Camille P. Murray

Camille P. Murray serves as a Contract Specialist within the Contract Administration Services Division (70RCAS) of the Department of Homeland Security’s Office of Procurement Operations, where she plays a pivotal role in executing complex acquisitions of professional, scientific, and technical services critical to national security. Her responsibilities encompass the full lifecycle of contract management—from requirements validation and market research to solicitation development, evaluation, and award execution—ensuring compliance with FAR regulations and mission-aligned outcomes. She primarily handles procurements supporting research and development in physical and engineering sciences, cybersecurity infrastructure, and systems engineering capabilities essential to operational readiness and technological integrity. Camille collaborates with a diverse range of vendors specializing in advanced instrumentation, computer systems, and technical services, fostering strategic partnerships with both large-capacity contractors and agile small businesses. While no single contractor dominates her portfolio, her contracting patterns reflect a preference for technically proficient firms capable of delivering high-integrity hardware and software solutions under stringent security and performance standards. Her working relationships are characterized by rigorous compliance oversight and a focus on performance-based contracting principles. Her set-aside preferences reveal a strong emphasis on broad market competition, with 83.3% of acquisitions conducted as unrestricted procurements. However, she consistently allocates 16.7% of opportunities to Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5, demonstrating a deliberate and compliant commitment to small business participation without reliance on specialized socioeconomic programs like 8(a) or HUBZone. Camille’s procurement focus is concentrated in NAICS 334519 (Other Measuring and Controlling Device Manufacturing) and 334511 (Search, Detection, Navigation, and Guidance Systems), reflecting her specialization in sensor technologies, control systems, and precision instrumentation. She also regularly procures computer peripheral equipment and software through NAICS 423430 and 541519, underscoring her technical expertise in integrated systems engineering, cybersecurity tools, and mission-critical software services supporting DHS operational platforms.
