David L. Hancock

David L. Hancock serves as a Contract Specialist for Investigations and Operations Support Dallas under U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, where he manages mission-critical procurement activities that sustain law enforcement operational readiness. His role involves the full lifecycle management of contracts supporting digital forensics, secure communications, and intelligence infrastructure, ensuring alignment with DHS national security objectives. Hancock routinely handles complex acquisitions for specialized technology and technical services, coordinating with technical stakeholders to define requirements, evaluate vendor proposals, and ensure compliance with FAR and agency-specific procurement policies. He maintains established relationships with key contractors including Cellebrite Inc., Thomson Reuters Special Services LLC, and Ensurity Mobile Corp., partnering with vendors that deliver advanced digital evidence extraction, investigative analytics, and mobile device forensics solutions. His contracting patterns reflect a preference for established industry providers with proven capabilities in law enforcement technology, often awarding contracts through competitive sealed bidding and simplified acquisition procedures to meet urgent operational needs. Hancock’s set-aside preferences are heavily skewed toward unrestricted competitions, with 83.3% of awards issued without socioeconomic set-asides, while 16.7% are structured as Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5. This reflects a balanced approach—prioritizing capability and timeliness while still providing opportunities for qualified small businesses when market conditions support it. His procurement focus centers on NAICS codes related to industrial measurement and control devices, including 334519 and 334513, alongside niche categories such as 812930 (parking infrastructure) and 238220 (HVAC contractors), indicating a broad scope of facility and equipment support. While the majority of his portfolio involves specialized instrumentation and forensic technology, his work also encompasses ancillary infrastructure services critical to maintaining secure, mission-ready operational environments.
