Sarah E. Gregory

Sarah E. Gregory serves as a key procurement lead within Acquisitions - Aqm Momentum (19AQMM), a critical component of the Department of State responsible for securing mission-critical services to support U.S. diplomatic operations worldwide. She manages the full lifecycle of contracts for security infrastructure and protective services, ensuring the safety and operational continuity of U.S. embassies and consulates abroad. Her work centers on the acquisition of physical security solutions, including armed and unarmed patrol services, access control systems, and perimeter protection, all aligned with State Department security standards and international risk assessments. Gregory’s portfolio is narrowly focused on high-priority, mission-essential contracts that directly enable diplomatic presence and personnel safety in high-threat environments. She maintains long-standing relationships with a select group of specialized contractors, including PBG Consulting, LLC, CGI Federal Inc., AMD International Technologies LLC, P�tz Security AG, and KADIAK LLC_DGI-ATI II LLC_PROPERTY & ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT INC. These partnerships reflect a preference for vendors with proven expertise in global security operations, compliance with Department of State security protocols, and experience in austere or politically sensitive locations. Gregory consistently engages with firms that offer integrated, turnkey security solutions and maintain robust quality assurance and incident response capabilities. Gregory’s contracting activity is entirely non-set-aside, with 100% of awards issued under full and open competition. This reflects a strategic emphasis on selecting the most qualified providers based on technical merit, past performance, and global operational readiness, rather than socioeconomic preferences. While small business participation is not formally prioritized in her portfolio, vendors of all sizes are evaluated on their ability to meet stringent security and compliance requirements. Her procurement focus is exclusively under NAICS 561612 (Security Guards and Patrol Services), underscoring deep specialization in human-centric security operations. She procures armed and unarmed guard services, mobile patrol units, K-9 teams, and related support systems tailored to diplomatic compound protection. Her technical domain expertise lies in risk-based security planning, force protection standards, and the integration of physical security with intelligence-driven threat mitigation.
