Meghan E Frey

Meghan E. Frey serves as a Contract Specialist within the Telecommunications Division (HC1013) of the Defense Information Systems Agency, where she plays a pivotal role in executing mission-critical acquisitions to secure and modernize the Department of Defense’s global communications infrastructure. She manages the full lifecycle of contracts for telecommunications services, network modernization, and secure connectivity solutions, ensuring alignment with DISA’s strategic objectives of resilience, interoperability, and cyber-hardened infrastructure. Her portfolio primarily encompasses complex, high-impact procurements involving carrier-grade telecom systems, virtual private networks, and mission-critical IT services supporting defense and federal operations. Meghan regularly collaborates with a core group of established contractors including AT&T Technical Services Company, Inc., Aerospace & Commercial Technologies, LLC, Liberty Communications, Inc., AOC Connect LLC, and Norfolk Fiber, LLC. These partnerships reflect a preference for vendors with proven expertise in deploying scalable, secure telecom architectures and integrated network solutions. Her contracting approach emphasizes performance-based outcomes, rigorous compliance with DoD cybersecurity standards, and long-term vendor reliability over short-term cost savings, fostering stable, mission-aligned relationships with industry leaders. Her procurement activity shows a 100% preference for full and open competition, with no set-asides designated for 8(a), HUBZone, SDVOSB, or other socioeconomic categories. This reflects a strategic focus on accessing the broadest possible pool of technically capable vendors to meet urgent, high-stakes telecommunications requirements, prioritizing capability and readiness over socioeconomic preferences. Meghan’s acquisitions are heavily concentrated in NAICS 511210 (Telecommunications Resellers and Service Providers), accounting for two-thirds of her portfolio, with the remainder focused on NAICS 541511 (Custom Computer Programming Services). She specializes in procuring managed network services, fiber-optic backbone solutions, secure data transport systems, and custom software integration for defense communications platforms, demonstrating deep technical fluency in enterprise telecom and mission-critical IT domains.
