Sandra Berry

Sandra A. Berry serves as a Contract Specialist within the PBS R11 Special Programs Division White House Branch under the General Services Administration’s Public Buildings Service. In this role, she manages the full lifecycle of procurement actions for critical facility maintenance and industrial equipment services supporting high-profile federal installations in the National Capital Region. Her responsibilities include developing solicitation documents, conducting market research, evaluating proposals, and administering contracts to ensure compliance with federal acquisition regulations. She specializes in complex, mission-critical acquisitions that sustain the operational integrity and safety of government infrastructure, with a focus on non-automotive industrial maintenance and repair services. Sandra collaborates with a diverse pool of qualified vendors, primarily servicing commercial and industrial machinery, HVAC systems, electrical infrastructure, and facility support equipment. While no single contractor dominates her portfolio, she cultivates long-term partnerships with firms possessing specialized technical certifications and proven track records in federal facility maintenance. Her approach emphasizes vendor reliability, performance history, and adherence to federal safety and environmental standards, fostering a procurement environment grounded in accountability and technical competence. Sandra consistently prioritizes small business participation, with approximately one-third of her acquisitions structured as Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5. She actively leverages socioeconomic programs to expand opportunities for small businesses capable of delivering specialized industrial maintenance services, reflecting a strong commitment to equitable contracting practices. While the majority of her awards are open to all competitors, her strategic use of set-asides ensures robust small business engagement without compromising mission readiness. Her procurement focus is exclusively centered on NAICS 811310—Commercial and Industrial Machinery and Equipment (except Automotive and Electronic) Repair and Maintenance. This specialization requires deep technical understanding of facility systems including boilers, chillers, elevators, and industrial automation controls. Sandra’s expertise lies in sourcing contractors with certified technicians and proven capabilities in maintaining legacy and modernized federal building infrastructure, ensuring seamless operations across sensitive government facilities.
