Curtissa Bond

Curtissa Bond serves as a key procurement professional within the Department of Defense, driving the acquisition of mission-critical technology services essential to national defense innovation. Focused on advanced engineering and analytical systems, Bond manages contracts that support the modernization of cyber-secure software platforms, intelligence analytics, and next-generation communications infrastructure. Operating within the agency’s agile acquisition framework, they facilitate the rapid deployment of commercial-off-the-shelf and custom-developed IT solutions aligned with DoD’s strategic priorities in digital modernization and operational resilience. Their work directly enables the integration of cutting-edge capabilities across defense systems through streamlined contracting pathways. Bond maintains long-standing relationships with prime defense contractors including Lockheed Martin Corporation, The Boeing Company, Huntington Ingalls Inc., Electric Boat Corporation, and Humana Government Business Inc. These partnerships reflect a preference for large, established industry leaders with proven track records in delivering complex, high-assurance systems. The contracting approach emphasizes performance-based outcomes, systems integration, and compliance with defense-specific standards such as NIST SP 800-53 and DoD IL5 security requirements. Collaboration is structured around firm-fixed-price and cost-reimbursement contract types, with a focus on delivering scalable, secure, and interoperable solutions. There is no preference for socioeconomic set-asides; all acquisitions are conducted as full and open competition. This reflects a strategic emphasis on accessing the broadest possible pool of technical expertise and capacity, prioritizing mission need over socioeconomic criteria. While small business participation is not formally incentivized in this portfolio, all vendors are evaluated on technical merit, past performance, and compliance with defense acquisition regulations. The primary procurement focus is under NAICS 541519 (Other Computer Related Services), encompassing software development, systems integration, data analytics, cybersecurity services, and cloud-enabled mission support. Bond’s expertise lies in procuring advanced IT services that underpin intelligence processing, secure communications, and automated decision support systems critical to defense operations.
