Marvin D Miles

Marvin D. Miles serves as a Contract Specialist within the Social Security Administration’s Office of Acquisition and Grants, where he plays a pivotal role in executing procurements that support the agency’s mission to sustain secure, efficient, and modernized operational infrastructure. He manages a diverse portfolio of acquisitions centered on IT modernization, systems integration, cybersecurity, and facility-related services critical to benefit delivery and public trust. His work ensures compliance with federal acquisition regulations while aligning procurement strategy with SSA’s strategic priorities in digital transformation and operational resilience. Marvin maintains consistent working relationships with key contractors including CA, Inc., Johnson Controls, Inc., East Coast Welding & Construction Co., Inc., and Colorid, LLC. These partnerships reflect a blend of large-scale systems integrators, facility services providers, and specialized technical vendors. His contracting approach emphasizes performance-based outcomes, clear statement of work development, and rigorous contract administration to ensure deliverables meet mission-critical standards across both IT and physical infrastructure domains. A staunch advocate for small business participation, Marvin consistently prioritizes Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5, with over 78% of his awards designated for small businesses. This reflects a deliberate and sustained commitment to socioeconomic contracting goals, fostering equitable access for small firms across multiple industries. His pattern of set-aside usage demonstrates alignment with federal mandates to expand opportunities for small, disadvantaged, and locally based vendors. Despite the agency’s focus on technology and infrastructure, Marvin’s procurement activity is predominantly classified under NAICS 621111—Offices of Physicians—which suggests a potential misclassification or data anomaly in the underlying system. The secondary categories, including electrical wholesaling and recreational centers, further indicate inconsistencies that may require data validation. Nonetheless, his core technical expertise remains grounded in IT systems, cybersecurity, and facility support services essential to SSA’s operational integrity.
