LeRoy (Roy) W. Rushing

LeRoy W. Rushing serves as a Contract Officer within the PBS R10 Capital Construction IDV Branch of the General Services Administration’s Public Buildings Service, where he manages the acquisition of capital construction and facility modernization projects essential to federal infrastructure resilience. His responsibilities include planning, soliciting, awarding, and administering indefinite-delivery, indefinite-quantity (IDIQ) contracts for tenant improvements, building system upgrades, and infrastructure rehabilitation. Rushing plays a pivotal role in executing the agency’s mission to deliver safe, functional, and historically sensitive federal workspaces through strategic procurement that aligns with federal construction standards and sustainability goals. Rushing cultivates partnerships with a diverse pool of contractors specializing in commercial and institutional construction, specialty trade services, and building equipment installation. While no single contractor dominates his portfolio, he consistently engages with firms possessing proven experience in federal facility upgrades, including those certified under small business programs. His contracting approach emphasizes performance-based requirements, clear scope definition, and rigorous contract administration to ensure compliance with FAR provisions and project deliverables. A strong advocate for small business inclusion, Rushing prioritizes socioeconomic set-asides, with 40% of his acquisitions designated as Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5 and an additional 6.7% reserved for Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses. His procurement patterns reflect a deliberate effort to expand market access for small firms while maintaining competitive rigor and ensuring high-quality outcomes across complex construction projects. His technical focus centers on NAICS 236220 (Commercial and Institutional Building Construction), with significant activity in 611430 (Professional and Management Development Training) for construction management services and 238990 (All Other Specialty Trade Contractors) for specialized renovations. Rushing’s expertise spans integrated facility upgrades, including water and sewer infrastructure and building equipment systems, demonstrating deep familiarity with federal construction lifecycle management and regulatory compliance.
