Lindsey Schuman

Lindsey Schuman serves as a key procurement professional within the Defense Counterintelligence and Security Agency (DCSA), supporting the agency’s mission to secure the defense industrial base through personnel vetting, cybersecurity enablement, and critical infrastructure protection. She manages a diverse portfolio of acquisitions focused on support services, professional training, engineering solutions, and IT systems that underpin the nation’s security clearance infrastructure. Her work ensures that DCSA maintains operational readiness by securing reliable, compliant, and scalable vendor capabilities essential to safeguarding classified environments and modernizing background investigation workflows. Schuman maintains established working relationships with a core group of contractors including SWISH DATA CORPORATION, AMD INTERNATIONAL TECHNOLOGIES LLC, SPATHE SYSTEMS LLC, ROCKWOOD COMPANY LLC, and IDEMIA IDENTITY & SECURITY USA LLC. These partnerships reflect a strategic emphasis on firms capable of delivering secure identity management, cybersecurity integration, data analytics, and mission-critical support services. Her contracting approach prioritizes proven performance, compliance with federal security standards, and technical agility in high-sensitivity environments. Her procurement patterns show a strong preference for open competition, with 66.7% of acquisitions conducted without set-asides, while maintaining a consistent 33.3% allocation to Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5. This balanced approach ensures broad market access while actively fostering small business participation across the national security supply chain, without favoring specific socioeconomic categories like 8(a) or HUBZone. Schuman’s primary NAICS focus areas include 561990 (All Other Support Services), 611430 (Professional and Management Development Training), 541330 (Engineering Services), and 541519 (Other Computer Related Services), reflecting her specialization in workforce readiness, technical infrastructure, and secure IT solutions. She routinely procures services related to cybersecurity training, identity verification systems, background investigation automation, and administrative management consulting to sustain DCSA’s mission-critical operations.
