April L. Dunchie

April Dunchie supports the IT Strategy and Modernization unit within the Internal Revenue Service’s Department of the Treasury, advancing the agency’s digital transformation through strategic procurement of mission-critical technology services. She manages acquisitions aligned with enterprise-wide IT modernization, secure data platform development, and cybersecurity enhancement initiatives, ensuring alignment with federal IT governance standards and IRS operational imperatives. Her portfolio primarily encompasses professional services contracts that enable scalable, interoperable, and resilient digital infrastructure, with a strong emphasis on compliance, risk mitigation, and system integration. Dunchie collaborates with a diverse ecosystem of contractors specializing in IT modernization, management consulting, and investigative services. While no single vendor dominates her award profile, she consistently engages with firms offering agile development, systems architecture, and compliance-driven consulting solutions. Her contracting approach favors performance-based outcomes, leveraging task orders and indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity (IDIQ) vehicles to ensure flexibility and responsiveness in rapidly evolving technical environments. Her procurement patterns reflect a robust commitment to socioeconomic goals, with approximately two-thirds of her acquisitions set aside for small businesses under FAR 19.5. This demonstrates a deliberate strategy to broaden participation among small disadvantaged, woman-owned, and other eligible small business concerns, reinforcing Treasury’s mandate for equitable access to federal contracting opportunities. Dunchie’s primary NAICS focus areas—541519 (Other Computer Related Services), 541618 (Other Management Consulting Services), and 561611 (Investigation and Personal Background Check Services)—reveal a technical domain centered on IT modernization, process optimization, and workforce integrity verification. She routinely procures services related to cloud migration, legacy system decommissioning, data governance frameworks, and background screening for personnel with access to sensitive tax systems, reflecting deep expertise in both technical and compliance-driven procurement environments.
