Mark A Mohler

Mark A. Mohler serves as a Contract Specialist within the General Services Administration’s Federal Acquisition Service, Region 9, where he plays a pivotal role in executing mission-critical procurements that support federal operational efficiency and digital transformation. He manages the full lifecycle of professional, scientific, and technical service contracts, with a primary focus on information technology solutions, including systems design and integrated IT support services. His work directly enables federal agencies to modernize infrastructure, enhance cybersecurity posture, and improve service delivery through strategic sourcing of non-personal services under FAR Part 12 and Part 36 authorities. Mohler maintains collaborative relationships with a diverse pool of vendors, particularly those specializing in computer systems design and emerging technology services. He routinely engages with both large prime contractors and small business subcontractors to ensure competitive, compliant, and innovative solutions are delivered. His procurement approach emphasizes performance-based contracting, clear statement of work development, and rigorous source selection under best-value tradeoff methodologies. A strong advocate for socioeconomic programs, Mohler consistently prioritizes 8(a) competed set-asides, with 25% of his portfolio reserved for small disadvantaged businesses. While the majority of his acquisitions are open to full and open competition, his deliberate use of 8(a) authorities demonstrates a commitment to fostering equitable access to federal contracting opportunities and strengthening the pipeline of capable small business partners. His primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 541519 (Other Computer Related Services) and 541512 (Computer Systems Design Services), where he procures cloud-enabled solutions, software development, data analytics platforms, and IT modernization support. He specializes in acquiring services that support digital transformation initiatives, cybersecurity enhancements, and enterprise system integration across federal missions, ensuring technical compliance and mission alignment through rigorous acquisition planning and risk mitigation strategies.
