Patricia Petersky

Patricia Petersky serves as a Contracting Officer within the DSC Contracting Services Division of the National Park Service, where she manages the full lifecycle of procurement actions critical to maintaining and modernizing the physical infrastructure of America’s national parks. Her responsibilities include soliciting, awarding, and administering contracts for services supporting historic preservation, utility system upgrades, and visitor facility enhancements across ecologically sensitive and remote sites. She specializes in complex, mission-critical acquisitions that require technical precision, environmental compliance, and coordination with federal, state, and tribal stakeholders. Her portfolio centers on support services essential to sustaining the operational integrity of protected lands. Petersky maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of experienced contractors, including HDR Engineering Inc., Johnson, Mirmiran & Thompson, Inc., McKenzie Construction & Site Development LLC, BookCliff Partners, LLC, and Aleut Construction LLC. These partnerships reflect a preference for firms with proven expertise in civil infrastructure, environmental engineering, and site development within constrained and sensitive environments. Her contracting approach emphasizes performance-based outcomes, rigorous contract administration, and long-term vendor collaboration to ensure resilience and compliance with National Park Service standards. Petersky’s procurement activity is entirely non-set-aside, with 100% of her awards issued under full and open competition. This reflects a strategic focus on selecting the most technically qualified and capable vendors regardless of socioeconomic designation, prioritizing mission readiness and specialized expertise over socioeconomic preferences. While she does not utilize 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB set-asides, her contracting process remains fully compliant with all federal acquisition regulations and emphasizes transparency and fair competition. Her primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 561990 (All Other Support Services), 562119 (Other Waste Collection), 561499 (All Other Business Support Services), and 561110 (Office Administrative Services). She routinely procures environmental monitoring, waste management, facility maintenance, and administrative support services tailored to the unique operational demands of national park infrastructure, demonstrating deep expertise in mission-aligned support services for federal land management.
