Nikki Finney

Nikki Finney serves as a key procurement professional within the Federal Protective Service’s East CCG Division 4 Acquisition Division, operating under the Department of Homeland Security’s Office of Procurement Operations. She manages the acquisition of protective security services and integrated physical security systems critical to safeguarding federal facilities across the eastern region. Her responsibilities include planning, soliciting, awarding, and administering contracts for both armed and unarmed security personnel, as well as advanced security technologies such as access control systems, surveillance networks, and perimeter intrusion detection solutions. Finney’s work directly supports the agency’s mission to ensure the safety and resilience of federal infrastructure through strategic, compliant, and mission-driven contracting. She maintains strong, ongoing relationships with primary contractors American Eagle Protective Services Corp and HTI Systems LLC, reflecting a preference for vendors with proven capabilities in manpower security and integrated security system implementation. Her contracting patterns indicate a reliance on established partners with demonstrated performance in federal security environments, fostering long-term vendor collaboration grounded in compliance, quality assurance, and operational readiness. Finney’s procurement portfolio reflects a balanced approach to socioeconomic goals, with 40% of awards structured as total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5, demonstrating a clear commitment to small business participation. While the majority of acquisitions are open to all competitors, her consistent use of small business set-asides underscores a deliberate strategy to broaden vendor diversity and enhance competition within the federal security services sector. Her primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 561612 for security guard and patrol services, which accounts for 80% of her activity, alongside NAICS 561621 for security systems services. This specialization reflects deep expertise in both human security operations and the integration of physical security technologies, positioning her as a subject matter expert in federal facility protection contracting.
