Andrea King

Andrea King serves as a key procurement professional within the Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA), supporting the acquisition of mission-critical information technology and communications systems essential to Department of Defense C4I operations. She manages a diverse portfolio of contracts focused on securing and modernizing the DoD’s digital infrastructure, with emphasis on cybersecurity, cloud-enabled services, and interoperable command and control platforms. Her role involves end-to-end acquisition execution—from requirements validation and market research to contract award and performance oversight—ensuring alignment with DISA’s strategic goals of resilience, scalability, and mission assurance in contested environments. King maintains a primary working relationship with EXPRESSION NETWORKS LLC, a trusted vendor delivering specialized IT services that support DISA’s operational technology needs. Her contracting patterns reflect consistent engagement with a narrow set of established contractors, indicating a preference for proven performers with demonstrated expertise in complex, high-assurance environments. These partnerships are characterized by repeat engagements and deep technical alignment, suggesting a reliance on vendors with prior experience in defense-grade systems integration and secure communications. King’s procurement activity shows no use of socioeconomic set-asides, with 100% of awards issued under full and open competition. This reflects a mission-driven prioritization of technical capability and operational readiness over socioeconomic preferences, consistent with DISA’s mandate to rapidly field secure, interoperable capabilities without delay. Her primary NAICS focus areas include Other Computer Related Services, Custom Computer Programming Services, and Engineering Services, underscoring her specialization in bespoke software development, systems integration, and technical consulting for defense IT modernization. She frequently procures services related to cloud migration, network sustainment, and secure application development, demonstrating deep expertise in the technical domains supporting DoD’s digital transformation and cyber resilience initiatives.
