Iann T. Washington

Iann T. Washington serves as a key procurement professional within the Contract Administration Services Division of the Department of Homeland Security’s Office of Procurement Operations, where they oversee the acquisition of critical professional, scientific, and technical services essential to national security readiness. Their responsibilities include managing the full lifecycle of contracts for consulting, facilities management, and engineering support services, ensuring compliance with federal acquisition regulations and alignment with DHS’s mission to enhance cybersecurity, systems integrity, and operational capability. Washington’s portfolio primarily focuses on high-integrity service contracts that support research, development, and infrastructure sustainment across federal missions. Their contractor relationships span a diverse base of vendors, including large professional services firms providing management consulting and facilities leasing, as well as small businesses certified under socioeconomic programs. While no single contractor dominates their award profile, Washington consistently engages with firms capable of delivering complex, mission-critical services under performance-based contract structures, fostering long-term partnerships grounded in accountability and technical excellence. Washington demonstrates a strong preference for open competition, with 80% of acquisitions conducted without set-asides, reflecting a focus on broad market access and value-driven outcomes. Nevertheless, they actively support small business participation, allocating 10% of awards to total small business set-asides, 5% to HUBZone firms, and 5% to 8(a) competed contracts, signaling a balanced commitment to socioeconomic goals without compromising mission requirements. The primary NAICS focus areas include Administrative Management and General Management Consulting Services (541611) and Lessors of Nonresidential Buildings (531120), indicating a specialization in strategic advisory services and facility-related support. Additional procurement activity extends to surveying and mapping services, professional organizations, and parking operations—reflecting a diverse operational footprint that supports both mission-critical infrastructure and administrative efficiency across DHS components.
