Steven S Tompkins

Steven S. Tompkins serves as a Contract Specialist at the General Services Administration’s Public Buildings Service, R2 Upstate NY Service Center, where he plays a pivotal role in executing mission-critical facility modernization initiatives across Upstate New York. He manages the full lifecycle of procurement actions for capital improvement projects, including construction, renovation, and institutional furniture procurement, ensuring compliance with federal acquisition regulations and agency strategic priorities. His work directly supports the agency’s mission to maintain safe, efficient, and compliant federal workspaces through timely and transparent contracting processes. Tompkins collaborates with a diverse ecosystem of contractors, primarily specializing in institutional furniture manufacturing and civil infrastructure services. While specific vendor names are not disclosed, his contracting patterns reflect consistent engagement with small businesses and specialized firms capable of delivering high-quality, code-compliant furnishings and facility upgrades. His approach emphasizes collaborative vendor partnerships grounded in performance accountability and regulatory adherence, fostering reliable delivery of mission-critical assets. A strong advocate for socioeconomic contracting, Tompkins consistently prioritizes small business set-asides, with over two-thirds of his acquisitions designated for total small business participation and nearly one-third reserved specifically for service-disabled veteran-owned small businesses (SDVOSBs). This reflects a deliberate, sustained commitment to expanding economic opportunity and ensuring equitable access to federal contracting opportunities under FAR Part 19. His primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 337127 (Institutional Furniture Manufacturing), where he procures custom-built, durable furnishings for federal offices and public service facilities, and NAICS 237310 (Highway, Street, and Bridge Construction), supporting infrastructure upgrades essential to facility accessibility and safety. Tompkins brings technical expertise in facility support systems and construction compliance, ensuring all acquisitions align with GSA standards and federal workplace requirements.
