Tamira D. Conner

Tamira D. Conner serves as a key procurement professional within the Public Buildings Service’s PBS R11 Special Programs FDA 80 Branch, supporting mission-critical infrastructure for high-risk federal scientific and health operations. Responsible for managing complex acquisitions related to facility support, administrative management, and contact center services, she ensures that engineering, maintenance, and operational systems for laboratories, vivariums, and plant environments are procured in full compliance with federal regulatory standards. Her work directly enables the continuity of FDA-regulated research and public health initiatives by securing reliable, compliant services that uphold the integrity of federal facilities. While specific contractor names are not currently available, Conner’s procurement patterns indicate a preference for established service providers with demonstrated expertise in federal facility operations, regulatory compliance, and mission-critical systems support. She engages with vendors capable of delivering integrated facilities management, technical consulting, and operational support services under performance-based contract structures. Her working relationships reflect a focus on vendors with proven experience in federal laboratory environments and a capacity to meet stringent safety and security requirements. Conner’s contracting activity shows a 100% preference for non-set-aside acquisitions, indicating a focus on full and open competition rather than socioeconomic set-asides such as 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB programs. This reflects a mission-driven prioritization of technical capability and operational readiness over socioeconomic targeting, though small businesses are not excluded from participation under open competition. Her primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 561210 (Facilities Support Services), 541611 (Administrative Management Consulting), and 561422 (Contact Centers), underscoring expertise in facility operations, process optimization, and customer service infrastructure. She routinely procures specialized services including environmental systems maintenance, regulatory compliance support, and mission-aligned administrative operations critical to sustaining high-containment research environments.
