Bo Li

Bo Li serves as a key procurement lead within the C5I Division 1 Alexandria under the U.S. Coast Guard and Department of Homeland Security, responsible for managing acquisitions that sustain and modernize mission-critical command, control, communications, computers, and intelligence (C5I) systems. Focused on ensuring operational resilience and maritime domain awareness, Bo oversees the acquisition of enterprise software solutions, secure telecommunications infrastructure, and satellite-enabled data systems that support real-time decision-making for Coast Guard operations. Their procurement activities center on maintaining secure, interoperable IT ecosystems and enabling continuous readiness across distributed maritime environments. Bo Li’s contracting patterns reflect a strategic emphasis on software publishers and systems integration firms capable of delivering secure, scalable, and compliant C5I platforms. While no specific contractor relationships are currently identifiable, their procurement portfolio consistently engages vendors with expertise in classified software development, secure cloud architectures, and defense-grade cybersecurity frameworks. Working relationships are characterized by a preference for vendors with proven experience in DoD and DHS compliance standards, including NIST SP 800-53, FedRAMP, and DIACAP. Bo Li maintains a 100% non-set-aside procurement posture, indicating a focus on open competition to ensure access to the broadest possible pool of technical capability. There is no current preference for 8(a), HUBZone, SDVOSB, or other socioeconomic programs, reflecting a mission-driven prioritization of technical readiness over socioeconomic targets. The agency’s exclusive reliance on NAICS 513210 (Software Publishers) underscores Bo Li’s deep specialization in procuring custom and commercial-off-the-shelf software solutions for intelligence processing, data fusion, secure communications, and mission planning systems. Their technical domain expertise lies in secure software development lifecycles, embedded systems integration, and enterprise architecture modernization within high-assurance environments.
