Anne K Keller

Anne K. Keller serves as a Contract Officer within the Telecommunications Division (HC1013) of the Defense Information Systems Agency, where she manages the acquisition of critical communications infrastructure and network services essential to the Department of Defense’s global operational readiness. Her role centers on executing full lifecycle contracting for secure, high-capacity telecom solutions, including the modernization of legacy systems, deployment of encrypted virtual private networks, and integration of resilient, interoperable communication platforms. She ensures compliance with federal acquisition regulations while aligning procurements with DISA’s strategic imperatives for cybersecurity, network sovereignty, and mission-critical connectivity across military and federal domains. Keller maintains consistent, long-term relationships with key contractors including AT&T Technical Services Company, Inc., Aerospace & Commercial Technologies, LLC, Liberty Communications, Inc., AOC Connect LLC, and Norfolk Fiber, LLC. These partnerships are primarily centered on delivering enterprise-grade telecommunications engineering, network design, fiber optic deployment, and secure managed services. Her procurement approach emphasizes technical proficiency, performance-based outcomes, and vendor accountability, fostering collaborative relationships with vendors capable of supporting complex, mission-sensitive telecom environments under stringent DoD security standards. Keller’s contracting portfolio reflects a strong preference for full and open competition, with 100% of her awards issued under no set-aside categories. This indicates a deliberate focus on sourcing the most technically capable and scalable solutions from the broadest possible market, rather than prioritizing socioeconomic programs. While small business participation is not structurally mandated in her portfolio, she ensures fair and transparent competition consistent with DoD-wide acquisition policy. Her primary procurement focus is on NAICS 541519 (Other Computer Related Services), encompassing advanced telecommunications engineering, network architecture, cybersecurity-integrated telecom systems, and mission-specific IT infrastructure support. She specializes in procuring services that enable secure, scalable, and resilient command and control networks, with deep expertise in fiber-optic transport, encrypted data transmission, and next-generation telecom modernization initiatives.
