Amber Gray

Amber Gray serves as a key procurement professional within Acquisitions - Aqm Momentum (19AQMM), a critical component of the U.S. Department of State responsible for securing mission-critical infrastructure and technical services to support global diplomatic operations. She manages the acquisition lifecycle for high-priority contracts involving security systems, IT modernization, and facility engineering services essential to the safety and operational continuity of U.S. embassies and consulates abroad. Her work ensures timely delivery of solutions that align with diplomatic security standards and federal acquisition regulations, with a focus on complex, mission-driven procurements requiring specialized technical expertise and international compliance. Gray maintains strategic relationships with a diverse set of contractors, including PBG Consulting, CGI Federal, AMD International Technologies, Pütz Security AG, and KADIAK LLC_DGI-ATI II LLC, reflecting a blend of domestic and international vendor engagement. Her contracting patterns favor established firms with proven capabilities in security engineering, systems integration, and technical consulting, often requiring global service delivery and compliance with State Department security protocols. She consistently collaborates with vendors capable of supporting multi-year, multi-location deployments under firm-fixed-price and cost-reimbursement contract types. Her procurement portfolio reflects a balanced approach to socioeconomic goals, with nearly half of all awards designated for small business set-asides under FAR 19.5 and an additional 6.7 percent reserved for women-owned small businesses. While no set-aside remains equally prevalent, her consistent use of small business set-asides demonstrates a deliberate commitment to expanding opportunities for qualified small and mid-sized firms in the national security and diplomatic support sectors. Gray’s primary technical focus lies in NAICS 541330 (Engineering Services), 541611 and 541690 (Management and Technical Consulting), and 519290 (Information Services), indicating deep expertise in procuring security system design, facility infrastructure upgrades, cybersecurity consulting, and digital platform modernization. She routinely sources integrated solutions that combine physical security, IT infrastructure, and operational support services to meet the evolving needs of U.S. diplomatic missions worldwide.
