Lance A. Dorsey

Lance A. Dorsey serves as a key procurement professional within the Securities and Exchange Commission, overseeing the acquisition of mission-critical services that support market surveillance, regulatory analytics, and investor protection initiatives. He manages a diverse portfolio of contracts focused on professional training, strategic consulting, and technical support services essential to modernizing the agency’s financial oversight infrastructure. His work ensures that SEC operations remain agile, compliant, and technologically advanced through the strategic deployment of contractor resources aligned with federal acquisition regulations. Dorsey maintains strong, ongoing relationships with leading federal contractors including General Dynamics Information Technology, Booz Allen Hamilton, Maximus Federal Consulting, Team GreenZone JV, and Procentrix, LLC. These partnerships are characterized by long-term, performance-based engagements centered on data analytics, cybersecurity, regulatory compliance training, and operational support. His contracting approach emphasizes vendor reliability, technical proficiency, and alignment with the SEC’s mission-driven objectives, fostering collaborative, results-oriented vendor relationships. A defining feature of Dorsey’s procurement strategy is his exclusive reliance on Small Business Set-Aside contracts under FAR 19.5, reflecting a steadfast commitment to socioeconomic diversity and equitable opportunity. All of his acquisitions are reserved for small businesses, ensuring that contracting resources directly benefit qualified small entities and contribute to broader government-wide goals for small business participation. His primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 611430 (Professional and Management Development Training) and NAICS 711410 (Agents and Managers for Artists, Athletes, Entertainers, and Other Public Figures), indicating a unique emphasis on specialized workforce development and advisory services. While the latter NAICS appears atypical for a financial regulator, it likely reflects niche support functions such as executive coaching, leadership development, or public communications strategy for SEC personnel. Dorsey’s expertise lies in aligning these specialized services with the SEC’s need for highly trained, adaptive professionals capable of navigating complex regulatory environments.
