Deonna Reyes

Deonna Reyes serves as a Contracting Officer within the IBC Acquisition Services Directorate (140D04) of the Department of the Interior, where she manages the acquisition of professional and technical services critical to federal land management and resource stewardship. Her portfolio centers on securing expert support in real estate valuation, aviation logistics, scientific research, and systems design to sustain public trust assets and modernize infrastructure operations. She exercises full contracting authority under the Federal Acquisition Regulation, overseeing the full lifecycle of competitive and non-competitive procurements, including task order management under IDIQ contracts, to ensure mission-critical capabilities are delivered efficiently and in compliance with federal statutes. Reyes maintains consistent working relationships with key contractors including Phoenix Air Group, Inc., Papillon Airways Inc., Mathemtica Inc., Brainerd Helicopters, Inc., and HMC Helicopter Service LLC, reflecting a strong emphasis on specialized aviation, data analytics, and technical consulting services. Her procurement patterns indicate deep collaboration with niche providers possessing domain-specific expertise in airborne operations and systems engineering, often requiring stringent safety, security, and operational compliance. These partnerships are typically sustained through multiple-year task orders and performance-based service contracts designed to meet evolving operational demands. A defining feature of Reyes’s contracting approach is her robust commitment to socioeconomic goals, with 80% of her awards structured as set-asides—equally split between Indian Small Business Economic Enterprise (ISBEE) and Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5. This reflects a deliberate strategy to prioritize tribal and small business participation, aligning with the Department of the Interior’s mission to support Indigenous economic development and community resilience through procurement. Her primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 541511 (Custom Computer Programming Services) and 541512 (Computer Systems Design Services), supplemented by 541990 (Other Professional, Scientific, and Technical Services) and 624190 (Other Individual and Family Services). This indicates a strong demand for software development, geospatial systems, data modeling, and social services support tied to land management programs, demonstrating technical expertise in integrating digital solutions with field-based federal operations.
