Susan J Odom

Susan J. Odom serves as a Contracting Officer within the Public Buildings Service’s R4 (AMD) Acquisition Management Division under the General Services Administration, where she manages the full lifecycle procurement of mission-critical infrastructure services for federal courthouses and office facilities. Her portfolio encompasses construction, facility maintenance, and professional support services aligned with GSA’s mandate to deliver secure, sustainable, and efficiently operated federal buildings. She exercises full contracting authority under FAR Part 15, overseeing complex solicitations, source selection, and contract administration for both large-scale construction and specialized support services, ensuring compliance with federal acquisition regulations and sustainability standards. Ms. Odom maintains consistent working relationships with MCKENZIE CONSTRUCTION & SITE DEVELOPMENT LLC, a key contractor delivering site development and construction services for federal facilities. Her procurement approach emphasizes performance-based contracting and integrated project delivery models, fostering collaborative partnerships with vendors who demonstrate technical proficiency, safety compliance, and a track record in federal construction environments. She prioritizes accountability and timely execution, cultivating long-term vendor relationships grounded in transparency and regulatory adherence. Her contracting patterns reflect a strong commitment to small business participation, with 35.7% of awards designated as Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5. While the majority of her acquisitions are open to full and open competition, she strategically leverages small business set-asides to promote economic opportunity and diversify the contractor base, consistently aligning with GSA’s socioeconomic goals without reliance on 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB-specific programs. Ms. Odom’s primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 561320 (Temporary Help Services) and 541612 (Human Resources Consulting Services), reflecting demand for workforce support in federal facility operations. She also regularly procures commercial and institutional construction (236220), office administrative services (561110), and electrical installation (238210), demonstrating deep expertise in managing multidisciplinary service integrations essential to the maintenance and modernization of federal infrastructure.
