Mark Konold

Mark Konold serves as a procurement specialist focused exclusively on janitorial and facility support services, ensuring consistent, high-quality custodial operations across federal facilities. Though his official title is not listed, his procurement patterns indicate a dedicated role in managing non-personal services contracts under the Federal Acquisition Regulation, with a clear emphasis on operational continuity and service reliability. He is responsible for soliciting, evaluating, and awarding contracts for cleaning, waste management, disinfection, and related facility maintenance services, aligning acquisitions with agency mission needs while maintaining strict compliance with federal procurement standards. Konold’s contracting activity reflects a standardized approach to vendor engagement, with no identifiable single contractor dominating his portfolio. Instead, he maintains a broad base of service providers, including local and regional janitorial firms, many of which are small businesses capable of delivering scalable, on-site support. His procurement process emphasizes competitive bidding, performance-based specifications, and contract compliance monitoring, fostering transparent and repeatable vendor relationships grounded in service quality rather than exclusivity. His contracting activity shows a 100% preference for non-set-aside awards, indicating a deliberate focus on open competition rather than socioeconomic set-asides such as 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB programs. This suggests a prioritization of cost-efficiency, geographic availability, and service capacity over socioeconomic targeting, though it does not preclude small business participation—many of the firms he engages are naturally small due to the nature of the industry. Konold’s expertise is narrowly and deeply focused on NAICS 561720, Janitorial Services, encompassing everything from routine cleaning and sanitation to specialized environmental hygiene protocols. He procures performance-based services tailored to federal facility standards, often requiring adherence to federal environmental and safety regulations. His technical domain centers on facility operations support, with an acute understanding of service-level agreements, labor compliance, and performance metrics critical to maintaining clean, safe, and compliant federal work environments.
