Sue Saucier

Sue Saucier serves as a Contract Specialist within the Public Buildings Service’s R10 Construction Acquisitions Branch under the General Services Administration, where she plays a pivotal role in executing complex federal construction and facilities support acquisitions across Alaska and the Pacific Northwest. Responsible for managing the full lifecycle of procurement actions—from solicitation development to contract award and administration—Sue ensures compliance with FAR and agency-specific guidelines while advancing the branch’s mission to deliver secure, resilient, and energy-efficient federal infrastructure. Her portfolio primarily encompasses design-build, construction, and integrated facilities services, requiring deep technical coordination with architects, engineers, and construction managers to meet mission-critical operational standards. Sue collaborates with a diverse range of contractors, including large general contractors with federal construction experience, as well as specialized firms in facilities operations, energy systems, and real estate services. Her working relationships emphasize performance-based outcomes, integrated project delivery, and contractor accountability under fixed-price and cost-reimbursement mechanisms. She fosters collaborative partnerships with firms possessing proven expertise in harsh climate construction, seismic retrofitting, and sustainable building practices critical to the region’s unique environmental demands. Sue demonstrates a strong commitment to socioeconomic contracting, with the majority of her acquisitions conducted under open competition (75%), while actively promoting small business participation through Total Small Business Set-Asides (16.7%), HUBZone set-asides (5.6%), and 8(a) competed awards (2.8%). She strategically leverages these authorities to expand vendor diversity and ensure equitable access to federal opportunities for disadvantaged businesses. Her primary procurement focus centers on NAICS 561210 (Facilities Support Services) and 236220 (Commercial and Institutional Building Construction), with additional activity in hotels, real estate appraisal, and professional technical services. This reflects her expertise in procuring integrated building systems, maintenance support, and mission-critical facility modernization services tailored to federal operational needs.
