnerships built on performance reliability and regulatory compliance. While she engages a range of qualified contractors, her portfolio is dominated by a core group of high-performing firms with demonstrated expertise in federal construction environments. Her contracting approach prioritizes broad market access, with 70.6% of her awards issued under open, non-set-aside solicitations and 29.4% designated as Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5. This balanced strategy reflects a commitment to fostering small business participation without compromising competition or mission readiness. She actively leverages the small business ecosystem, ensuring equitable opportunities for qualified firms while maintaining rigorous performance standards. Kimberly’s primary technical focus is on NAICS 236220 (Commercial and Institutional Building Construction), which accounts for 94.1% of her acquisitions, encompassing renovation, structural upgrades, and building system modernization. The remaining 5.9% involves NAICS 541410 (Interior Design Services), underscoring her expertise in integrated design-build and fit-out projects. Her domain knowledge centers on the technical requirements of federal building standards, including accessibility, energy efficiency, and facility lifecycle management.
