Brianna Riffle supports critical procurement operations within the C5I Division 2 Kearneysville of the U.S. Coast Guard, contributing to the sustainment and modernization of command, control, communications, computers, intelligence, and information systems essential to maritime domain awareness. While her official title is not publicly listed, her role centers on managing acquisitions for IT infrastructure, communications equipment, and specialized technical services that ensure operational readiness across Coast Guard missions. She handles a diverse portfolio of contract actions, including service-based procurements and technical support contracts, aligned with the agency’s mission to maintain secure, interoperable, and resilient information systems. Her contractor relationships span a broad spectrum of vendors, with a strong emphasis on firms capable of delivering cyber-secure communications solutions, precision navigation systems, and maintenance services for electronic and naval instrumentation. Though specific contractor names are not disclosed, her procurement patterns reflect collaboration with both large systems integrators and niche technical providers experienced in defense-grade IT environments. She fosters long-term partnerships with vendors who demonstrate proven capabilities in securing classified networks and supporting real-time operational data flows. Riffle exhibits a clear preference for small business participation, with over 30% of her acquisitions set aside for total small businesses under FAR 19.5, reflecting a strong commitment to socioeconomic contracting goals. While no specific set-asides like 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB are dominant, her portfolio consistently prioritizes small business eligibility, enabling innovation and capacity building within the defense industrial base. Her primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 541519 (other computer-related services) and 238990 (specialty trade contracting), with significant activity in electronic equipment repair (811210) and communications system manufacturing (334290, 334511).
