Michelle Dillard

Michelle Dillard serves as a key procurement professional within GSA FAS Region 4, supporting the Federal Acquisition Service’s mission to deliver secure, mission-critical information technology and engineering solutions to federal agencies. She manages complex acquisitions for advanced computing systems, aeronautical instrumentation, and integrated technical services that underpin defense, aviation, and command-and-control operations. Her work ensures the timely delivery of cutting-edge capabilities through full and open competition and socioeconomic set-asides, aligning with GSA’s strategic priorities in digital modernization and national security readiness. Dillard maintains a consistent working relationship with AMD INTERNATIONAL TECHNOLOGIES LLC, a trusted contractor delivering specialized IT systems and engineering support. Her procurement approach emphasizes long-term vendor partnerships grounded in technical reliability and compliance with federal acquisition regulations. She frequently collaborates with niche technology providers capable of integrating hardware and software solutions for high-assurance environments, fostering a supplier ecosystem that balances innovation with operational resilience. Her contracting patterns reflect a strong commitment to small business participation, with nearly half of her awards structured as 8(a) competed set-asides, demonstrating a deliberate effort to expand opportunities for disadvantaged businesses. The remaining awards are issued under no set-aside conditions, reflecting a balanced strategy that supports both socioeconomic goals and mission-critical needs. This dual focus ensures equitable access while maintaining procurement flexibility. Dillard’s primary acquisition focus lies in NAICS 541519 (Other Computer Related Services) and 334511 (Search, Detection, Navigation, Guidance, Aeronautical, and Nautical System and Instrument Manufacturing). She procures software development, systems integration, avionics components, and mission-critical telemetry systems, with deep expertise in domains requiring high reliability, real-time data processing, and defense-grade cybersecurity compliance. Her work directly supports the modernization of aerospace and defense infrastructure across federal agencies.
