Paul Clark

Paul G. Clark serves as a Contract Specialist within the Property Management - Co division of the Department of Justice’s Federal Bureau of Prisons, where he manages the acquisition of behavioral health and reentry support services critical to incarcerated and transitioning populations. His role centers on ensuring timely, compliant procurement of outpatient mental health and substance use treatment programs, as well as associated reentry infrastructure. Clark executes contracts under FAR Part 13 and Part 19, balancing mission-critical service delivery with stringent federal procurement standards, and frequently interfaces with clinical providers, community-based organizations, and technology vendors to fulfill the agency’s strategic goal of expanding access to evidence-based care. While no specific contractor relationships are currently identified in the data, Clark’s procurement activity consistently engages a diverse pool of service providers, including behavioral health clinics, nonprofit social service organizations, and IT vendors supporting case management systems. His working relationships reflect a preference for mission-aligned partners capable of delivering scalable, compliant, and culturally competent care, with an emphasis on vendors experienced in correctional and post-release environments. Clark demonstrates a strong commitment to socioeconomic contracting, with 90.9% of his acquisitions conducted as non-set-aside actions and 9.1% awarded as Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5. Though no 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB preferences are currently evident, his consistent use of small business set-asides signals a deliberate effort to expand opportunities for qualified small firms in the behavioral health sector. His primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 621420 (Outpatient Mental Health and Substance Abuse Centers), reflecting his specialization in clinical service acquisition. He also procures related services under NAICS 511210 (Software Publishers) and 541519 (Other Computer-Related Services), indicating integration of digital tools for treatment tracking and reentry coordination. His technical domain expertise centers on health IT systems, behavioral health programming, and community-based intervention models tailored to correctional populations.
