Lindsay Gottschall

Lindsay Gottschall serves as a Contract Specialist within the Public Buildings Service’s R3 Acquisition Management Division South (47PD02), where she plays a pivotal role in executing strategic procurements to support the lifecycle management of federal facilities across the Mid-Atlantic region. She manages the full acquisition lifecycle for construction, real estate, and professional services contracts, ensuring compliance with FAR regulations while advancing the agency’s mission to deliver safe, efficient, and modern work environments for federal agencies. Her portfolio primarily includes complex, mission-critical acquisitions in building construction, facility operations, and specialized technical services. Gottschall cultivates collaborative relationships with a diverse pool of contractors, including general contractors, professional service providers, and niche specialty firms. She works closely with vendors who demonstrate technical proficiency in commercial and institutional construction, glazing systems, landscaping, and moving services, fostering partnerships grounded in performance, compliance, and responsiveness. Her procurement approach emphasizes transparency, fair competition, and vendor accountability to ensure high-quality outcomes across federally funded projects. A strong advocate for small business participation, Gottschall consistently prioritizes socioeconomic set-asides, with approximately one-third of her awards designated for Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5 and nearly one-sixth reserved for Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses. Her contracting patterns reflect a deliberate effort to expand opportunities for small, disadvantaged, and veteran-owned firms, aligning with GSA’s broader goals of equitable access and economic inclusion in federal procurement. Her primary technical focus lies in NAICS categories 236220 (Commercial and Institutional Building Construction), 238150 (Glass and Glazing Contractors), 561730 (Landscaping Services), 484210 (Moving Services), and 541990 (Other Professional Services), demonstrating deep expertise in facility infrastructure, maintenance, and support services. She brings specialized knowledge in managing integrated facility solutions that combine construction, operations, and environmental services to sustain federal real property assets.
