Kimberly D?la

Kimberly Dívila serves as a key procurement professional within the Virginia Contracting Activity under the Defense Intelligence Agency, supporting mission-critical intelligence operations through the acquisition of advanced technical services. She manages contracts focused on research and development in physical and engineering sciences, custom software development, and systems design services essential for real-time data exploitation and classified intelligence processing. Her work directly enables the agency’s national security objectives by securing specialized capabilities in intelligence analysis, systems integration, and operational support infrastructure. Dívila maintains a broad network of vendor partnerships, engaging both large defense contractors and niche technical firms capable of delivering classified systems and secure software solutions. Her procurement approach emphasizes performance-based outcomes, with frequent reliance on firms experienced in handling sensitive DoD environments and compliant with NIST and DIACAP standards. While no single contractor dominates her portfolio, she consistently collaborates with vendors possessing expertise in intelligence community requirements, including those certified in CMMC and ITAR compliance. Her contracting patterns reflect a strong preference for open competition, with 70% of awards issued without set-asides, yet she maintains a significant commitment to small business participation—30% of contracts are structured as total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5. This balanced approach ensures access to innovative capabilities while fostering economic opportunity among qualified small businesses, including those certified under SBA’s 8(a), HUBZone, and WOSB programs. Dívila’s primary procurement focus lies in NAICS categories including 611710 for educational support services tied to technical training, 541611 for management consulting in defense systems, and 423430 for computer hardware and software distribution. She frequently acquires services related to systems analysis, data exploitation tools, and mission-specific software development, demonstrating deep expertise in the technical domains underpinning modern intelligence operations.
