Alexis Corley

Alexis Corley serves as the primary contracting lead within the It Contracting Division - PL83 of the Defense Information Systems Agency, where they oversee the acquisition of mission-critical software solutions and IT services essential to sustaining and modernizing DoD information systems. Responsible for end-to-end procurement execution, Corley manages complex contracts for secure, interoperable computing environments, with a focus on cybersecurity enhancements, legacy system modernization, and scalable software platforms that support defense-wide communications. Their work directly enables the agency’s mission to ensure resilient, classified, and operationally ready IT infrastructure across the Department of Defense. Corley collaborates with a broad spectrum of IT vendors specializing in enterprise software development, cloud-native applications, and defense-grade cybersecurity tools. While no single contractor dominates the portfolio, the procurement pattern reflects consistent engagement with firms possessing DoD CMMC compliance, NIST 800-53 adherence, and software development lifecycle expertise aligned with Agile and DevSecOps methodologies. Relationships are characterized by technical rigor, performance-based contracting, and a preference for vendors with proven experience in DoD environments. Corley’s acquisition strategy reflects a strong preference for open competition, with 100% of procurements designated as non-set-aside. This indicates a focus on technical merit and capability over socioeconomic preferences, prioritizing mission readiness and system interoperability above targeted small business set-asides. While small business participation is not formally incentivized in this portfolio, all vendors must meet stringent federal cybersecurity and performance standards. The division’s sole NAICS focus is 513210 (Software Publishers), underscoring Corley’s deep specialization in procuring custom and commercial off-the-shelf software, including secure operating systems, mission-specific applications, and embedded software for command and control systems. Their expertise lies in acquiring software with integrated cybersecurity controls, zero-trust architecture support, and interoperability with Joint All-Domain Command and Control (JADC2) frameworks.
