Mr. Min C. Kim

Min C. Kim serves as a Contract Specialist within the Public Buildings Service’s PBS R10 Construction Acquisitions Branch, part of the General Services Administration. In this role, Kim manages the full lifecycle of federal construction and facilities-related acquisitions, ensuring compliance with FAR regulations while advancing the agency’s mission to deliver secure, resilient, and energy-efficient federal infrastructure across Alaska and the Pacific Northwest. Kim specializes in integrated design-build contracts, professional services for building systems, and mission-critical facility modernization projects, balancing technical rigor with strategic procurement planning to support long-term operational continuity. Kim collaborates with a diverse range of contractors, including design-build firms, facilities support service providers, and specialized trades such as HVAC and plumbing contractors. While no single vendor dominates the portfolio, Kim fosters collaborative relationships with firms capable of delivering complex, multi-disciplinary solutions under performance-based requirements. Working closely with project engineers and program managers, Kim ensures contractor alignment with sustainability goals, resilience standards, and federal building codes, promoting accountability and innovation throughout the acquisition process. Kim demonstrates a strong commitment to socioeconomic contracting, with nearly half of all acquisitions set aside for total small businesses under FAR 19.5, and a significant portion reserved for women-owned small businesses. This pattern reflects a deliberate strategy to expand opportunities for underserved vendors while maintaining competitive rigor. No-set-aside awards are reserved for projects requiring unique technical capabilities or national security considerations, ensuring flexibility without compromising small business participation goals. The branch’s procurement focus centers on NAICS 541690 (scientific and technical consulting) and 561210 (facilities support services), with additional emphasis on plumbing, heating, and air-conditioning contractors (238220) and other computer-related services (541519). Kim’s expertise lies in procuring integrated building systems, energy efficiency upgrades, and facility operations support, requiring deep technical understanding of federal building standards and lifecycle asset management.
