Jesusa G. Labial

Jesusa G. Labial serves as a key procurement professional within the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency (NGA), supporting the agency’s mission to deliver actionable geospatial intelligence through strategic acquisitions of advanced technical services. She manages a portfolio focused on research and development, systems design, and information technology solutions that enhance NGA’s geospatial data infrastructure and analytical capabilities. Her work directly enables the modernization of intelligence systems, ensuring the timely delivery of mission-critical geospatial products to defense and national security stakeholders. Labial typically handles complex, performance-based acquisitions under FAR Part 15, with an emphasis on service contracts requiring high technical expertise and secure data handling protocols. Her primary contractor relationships center on ECS Federal, LLC, a trusted partner in delivering geospatial analytics, cloud-enabled data platforms, and mission support services. Labial maintains a consistent working relationship with this vendor, often awarding task orders under indefinite-delivery, indefinite-quantity (IDIQ) vehicles for R&D and systems integration. She also engages with a diverse pool of professional services firms capable of supporting NGA’s evolving technical needs, fostering collaborative, long-term partnerships grounded in technical excellence and compliance with federal acquisition standards. Labial’s contracting patterns reflect a balanced approach to socioeconomic goals, with approximately two-thirds of awards issued as open competitions and nearly one-third allocated as total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5. She regularly includes service-disabled veteran-owned small businesses (SDVOSB) in her procurement strategy, demonstrating a deliberate commitment to expanding opportunities for qualified small businesses while maintaining mission readiness. Her primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 541715 (R&D in physical and engineering sciences) and 541512 (computer systems design services), reflecting a strong emphasis on geospatial algorithm development, data fusion, and secure cloud-based analytical platforms. She also procures related services in web portals, information systems, and other professional technical services critical to NGA’s intelligence lifecycle.
