Jessica L. Isaak

Jessica L. Isaak serves as a Contract Specialist at the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency (NGA), where she plays a pivotal role in executing complex acquisitions that support the agency’s mission of delivering authoritative geospatial intelligence for national security and defense operations. She manages the full lifecycle of contracts for advanced geospatial analytics, imagery processing systems, and digital terrain modeling solutions, ensuring compliance with FAR and DFARS requirements. Her portfolio primarily centers on technical services and software development critical to automated mapping, geospatial data fusion, and real-time intelligence delivery across military and intelligence communities. Isaak maintains consistent working relationships with leading technology providers including ESRI, L3Harris Technologies, Garmin International, Voyager Search, and Dynamic Gravity Systems LLC. These partnerships reflect a focus on high-performance geospatial platforms, sensor integration, and mission-critical software systems. She engages with vendors that offer proven capabilities in remote sensing, geospatial data analytics, and real-time visualization tools, fostering collaborative procurement environments that prioritize technical excellence, cybersecurity compliance, and system interoperability. Her contracting activity reflects a strong preference for unrestricted competition, with 96.7% of awards issued without set-aside designations. While small business participation is limited to 3.3%—primarily through Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5—she ensures that socioeconomic programs are considered where technically justified, maintaining alignment with NGA’s operational imperatives over socioeconomic targets. Isaak’s procurement focus is heavily concentrated in NAICS 511210 (Software Publishers), accounting for 80% of her activity, with additional emphasis on 541519 and 541511 for custom software development and integrated computer services. She specializes in acquiring geospatial software platforms, algorithm-driven analytics tools, and georeferenced data processing systems that enable precision intelligence production and decision support across DoD and interagency stakeholders.
