Patricia N. Dalinis

Patricia N. Dalinis serves as a Contract Specialist within the Public Buildings Service’s R5 Acquisition Management Division, where she plays a pivotal role in managing the acquisition of construction, renovation, and facility support services for federal buildings nationwide. Her responsibilities include developing solicitation documents, conducting market research, evaluating proposals, and administering contracts under the Federal Acquisition Regulation. She supports the agency’s mission to modernize and maintain the federal government’s physical infrastructure, with a focus on interior renovations, building systems upgrades, and mission-critical facility operations. Her portfolio primarily encompasses commercial and institutional construction projects, requiring precise application of performance-based contracting and design-build delivery methods. Patricia maintains consistent working relationships with MCKENZIE CONSTRUCTION & SITE DEVELOPMENT LLC, a key contractor delivering complex renovation and site development services across federal facilities. Her procurement approach emphasizes collaboration with experienced general contractors and specialized trade firms, fostering long-term partnerships built on reliability, compliance, and performance accountability. She routinely engages vendors with proven track records in federal construction environments, ensuring adherence to GSA standards and sustainability requirements. Her contracting patterns reflect a balanced commitment to socioeconomic goals, with approximately half of her procurements structured as Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5, while the remainder remain open to all competitors. This pattern demonstrates a deliberate effort to expand opportunities for small businesses without compromising competition or mission needs. She actively promotes participation from small, disadvantaged, and service-disabled veteran-owned firms within the construction ecosystem. Patricia’s primary technical focus lies in NAICS 236220 (Commercial and Institutional Building Construction), supplemented by expertise in related specialties including painting and wall covering (238320), other building finishing (238390), and interior design services (541410). She regularly procures turnkey renovation packages, building envelope upgrades, and integrated facility systems, demonstrating deep familiarity with federal construction codes, ADA compliance, and energy efficiency mandates.
