Zina Thompson

Zina Thompson serves as a Project Manager within the Public Buildings Service’s Northern region (Agency Code: 47PH06), where she oversees the acquisition and lifecycle management of federal facility infrastructure. Her role centers on executing strategic procurements for nonresidential building leasing and related facilities services, ensuring federal spaces meet mission-critical standards for safety, efficiency, and resilience. She manages the full contract lifecycle—from needs assessment and market research to award and performance monitoring—collaborating with internal stakeholders to align procurement actions with GSA’s broader goals of modernizing aging infrastructure and enhancing building sustainability. Her acquisitions primarily support the operational readiness of federal workplaces through long-term real property solutions. Thompson works closely with a diverse array of commercial real estate lessors and facilities management firms that specialize in leasing and maintaining nonresidential federal properties. While no single contractor dominates her portfolio, she consistently engages with experienced property owners and third-party service providers capable of delivering turnkey facility solutions, including HVAC integration, security system upgrades, and energy efficiency retrofits. Her contracting approach emphasizes performance-based outcomes, vendor accountability, and compliance with federal real property standards. Thompson’s procurement activity reflects a strong preference for open competition, with 100% of her acquisitions conducted without set-aside designations. This indicates a focus on maximizing market participation through full and open competition rather than socioeconomic set-asides, though she remains compliant with all applicable small business outreach requirements. Her approach prioritizes value, capability, and facility readiness over socioeconomic categorization, aligning with the agency’s emphasis on mission-driven outcomes. Her primary procurement focus is NAICS 531120—Lessors of Nonresidential Buildings—which encompasses long-term leases for federal office spaces, adaptive reuse of commercial properties, and integrated facility services. She specializes in procuring turnkey real property solutions that include maintenance, utilities, and infrastructure upgrades, demonstrating deep expertise in federal real estate acquisition and facility optimization strategies.
