Shirley A Anderson

Shirley A. Anderson serves as a Contract Specialist with the 693C73 Eastern Federal Lands Division of the Federal Highway Administration, where she manages the full lifecycle of procurement actions for critical transportation infrastructure projects on federally managed lands. Her responsibilities include developing solicitation documents, conducting market research, evaluating proposals, and administering contracts for highway, bridge, and roadway construction within national forests and public rights-of-way. She plays a pivotal role in ensuring compliance with federal acquisition regulations while advancing the agency’s mission of safe, resilient, and environmentally responsible transportation systems. Her acquisitions are exclusively focused on construction services under the NAICS 237310 category, requiring deep technical understanding of civil engineering standards and federal land-use constraints. Anderson maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of experienced contractors, including ESTES BROS. CONST. INC., BLUEGRASS CONTRACTING CORP, BRYANT'S LAND AND DEVELOPMENT INDUSTRIES, INC., ECLIPSE COMPANIES, LLC, and ASPEN CONSTRUCTION COMPANY. These partnerships reflect a preference for firms with proven expertise in federal land-based construction, environmental mitigation, and right-of-way management. Her contracting patterns demonstrate reliance on established vendors with demonstrated performance on complex, multi-year projects requiring coordination with federal, state, and tribal stakeholders. While the majority of her acquisitions are conducted without set-asides (76.9%), Anderson actively supports small business participation through Total Small Business Set-Asides (15.4%) and HUBZone Set-Asides (7.7%). Her approach aligns with federal socioeconomic goals, ensuring opportunities for qualified small businesses while maintaining rigorous performance standards on mission-critical infrastructure. Her technical expertise is narrowly focused on NAICS 237310—Highway, Street, and Bridge Construction—where she procures services involving earthwork, paving, drainage, retaining structures, and bridge rehabilitation. She possesses specialized knowledge of federal construction standards, environmental compliance, and project delivery methods tailored to sensitive public land environments.
