Kevin

Kevin serves as a Contracting Officer within the Enterprise Information Technology unit of the Transportation Security Administration, where he leads the acquisition of mission-critical information technology systems designed to secure and modernize national transportation infrastructure. His responsibilities include managing the full lifecycle of complex procurements—from requirements definition and market research to contract award and performance oversight—focusing on cybersecurity-enabled computing services, cloud-based infrastructure, and systems design solutions that ensure operational resilience. Kevin’s portfolio centers on high-stakes, technology-driven acquisitions that support real-time threat detection, data integrity, and network continuity across federal transportation networks. Kevin cultivates collaborative relationships with a diverse range of vendors, including established systems integrators, specialized cybersecurity firms, and innovative small businesses. He actively engages with contractors capable of delivering custom software development, engineering services, and cloud migration solutions aligned with federal cybersecurity standards. His contracting approach emphasizes performance-based outcomes, agile delivery models, and strict compliance with NIST and CISA guidelines, fostering long-term partnerships with vendors who demonstrate technical excellence and mission alignment. Kevin demonstrates a strong commitment to socioeconomic contracting, with approximately one-third of his awards directed to 8(a) certified small businesses, while the majority of procurements remain open to full and open competition. This balanced approach ensures access to innovative capabilities from disadvantaged firms while maintaining competitive rigor. His procurement patterns reflect a deliberate effort to expand opportunities for small businesses without compromising mission requirements or acquisition efficiency. His primary technical focus lies in NAICS 541330 (Engineering Services), 541511 (Custom Computer Programming Services), and 519190 (Other Information Services), reflecting his specialization in bespoke software development, systems engineering, and data-driven information solutions. Kevin consistently procures services that integrate secure cloud platforms, real-time analytics, and cybersecurity frameworks essential to safeguarding critical transportation systems.
