Laura Funk

Laura Funk supports the Pbs R8 Acquisition Management Division within the General Services Administration’s Public Buildings Service, managing the acquisition of facility infrastructure and operational services for federal buildings and land ports of entry. She plays a critical role in executing integrated design-build contracts and facility modernization initiatives, ensuring federal properties meet safety, functionality, and efficiency standards. Her procurement portfolio primarily encompasses construction and specialty trade services, with a strong emphasis on comprehensive building systems, including electrical, plumbing, HVAC, and remediation work. She operates within a mission-driven framework that prioritizes long-term asset sustainability and mission-critical infrastructure resilience. Funk maintains consistent working relationships with a select group of contractors, including LEA MARIE LLC, SECURITYHUNTER, INC., MCKENZIE CONSTRUCTION & SITE DEVELOPMENT LLC, and HANDYMAN NATION INC. These partnerships reflect a preference for experienced, regionally based firms capable of delivering complex construction and maintenance services across diverse federal sites. Her contracting approach emphasizes reliability, performance history, and local capacity, fostering long-term vendor engagement through repeat awards and task order execution under multiple-award contracts. She is deeply committed to small business participation, with 100% of her acquisitions structured as total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5. This reflects a deliberate strategy to maximize economic opportunity for small businesses, particularly those certified under socioeconomic programs, ensuring equitable access to federal construction and facility support contracts. Her contracting patterns consistently prioritize small business resilience and workforce development within the built environment sector. Her technical expertise centers on NAICS 236220 (Commercial and Institutional Building Construction), with significant activity in electrical (238210), plumbing and HVAC (238220), and specialty trade contracting (238990). She routinely procures turnkey construction, renovation, and systems integration services for federal facilities, demonstrating deep familiarity with building code compliance, facility lifecycle management, and performance-based acquisition methodologies.
