Mark A King

Mark A. King serves as a Contract Specialist at the GSA/FAS Region 7 Acquisition Center, where he plays a pivotal role in executing mission-critical procurement actions for industrial and institutional supplies essential to federal operational readiness. His responsibilities encompass the full lifecycle of contract actions—from requirements validation and market research to solicitation development, source selection, and contract administration—focused on high-volume, standardized manufactured goods. He supports the agency’s core mission of securing durable, reliable supplies that sustain federal facilities, logistics, and administrative functions through efficient, compliant acquisition pathways. King maintains consistent contracting relationships with key vendors including MACGYVER SOLUTIONS, INC., FEDERAL SUPPLY SERVICES INTERNATIONAL LLC., B.W. WILSON PAPER COMPANY, INCORPORATED, and COMSIS SOLUTIONS LLC. These partnerships reflect a preference for established merchant wholesalers and manufacturers capable of delivering standardized, high-volume industrial and institutional supplies under blanket purchase agreements and indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity (IDIQ) contracts. His working model emphasizes reliability, scalability, and adherence to federal supply standards, fostering long-term vendor collaboration grounded in performance accountability. King’s procurement portfolio reflects a 100% no set-aside orientation, indicating a strategic focus on open competition to ensure maximum value and efficiency in acquiring essential commodities. This approach prioritizes broad market access and competitive pricing over socioeconomic set-asides, aligning with the agency’s emphasis on mission-critical supply continuity rather than socioeconomic targeting. His primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 423490 (Other Professional Equipment and Supplies Merchant Wholesalers) and 326199 (All Other Plastics Product Manufacturing), underscoring expertise in sourcing a wide array of institutional consumables, specialized plastic components, and industrial-grade supplies. He specializes in procuring standardized, high-use items such as facility maintenance tools, packaging materials, and durable non-medical equipment, demonstrating deep familiarity with federal supply catalogs and commercial item determination criteria.
