Richard Hogue

Richard F. Hogue serves as a Contracting Officer within the PBS R8 Acquisition Management Division of the General Services Administration’s Public Buildings Service, where he leads the procurement of professional and management development training services critical to federal facility operations. His role encompasses the full lifecycle management of contract actions—from requirements validation and market research to solicitation, award, and performance oversight—ensuring alignment with federal acquisition regulations and the agency’s mission to maintain safe, efficient, and modernized federal infrastructure. Hogue primarily handles service-based acquisitions under NAICS 611430, focusing on workforce development, leadership training, and organizational capacity-building programs that enhance the operational readiness of federal personnel managing public buildings and land ports of entry. Hogue maintains consistent contracting relationships with a select group of vendors, including LEA MARIE LLC, SECURITYHUNTER, INC., MCKENZIE CONSTRUCTION & SITE DEVELOPMENT LLC, and HANDYMAN NATION INC., all of whom provide specialized training, safety compliance education, and facility support services. His procurement approach emphasizes performance-based outcomes, clear statement of work definitions, and long-term vendor reliability over transactional engagements. He fosters stable, results-driven partnerships with contractors who demonstrate technical proficiency in adult learning methodologies and federal workplace compliance frameworks. Hogue’s portfolio reflects a 100% non-set-aside contracting pattern, indicating a strategic focus on full and open competition rather than socioeconomic set-asides. While he does not prioritize 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB preferences, his awards remain accessible to all qualified vendors, emphasizing merit-based selection and competitive fairness under FAR Part 15 procedures. His primary technical domain is NAICS 611430, encompassing professional and management development training services tailored to federal facility managers, maintenance staff, and security personnel. He procures curriculum-based instruction in leadership, safety protocols, facility operations, and regulatory compliance, ensuring federal workforces are equipped with the competencies needed to sustain mission-critical infrastructure.
