Tanya R. Bigelow

Tanya R. Bigelow serves as a Contracting Officer responsible for managing the acquisition of security systems services across federal operations. In this role, she ensures compliance with federal procurement regulations while delivering mission-critical solutions that support national security and infrastructure protection. Her portfolio primarily encompasses the procurement of integrated security systems, including surveillance, access control, intrusion detection, and monitoring technologies. She works closely with program managers and technical evaluators to define requirements, develop solicitation documents, and conduct source selection processes that prioritize performance, reliability, and cybersecurity readiness. While no specific contractor relationships are identified in available data, Ms. Bigelow engages with a broad range of vendors capable of delivering comprehensive security systems services under full and open competition. Her contracting approach emphasizes competitive bidding, clear performance metrics, and contract administration rigor to ensure vendor accountability and operational effectiveness. She maintains a neutral stance toward preferential programs, consistently conducting procurements under full and open competition without set-asides, reflecting a focus on capability-driven sourcing rather than socioeconomic preferences. Ms. Bigelow’s procurement strategy shows no reliance on 8(a), HUBZone, SDVOSB, or other socioeconomic set-asides, with 100% of her acquisitions conducted under full and open competition. This pattern indicates a procurement philosophy centered on technical merit and vendor capacity rather than socioeconomic targeting, aligning with agency priorities that emphasize mission-critical performance over socioeconomic quotas. Her primary focus is on NAICS 561621—Security Systems Services (except Locksmiths)—which encompasses the design, installation, integration, and maintenance of electronic security systems. She routinely procures solutions involving CCTV networks, biometric access systems, alarm monitoring platforms, and cybersecurity-enabled surveillance infrastructure, demonstrating deep expertise in the technical and operational demands of modern physical security systems.
