Jacqueline D. Johnson serves as a Contract Specialist within the Telecommunications Division (HC1013) of the Defense Information Systems Agency, where she plays a pivotal role in securing and modernizing the Department of Defense’s global communications infrastructure. She manages complex acquisitions for mission-critical telecommunications systems, including secure network solutions, virtual private networks, and interoperable communication platforms. Her work directly supports DISA’s mandate to sustain resilient, high-capacity connectivity across military and federal operations, with a strong emphasis on transitioning legacy systems to next-generation architectures. Johnson typically handles full lifecycle procurements under FAR and DFARS guidelines, coordinating with technical stakeholders to align contracting strategies with evolving cybersecurity and network modernization requirements. She maintains enduring relationships with key contractors including AT&T Technical Services Company, Inc., Aerospace & Commercial Technologies, LLC, Liberty Communications, Inc., AOC Connect LLC, and Norfolk Fiber, LLC. These partnerships are primarily centered on delivering engineered telecom solutions, fiber optic deployment, and secure data transmission services. Johnson fosters collaborative, performance-based contracting models that emphasize technical compliance, lifecycle support, and mission readiness, often leveraging indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity (IDIQ) and multiple-award contract vehicles to ensure agile responsiveness to operational needs. Her procurement approach reflects a strong preference for open competition, with 86.7% of awards issued without set-asides. While small business participation is intentional, it is strategically targeted, with equal shares of 6.7% allocated to Total Small Business Set-Asides and 8(a) competed contracts. This demonstrates a balanced commitment to socioeconomic goals without compromising mission-critical performance or market competitiveness. Johnson’s technical focus lies primarily in NAICS 541519 (Other Computer Related Services) and 541511 (Custom Computer Programming Services), reflecting her expertise in procuring software-defined networking, network automation, and mission-specific application development.
