Kyle S. Kiyonaga serves as a key procurement professional within the Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA), supporting the agency’s mission to deliver secure, resilient, and interoperable information systems for global military operations. He manages a diverse portfolio of acquisitions focused on mission-critical IT infrastructure, secure communications, and software modernization initiatives. His work directly enables command and control capabilities, cyber-enabled decision-making, and high-bandwidth network resilience across all domains. Kiyonaga typically handles complex, performance-based contracts for custom software development, network services, and telecommunications equipment, ensuring alignment with DoD cybersecurity standards and interoperability requirements. Kiyonaga cultivates partnerships with a broad range of vendors, including prime contractors specializing in enterprise IT services, cybersecurity solutions, and wireless communications equipment. While no single contractor dominates his portfolio, he consistently engages firms with proven expertise in DoD-compliant systems integration and cloud-enabled architectures. His contracting patterns reflect a preference for agile, outcome-driven procurement approaches that emphasize innovation, scalability, and rapid deployment of mission-critical capabilities. His procurement strategy prioritizes broad market access, with 85% of acquisitions conducted as unrestricted competitions and 15% set aside for total small business participation under FAR 19.5. Though no specific socioeconomic set-asides (e.g., 8(a), HUBZone, SDVOSB) are predominant, his consistent use of small business set-asides demonstrates a deliberate commitment to expanding vendor diversity and fostering competition among non-traditional defense contractors. Kiyonaga’s primary NAICS focus lies in 517919 (Other Telecommunications), reflecting his central role in procuring secure global communications infrastructure. He also regularly acquires custom computer programming services (541511), other computer-related services (541519), and wireless communications equipment manufacturing (334220). His technical expertise spans network modernization, mission software development, and field-deployable communications systems, positioning him at the intersection of defense IT modernization and operational readiness.
