Molly Lewis

Molly Lewis serves as the primary Point of Contact for the PBS R1 Acquisition Management Division within the General Services Administration’s Public Buildings Service, playing a critical role in advancing the agency’s mission to deliver secure, resilient federal infrastructure. She facilitates end-to-end procurement processes for construction and facility support services, with a strategic focus on land ports of entry, naval installations, and other high-priority federal facilities. Her work ensures compliance with federal acquisition regulations while coordinating technical requirements, contract administration, and stakeholder alignment across design, construction, and maintenance phases. She routinely handles complex construction-manager-at-risk and design-build acquisitions under FAR Part 36, emphasizing performance-based outcomes and lifecycle cost efficiency. Lewis maintains consistent working relationships with key contractors including PIKE DEW JV GP and J & J CONTRACTORS, INC., both of which are frequently engaged for integrated construction and specialty trade services. Her procurement approach favors established contractors with proven experience in federal facility modernization, particularly those capable of managing multi-trade coordination, security-compliant construction, and rapid deployment under tight operational constraints. She fosters collaborative, performance-driven partnerships grounded in transparency and accountability, ensuring contractors meet stringent quality and schedule benchmarks. Her contracting portfolio reflects a balanced approach to socioeconomic objectives, with 40% of awards designated as total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5, while the remaining 60% are open competition. This pattern signals a deliberate commitment to expanding opportunities for small businesses in construction and specialty trades, without compromising mission-critical delivery timelines or technical standards. The division’s acquisitions are overwhelmingly concentrated in NAICS 236220 (Commercial and Institutional Building Construction), with additional emphasis on NAICS 238990 (All Other Specialty Trade Contractors) and NAICS 541310 (Architectural Services). Lewis specializes in procuring comprehensive building construction, structural renovations, MEP systems integration, and design-phase support services essential to modernizing federal infrastructure. Her domain expertise lies in managing complex, multi-disciplinary projects requiring strict adherence to GSA design standards and federal security protocols.
