Virgil A Shuler

Virgil A. Shuler serves as a Procurement Assistant within the Public Buildings Service’s R4 (AMD) Acquisition Management Division, supporting the acquisition of construction and facility support services for federal infrastructure projects. In this role, he provides critical administrative and operational support to contract specialists, assisting with solicitation development, vendor outreach, contract documentation, and compliance monitoring. His work directly enables the division’s mission to deliver secure, sustainable, and mission-critical federal buildings—including courthouses and office complexes—through efficient and transparent procurement practices. He routinely handles acquisitions under the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) for construction, site development, and facility maintenance services, ensuring alignment with federal standards and agency priorities. Shuler maintains consistent working relationships with McKenzie Construction & Site Development LLC, a key contractor engaged in site preparation, civil infrastructure, and facility-related construction activities. His collaboration with this vendor reflects a pattern of sustained, performance-based partnerships rooted in reliability and adherence to federal construction specifications. He supports contract administration processes that emphasize quality control, schedule compliance, and contractor accountability, fostering long-term vendor engagement within the federal construction ecosystem. A defining feature of Shuler’s procurement profile is his full commitment to small business set-asides, with 100% of his supported acquisitions designated under FAR 19.5 as Total Small Business Set-Asides. This reflects a deliberate and consistent emphasis on socioeconomic contracting, ensuring equitable access to federal opportunities for small businesses without preference for other categories such as 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB. His work reinforces the agency’s mandate to promote broad-based small business participation across the construction and facility services sector. While specific NAICS codes are not available, his procurement activities center on construction and site development services essential to federal facility lifecycle management. This includes pre-construction planning, earthwork, utilities installation, and site remediation—technical domains requiring precision, regulatory compliance, and coordination with federal design and engineering teams. His expertise lies in facilitating the transition from project planning to contract execution within the federal built environment.
