Dayhana J. Moore

Dayhana J. Moore serves as a Contract Specialist within the C5I Division 1 Alexandria under the U.S. Coast Guard and Department of Homeland Security, where she plays a pivotal role in executing mission-critical acquisitions to sustain and modernize secure command, control, communications, computers, and intelligence (C5I) systems. She manages the full lifecycle of procurement actions for enterprise IT infrastructure, satellite communications, and mission-critical software solutions, ensuring alignment with DHS cybersecurity standards and operational readiness requirements. Her acquisitions directly support maritime domain awareness and real-time decision-making capabilities across federal maritime operations. Moore collaborates with a diverse range of federal contractors specializing in systems integration, cybersecurity, and geospatial analytics. While no single contractor dominates her portfolio, she routinely engages with firms possessing DoD IL5 or FedRAMP authorization to ensure compliance with stringent information assurance protocols. Her contracting approach emphasizes performance-based outcomes, rigorous technical evaluations, and adherence to FAR and DFARS requirements, fostering transparent and accountable vendor relationships grounded in technical excellence and mission alignment. Moore’s procurement strategy reflects a strong preference for full and open competition, with 100% of her acquisitions conducted without set-asides. This approach underscores her focus on selecting the most technically capable and cost-effective solutions, regardless of socioeconomic status, while still ensuring compliance with all applicable small business participation goals through subcontracting opportunities and mentor-protégé programs when appropriate. Her primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 541370 (Surveying and Mapping Services) and 541512 (Computer Systems Design Services), reflecting deep expertise in geospatial data collection, analysis, and the design of integrated IT architectures for C5I environments. She routinely procures advanced mapping systems, real-time data fusion platforms, and secure network infrastructure solutions that enable interoperability across Coast Guard and DHS operational domains.
