Samar Bairmani

Samar Bairmani serves as a Construction Contracts Specialist, providing expert oversight and execution of federal construction acquisitions within the agency’s capital planning and infrastructure development mission. In this capacity, Bairmani manages the full lifecycle of construction contracts—from solicitation and evaluation to award and contract administration—ensuring compliance with federal regulations, including the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) and the Uniform Federal Accessibility Standards. Their work primarily supports the delivery of commercial and institutional building projects, ensuring that public facilities meet functional, safety, and sustainability requirements. As a secondary procurement role, Bairmani collaborates closely with lead contracting officers and project engineers to align acquisition strategy with agency mission needs. Bairmani works with a broad network of general contractors, specialty subcontractors, and design-build firms experienced in commercial and institutional construction. While no single contractor dominates their portfolio, they consistently engage firms with proven track records in delivering complex building projects under tight schedules and stringent quality controls. Their working relationships are characterized by a focus on performance-based contracting, rigorous pre-award due diligence, and post-award oversight to ensure contractor accountability and project integrity. Bairmani’s procurement approach reflects a strong preference for open competition, with 100% of their acquisitions conducted without set-aside designations. This indicates a commitment to maximizing competition among qualified firms rather than targeting specific socioeconomic categories. While small business participation is not formally prioritized through set-asides, all procurements remain fully compliant with small business goals and encourage voluntary participation through subcontracting opportunities. Their primary technical focus is on NAICS 236220—Commercial and Institutional Building Construction—encompassing new construction, renovations, and major alterations to office buildings, educational facilities, and public service structures. Bairmani possesses deep expertise in construction methodologies, bid evaluation criteria for design-build contracts, and performance metrics tied to schedule adherence, safety compliance, and energy efficiency standards.
