Shannon Quick

Shannon Quick serves as a procurement professional within the Public Buildings Service’s R3 Acquisition Management Division South, responsible for managing the acquisition of construction and facility-related services to support federal infrastructure across the Mid-Atlantic region. Leveraging full lifecycle procurement expertise, Quick oversees the solicitation, evaluation, and award of contracts for commercial and institutional building construction, ensuring compliance with federal regulations and alignment with GSA’s mission to deliver safe, efficient, and sustainable work environments for federal agencies. Their work directly supports the modernization and maintenance of federal facilities through strategic sourcing of design-build, renovation, and new construction services. While specific contractor names are not publicly disclosed, Quick maintains consistent engagement with a broad network of qualified construction firms, including general contractors, design-build teams, and specialty trade subcontractors. The procurement approach emphasizes performance-based contracting, competitive bidding, and rigorous contractor vetting to ensure quality, timeliness, and regulatory adherence. Working relationships are characterized by transparency, accountability, and a focus on long-term delivery capacity rather than short-term transactional engagements. Shannon Quick demonstrates an unwavering commitment to small business participation, directing 100% of eligible acquisitions toward total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5. This reflects a deliberate strategy to maximize economic opportunity for small firms, fostering equitable access to federal construction contracts without reliance on other socioeconomic categories such as 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB. The consistent application of full small business set-asides underscores a proactive effort to build capacity within the small business construction community. The primary procurement focus is on NAICS 236220, Commercial and Institutional Building Construction, encompassing new construction, major renovations, and facility upgrades for federal office buildings, courthouses, and administrative complexes. Expertise lies in managing complex, multi-phase construction projects requiring coordination with architects, engineers, and facility managers to meet federal building standards, sustainability goals, and security requirements.
