Reinaldo Mare

Reinaldo Mare serves as a Contracting Specialist responsible for managing the full lifecycle of federal acquisitions, ensuring compliance with FAR regulations and promoting efficient, transparent procurement practices. He specializes in complex construction and environmental remediation contracts, overseeing solicitation development, source selection, contract award, and performance monitoring. His role is central to advancing agency mission objectives through strategic sourcing, with a strong emphasis on small business engagement and socioeconomic compliance. Mare routinely handles competitive procurements under sealed bid and negotiated procedures, with a focus on achieving value, accountability, and mission readiness. Mare cultivates collaborative relationships with a diverse base of specialty trade contractors and remediation service providers, prioritizing firms with proven technical expertise in electrical systems, commercial construction, and environmental cleanup. While no single contractor dominates his portfolio, he consistently engages with small and mid-sized businesses capable of delivering high-quality, code-compliant services across multiple geographic regions. His working relationships are characterized by proactive communication, clear performance expectations, and a commitment to fair and open competition under established procurement frameworks. A defining feature of Mare’s contracting approach is his strong preference for small business set-asides, with 83.3% of his acquisitions designated as Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5. He also actively promotes Women-Owned Small Businesses and Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses, reflecting a deliberate strategy to expand economic opportunity and enhance contractor diversity. His consistent use of socioeconomic authorities demonstrates a deep institutional commitment to the federal government’s small business goals and equitable contracting outcomes. Mare’s procurement focus centers on NAICS codes related to specialty construction and environmental services, particularly Electrical Contractors (238210), Remediation Services (562910), and Commercial/Institutional Building Construction (236220). He routinely procures services involving wiring installation, hazardous material abatement, structural upgrades, and specialized trade contracting for public infrastructure. His technical expertise lies in managing construction-related procurements requiring adherence to safety codes, environmental regulations, and performance-based specifications.
