Scot Yeanish

Scot Yeanish serves as a key procurement professional within the Public Buildings Service’s R1 Acquisition Management Division, overseeing the acquisition of critical construction and facility support services for high-priority federal infrastructure. Responsible for managing end-to-end contracting processes, Yeanish specializes in complex construction-manager-at-risk and design-build procurements for land ports of entry, naval installations, and other mission-critical federal facilities. His work directly supports the agency’s mission to deliver secure, resilient, and energy-efficient infrastructure through integrated project delivery methods and performance-based contracting standards. Yeanish maintains consistent working relationships with prime contractors including PIKE DEW JV GP and J & J CONTRACTORS, INC., both of which have demonstrated expertise in delivering large-scale commercial and institutional construction projects. His procurement approach emphasizes collaborative contracting models that integrate early contractor involvement, constructability reviews, and risk-sharing mechanisms. These partnerships reflect a preference for experienced, pre-qualified firms capable of managing multifaceted construction scopes under stringent federal compliance requirements. His contracting portfolio reflects a balanced commitment to socioeconomic goals, with approximately half of his acquisitions structured as total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5, and the other half open to all competitors. This pattern underscores a deliberate strategy to foster small business participation while maintaining competitive rigor and ensuring access to specialized technical capabilities. He consistently prioritizes small business prime contractors in plumbing, heating, and air-conditioning, as well as general construction services. Yeanish’s primary technical focus lies in NAICS 238220 (Plumbing, Heating, and Air-Conditioning Contractors) and NAICS 236220 (Commercial and Institutional Building Construction), reflecting deep expertise in mechanical systems integration, building envelope performance, and facility modernization. He procures comprehensive construction services that include HVAC retrofits, energy-efficient upgrades, and infrastructure resilience enhancements, aligning with federal sustainability and security mandates. His domain knowledge ensures that acquisitions meet rigorous building codes, GSA design standards, and operational readiness requirements.
