Michael J. Fay

Michael J. Fay supports the Federal Protective Service’s East CCG Division 3 Acquisition Division within the Department of Homeland Security’s Office of Procurement Operations, where he plays a key role in managing acquisitions that enhance the security of federal facilities. His work centers on procuring integrated physical and technological security solutions, including manned security services and advanced video surveillance systems. Fay ensures alignment with federal procurement regulations while prioritizing mission-critical infrastructure protection, overseeing contracts that bridge operational needs with commercial capabilities in security technology and support services. Fay maintains consistent working relationships with core contractors Simmons & Golden Security LLC and GXC MAX INC, both of which provide specialized security operations and surveillance system integration services. His procurement approach emphasizes long-term vendor partnerships grounded in performance reliability and compliance with federal security standards. These relationships reflect a preference for established providers with proven expertise in federal facility protection, enabling efficient execution of complex, high-stakes acquisition requirements. His contracting patterns show a balanced commitment to small business participation, with approximately one-third of awards structured as total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5, while the majority remain open to all competitors. This reflects a strategic approach that leverages socioeconomic programs to foster innovation and capacity-building without compromising operational readiness or mission urgency. Fay’s primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 541219 (Other Accounting Services), indicating significant demand for financial and administrative support services tied to security operations, and NAICS 517410 (Satellite Telecommunications), underscoring his expertise in securing secure, resilient communication networks for surveillance and emergency response systems. His technical domain centers on hybrid security ecosystems that integrate human security assets with encrypted, satellite-enabled surveillance and monitoring platforms.
