His procurement approach emphasizes collaboration with experienced, locally based contractors who demonstrate proven capacity in complex renovation environments. He fosters long-term vendor partnerships grounded in transparency, performance accountability, and adherence to federal construction standards, ensuring timely delivery of mission-critical infrastructure improvements. A strong advocate for small business inclusion, DeLeonardis consistently prioritizes Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5, with approximately 83% of his acquisitions reserved for small businesses. This reflects a deliberate and sustained commitment to socioeconomic contracting goals, ensuring equitable access to federal construction opportunities for small firms without compromising quality or schedule integrity. His pattern of set-asides underscores a strategic alignment with GSA’s broader diversity and inclusion objectives in the built environment sector. His primary technical focus lies in NAICS 236220 (Commercial and Institutional Building Construction), where he procures comprehensive renovation services including HVAC upgrades, electrical system modernization, and accessibility compliance retrofits.
