Lloyd A Burton

Lloyd A. Burton serves as a Contracting Officer at the Federal Law Enforcement Training Center’s Glynco Procurement Office, where he manages the acquisition of mission-critical infrastructure, technology, and support services essential to federal law enforcement training and operational readiness. His portfolio includes procurements for training facility modernization, secure communications systems, detection equipment, and specialized real estate services, all aligned with the agency’s mandate to sustain high-fidelity, scalable training environments for federal agents. Burton employs full and open competition and set-aside strategies to ensure compliance with FAR regulations while advancing operational capabilities across multiple federal agencies. He maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of contractors including Diversified Fabricators & Erectors, Inc., Range Cleaners Inc., Builders Supply Inc., Reynolds-Warren Equipment Company, Inc., and Contender Boats Inc., reflecting a focus on specialized fabrication, facility maintenance, equipment supply, and marine-based training assets. These partnerships are characterized by repeat engagements and performance-based contract administration, indicating a preference for vendors with proven expertise in law enforcement-specific environments and a track record of reliability under demanding operational conditions. Burton’s procurement strategy reflects a balanced commitment to small business participation, with approximately half of his awards structured as Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5. While no other socioeconomic set-asides dominate his portfolio, his consistent use of small business set-asides demonstrates a deliberate effort to foster competition and expand opportunities for qualified small firms within the federal training support sector. His primary NAICS focus lies in Medical Laboratories (621511), which underscores a significant investment in forensic and biometric testing infrastructure, alongside niche procurements in fabricated wire products (332618), measuring and controlling devices (334519), satellite telecommunications (517410), and real estate lessors (531190). This technical diversity reveals deep expertise in acquiring specialized equipment and services that enable advanced law enforcement training, surveillance, and forensic analysis capabilities.
