Marie A. Fouhey

Marie A. Fouhey serves as a Contracting Officer for the PBS R1 Administration Support Center-BOS under the General Services Administration’s Public Buildings Service, where she manages the acquisition of critical facilities support services essential to maintaining federal infrastructure across Region 1. Her portfolio encompasses a broad range of procurement actions aligned with the agency’s mission to ensure safe, efficient, and sustainable federal workspaces. She routinely handles competitive solicitations for facility operations, maintenance, and modernization contracts, applying FAR Part 19 socioeconomic programs and integrating performance-based contracting methodologies to drive operational excellence and accountability. Fouhey cultivates strategic relationships with a diverse pool of vendors specializing in facilities management, electrical systems, and environmental services. While no single contractor dominates her award profile, she consistently engages both large-capacity service providers and small business subcontractors to deliver integrated solutions across federal properties. Her contracting approach emphasizes performance metrics, lifecycle cost analysis, and contractor accountability, fostering long-term partnerships grounded in compliance and quality delivery. A strong advocate for small business participation, Fouhey prioritizes Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5, which account for nearly 39% of her awards, while also incorporating HUBZone set-asides at 4.3%. Her contracting patterns reflect a deliberate effort to expand economic opportunity for disadvantaged businesses, aligning with federal mandates to promote equitable access to government contracts and enhance regional economic resilience through targeted socioeconomic preferences. Her primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 561210 (Facilities Support Services), followed by electrical contracting (238210), materials recovery (562920), office administrative services (561110), and landscaping (561730). This technical specialization underscores her expertise in managing complex, multi-disciplinary service contracts that require coordination across building systems, environmental compliance, and operational continuity—ensuring federal facilities remain functional, sustainable, and responsive to agency needs.
