Brad Miller

Brad Miller supports the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Rural Housing Service through the Strategic Acquisition Division, where he plays a critical role in managing procurements that modernize digital infrastructure for rural housing programs. His work centers on acquiring business support services, software solutions, and technology-enabled systems that enhance applicant management, loan servicing, and underwriting platforms. He ensures acquisitions align with federal procurement regulations and agency priorities to improve operational efficiency, cybersecurity, and accessibility for underserved rural communities. His portfolio is primarily composed of non-construction, IT-enabled services that sustain and upgrade mission-critical systems used across rural housing guarantee programs. While specific contractor names are not publicly available, Miller maintains relationships with a diverse range of vendors offering enterprise-level business support, software development, and technology leasing services. His contracting patterns reflect a preference for flexible, scalable solutions that integrate with legacy federal systems, often requiring compliance with FISMA, NIST, and OMB A-130 standards. He engages both large-capability firms and small businesses to deliver secure, interoperable platforms that support real-time data processing and applicant workflow automation. Miller’s procurement strategy prioritizes open competition, with 88.9% of awards issued under general solicitations and only 11.1% designated as total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5. This reflects a balanced approach that emphasizes capability and compliance over socioeconomic preferences, though he remains committed to small business participation where it aligns with technical requirements and delivery timelines. His primary NAICS focus includes 561499 (All Other Business Support Services), reflecting demand for administrative, technical, and consulting services; 511210 (Software Publishers), indicating heavy investment in custom and commercial-off-the-shelf software for housing administration; and 532420 (Office Machinery and Equipment Rental and Leasing), supporting hardware refresh cycles and secure computing environments. His expertise lies in procuring integrated technology solutions that bridge operational gaps in rural housing delivery systems.
