Scott Stoolmiller serves as a key procurement professional within the Virginia Contracting Activity under the Defense Intelligence Agency, supporting mission-critical intelligence operations through the acquisition of advanced technical services. He manages a diverse portfolio of contracts focused on custom software development, systems analysis, and data exploitation technologies essential for classified intelligence processing. His work directly enables real-time operational support for national security missions, with a strong emphasis on engineering sciences, secure systems design, and mission-tailored IT solutions that meet stringent DoD compliance and classification requirements. Stoolmiller cultivates partnerships with a broad spectrum of contractors, primarily engaging firms specializing in cybersecurity, intelligence analytics, and defense-grade software engineering. While no single vendor dominates his award profile, he consistently collaborates with mid-tier and small businesses capable of delivering agile, classified-capable solutions under tight operational timelines. His contracting approach favors responsive, technically proficient vendors with proven experience in handling sensitive intelligence environments, fostering long-term relationships built on compliance, innovation, and mission alignment. His procurement strategy reflects a strong preference for open competition, with 88.9% of awards issued under unrestricted solicitation. However, he actively supports socioeconomic goals by dedicating 11.1% of opportunities to total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5, demonstrating a balanced commitment to fostering competition while ensuring access for qualified small businesses without mandating specific socioeconomically designated categories such as 8(a) or HUBZone. Stoolmiller’s primary technical focus lies in NAICS 541519 (Other Computer Related Services) and 541511 (Custom Computer Programming Services), reflecting deep specialization in tailored software development, data exploitation tools, and systems integration for intelligence applications. He frequently procures secure cloud-enabled platforms, algorithmic analysis tools, and engineering services supporting missile and sensor systems, underscoring his expertise in the intersection of defense technology and classified mission support.
