Amy Suber

Amy Suber serves as a Contract Specialist within the Contract Administration Services Division (70RCAS) of the Department of Homeland Security’s Office of Procurement Operations, where she plays a pivotal role in executing complex professional and technical service acquisitions aligned with national security objectives. Her responsibilities include managing the full lifecycle of contracts for administrative management consulting and professional organization services, ensuring compliance with federal acquisition regulations, and supporting operational readiness through the procurement of high-integrity systems engineering and research services. She works closely with program offices to define requirements, structure solicitation strategies, and negotiate performance-based contracts that deliver mission-critical capabilities. Amy maintains collaborative relationships with a broad range of federal contractors, primarily engaged in providing strategic management consulting, organizational development, and professional association services. Her contracting patterns reflect a preference for established firms with demonstrated expertise in federal procurement processes, though she actively fosters partnerships with vendors capable of delivering scalable, performance-driven solutions across DHS mission areas. Her working relationships are characterized by a focus on transparency, accountability, and long-term service delivery outcomes. Amy’s procurement portfolio reflects a strong emphasis on open competition, with 100% of her acquisitions conducted without set-asides, indicating a preference for full and open competition under FAR Part 15. While she does not currently prioritize socioeconomic set-asides such as 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB programs, her approach ensures equitable access for all qualified offerors while maintaining rigorous performance standards. Her primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 541611 (Administrative Management and General Management Consulting Services), where she secures expert advisory services to enhance organizational efficiency and policy implementation. She also routinely procures services under NAICS 813920 (Professional Organizations), supporting the engagement of industry associations and technical societies to advance cybersecurity, systems engineering, and physical science research initiatives critical to DHS’s operational mission.
