Laurence A. Clunie

Laurence A. Clunie serves as a procurement specialist focused on technical and educational services, overseeing acquisitions aligned with workforce development and information technology needs. Though specific agency details are not disclosed, his contracting activity centers on securing specialized training solutions and computer-related services to support federal operational requirements. He manages a portfolio of competitive procurements under FAR Part 12 and Part 15, typically handling solicitation, evaluation, and award processes for non-commercial and commercial items, with a strong emphasis on small business participation and socioeconomic compliance. Clunie maintains a procurement pattern that prioritizes small business engagement over large prime contractors, with no dominant vendor relationships evident in the data. His contracting approach reflects a deliberate preference for diverse small business sources, particularly those certified under the Small Business Administration’s programs. He fosters collaborative relationships with a broad base of vendors, encouraging competition and ensuring equitable access to federal opportunities without reliance on a concentrated group of prime contractors. His set-aside preferences reveal a pronounced commitment to small business inclusion, with over 45% of awards designated as Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5, and nearly 3% reserved for Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses. This pattern underscores a strategic alignment with federal socioeconomic goals, demonstrating consistent use of set-aside authorities to promote equitable economic opportunity and enhance contractor diversity across the procurement lifecycle. Clunie’s primary industry focus is in the education and technical training sector, with 88.2% of his acquisitions classified under NAICS 611519 (Other Technical and Trade Schools), indicating a strong emphasis on non-degree vocational and workforce training programs. Additional activity in computer services—such as custom programming, systems design, and related IT support—reflects a complementary need for digital infrastructure and technical capacity building. His expertise lies in procuring educational services that align with federal workforce modernization goals, particularly in technology-enabled learning environments and applied skill development.
