Tom L Carriere

Tom L. Carriere serves as a Facilities Contract Specialist, responsible for managing the acquisition of facilities-related services and infrastructure support across federal operations. In this role, he ensures compliance with federal procurement regulations while aligning contract outcomes with operational needs, particularly in postal and architectural domains. He handles a range of procurement actions—from task orders and indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity (IDIQ) contracts to performance-based service agreements—focusing on mission-critical facility maintenance, construction oversight, and operational support services. His work directly supports the efficient delivery of government services by securing reliable, high-quality contractors who meet stringent performance and compliance standards. Carriere maintains a broad network of vendors specializing in facility management, engineering, and postal infrastructure services. While no single contractor dominates his portfolio, he consistently engages with firms possessing demonstrated expertise in federal facility operations, including those with experience in General Services Administration (GSA) schedules and federal construction standards. His contracting approach emphasizes competitive bidding, clear performance metrics, and contractor accountability, fostering long-term partnerships grounded in transparency and regulatory adherence. Carriere’s procurement patterns reflect a strong preference for open competition, with 100% of his awards issued under non-set-aside conditions. This indicates a focus on full and open competition rather than socioeconomic set-asides such as 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB programs. While small business participation is not formally prioritized in his current portfolio, his adherence to FAR Part 19 guidelines ensures all eligible vendors have equitable access to opportunities. His primary NAICS focus lies in 491110 (Postal Service), where he procures mail handling systems, facility operations, and logistics support for postal infrastructure, and 541310 (Architectural Services), where he manages design, renovation, and compliance-related services for federal buildings. His technical expertise spans facility lifecycle management, construction specifications, and performance-based service contracting, making him a key liaison between operational requirements and infrastructure delivery.
