Peter Marples

Peter Marples serves as a key procurement professional within the Public Buildings Service’s R8 Acquisition Management Division, overseeing the acquisition of real estate-related services and nonresidential building leasing for federal infrastructure. His role centers on managing integrated design-build contracts and facility modernization initiatives critical to maintaining the safety, functionality, and operational efficiency of federal buildings and land ports of entry. He routinely handles complex, mission-critical procurements under FAR Part 36 and Part 13, with a focus on performance-based service contracts that align with GSA’s sustainability and resilience goals. Marples maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of contractors including LEA MARIE LLC, SECURITYHUNTER, INC., MCKENZIE CONSTRUCTION & SITE DEVELOPMENT LLC, and HANDYMAN NATION INC., all of which provide specialized construction, site development, and facility maintenance services. His contracting patterns reflect a preference for established, locally rooted vendors with demonstrated capacity in federal facility operations, often leveraging task orders under blanket purchase agreements to streamline delivery of recurring services. His procurement portfolio shows no use of socioeconomic set-asides, with 100% of awards issued as full and open competitions. This reflects a strategic emphasis on competition and capability over socioeconomic classification, prioritizing technical proficiency and past performance in a high-stakes infrastructure environment. Marples specializes in NAICS 531390 (Other Activities Related to Real Estate) and 531120 (Lessors of Nonresidential Buildings), focusing on property management, facility operations support, and real estate services essential to federal building sustainment. His expertise lies in procuring integrated services such as custodial support, security operations, energy management, and building system maintenance, ensuring federal facilities meet operational readiness standards across the national portfolio.
