He engages with both large-capacity service providers and small, niche contractors capable of delivering specialized technical support. His procurement approach emphasizes open competition and performance-based contracting, fostering long-term vendor partnerships grounded in quality, reliability, and regulatory adherence. Clevenger’s contracting patterns reflect a clear preference for full and open competition, with 100% of his awards issued without set-aside designations.

His approach prioritizes value and capability over socioeconomic categorization, consistent with agency-wide directives favoring open competition. His primary procurement focus lies in three NAICS categories: 811310 for commercial and industrial machinery repair and maintenance, 532490 for equipment rental and leasing, and 561730 for landscaping services. He possesses deep expertise in evaluating technical specifications for heavy equipment servicing, lease terms for industrial machinery, and performance standards for grounds maintenance contracts. This specialized knowledge enables him to craft precise statements of work and ensure contractor compliance with operational and safety requirements.
