Tanya M. Hill serves as a primary procurement lead within the Departmental Operations Acquisitions Division I (70RDA1), part of the Office of Procurement Operations at the Department of Homeland Security. In this role, she is responsible for managing the acquisition of mission-critical digital infrastructure, including biometric matching platforms, cybersecurity agents for operational technology environments, and high-assurance computing services that underpin national security operations. Her work directly supports the agency’s strategic imperative to enhance technological resilience against evolving cyber and physical threats, ensuring timely delivery of secure, scalable, and interoperable systems through full and open competition and targeted set-asides. While specific contractor relationships are not publicly detailed, Hill’s procurement patterns reflect engagement with a diverse ecosystem of technology vendors, including firms specializing in advanced software integration, defense-grade cybersecurity solutions, and mission-critical systems engineering. She fosters collaborative vendor partnerships grounded in performance-based contracting, rigorous technical evaluation, and compliance with Federal Acquisition Regulation standards, ensuring accountability and innovation across the supply chain. Hill demonstrates a strong commitment to small business participation, with nearly 30% of her acquisitions structured as Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5. Her contracting approach prioritizes equitable access for small businesses without reliance on specialized socioeconomic set-asides like 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB, favoring broad-based small business inclusion through competitive, unrestricted small business opportunities. Her primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 541519 (Other Computer Related Services), 334511 (Search and Detection System Manufacturing), and 541612 (Human Resources Consulting Services), reflecting a blend of technical systems acquisition and support services. She specializes in procuring biometric identification platforms, cybersecurity tools for industrial control systems, and engineering services that enable secure, scalable digital infrastructure for federal operational environments.
