Terrie A. Latimer

Terrie Latimer serves as a Contracts Negotiator within the Public Buildings Service’s PBS R11 Construction Services Division Center 2 (47PM02), part of the General Services Administration. In this role, she leads the negotiation and administration of complex construction and design-related contracts to support the modernization of federal infrastructure across the National Capital Region. Her work is central to delivering mission-critical facilities through integrated design-build delivery models, ensuring compliance with federal procurement regulations while advancing placemaking and long-term operational efficiency. She routinely handles acquisitions for architectural, engineering, and commercial construction services, with a focus on large-scale public building projects requiring multidisciplinary coordination and performance-based contracting. Latimer cultivates collaborative relationships with a diverse pool of prime contractors specializing in architectural design, institutional construction, and engineering services. While no single vendor dominates her portfolio, she consistently engages firms with proven expertise in federal facility delivery, including those experienced in GSA’s design-build and construction manager-at-risk frameworks. Her contracting approach emphasizes performance metrics, risk mitigation, and contractor accountability, fostering long-term partnerships grounded in transparency and regulatory compliance. Her procurement activity reflects a strong preference for full and open competition, with 100% of awards issued without set-aside designations. This indicates a strategic focus on maximizing competition among qualified large and mid-sized firms rather than targeting specific socioeconomic categories, though she remains compliant with all small business participation requirements as part of broader agency goals. Latimer’s primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 541310 (Architectural Services), which accounts for 68% of her activity, followed by NAICS 236220 (Commercial and Institutional Building Construction). She also oversees engineering services (541330), landscape architecture (541320), and specialized building materials like flat glass (327211). Her technical expertise spans building systems integration, sustainable design standards, and federal facility code compliance, positioning her as a key player in delivering high-performance federal infrastructure.
