Meredith Mcie

Meredith Mcie serves as the primary contracting lead for the Federal Bureau of Investigation’s Office of Justice Programs (FBI-JEH), overseeing the acquisition of mission-critical technology and support services aligned with the agency’s forensic modernization and cyber-investigative priorities. Responsible for managing the full lifecycle of procurements under FAR and DFARS guidelines, Mcie specializes in securing advanced analytical instrumentation, secure communications infrastructure, and digital evidence management systems. Her portfolio centers on technical services that enhance forensic laboratory capabilities, cyber-enabled investigative tools, and the integrity of evidence analysis platforms, ensuring compliance with DOJ security and operational standards. Mcie maintains strategic relationships with key vendors including Vista Outdoor Sales LLC and Southern Police Equipment Company, Inc., primarily engaging them for specialized equipment and operational support solutions. Her contracting approach emphasizes performance-based outcomes, with a preference for established contractors possessing proven track records in law enforcement and forensic technology domains. While she collaborates with a limited number of primary vendors, she actively ensures competitive bidding practices and maintains rigorous oversight of contract performance to meet FBI’s high-security requirements. Her procurement pattern reflects a strong orientation toward open competition, with 88.9% of awards issued without set-aside designation. However, she consistently allocates 11.1% of opportunities to Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5, demonstrating a deliberate commitment to fostering small business participation without compromising mission-critical capabilities. This balance supports broader DOJ socioeconomic goals while maintaining operational readiness. Mcie’s primary NAICS focus lies in computer systems design (541512) and other computer-related services (541519), reflecting her emphasis on custom software, data analytics platforms, and cybersecurity integration. She also procures electronic computer manufacturing (334111) and facilities support services (561210), underscoring her expertise in end-to-end technical infrastructure deployment. Her domain knowledge spans digital forensics, secure data transmission, and laboratory automation systems, positioning her as a key enabler of the FBI’s technological modernization agenda.
