Tim Stewart

Tim Stewart supports the Telecommunications Division (HC1013) of the Defense Information Systems Agency in executing critical procurement initiatives to modernize and secure the Department of Defense’s global communications infrastructure. He is responsible for managing the acquisition of satellite telecommunications services and related network enablers that ensure resilient, high-capacity connectivity for military and federal operations. His work directly advances DISA’s mission to sustain and expand secure, interoperable telecom systems, with a focus on replacing legacy architectures and deploying encrypted virtual private networks. Stewart routinely handles complex, mission-critical solicitations under the 517410 NAICS code, emphasizing technical performance, cybersecurity compliance, and operational continuity. He maintains consistent procurement relationships with leading providers of satellite and terrestrial telecom solutions, including AT&T Technical Services Company, Inc., Aerospace & Commercial Technologies, LLC, Liberty Communications, Inc., AOC Connect LLC, and Norfolk Fiber, LLC. These partnerships are characterized by long-term, performance-based contract vehicles that prioritize system reliability, rapid deployment, and end-to-end network security. His contracting approach favors established vendors with proven capabilities in secure satellite bandwidth, ground station integration, and tactical communications support. Stewart’s acquisition portfolio reflects a 100% non-set-aside strategy, with no utilization of 8(a), HUBZone, SDVOSB, or other socioeconomic preferences. This reflects the technical complexity and mission-critical nature of the services procured, which require specialized infrastructure and enterprise-scale capabilities not typically available through small business channels. His primary industry focus is satellite telecommunications (NAICS 517410), encompassing the procurement of geosynchronous and low-earth-orbit satellite capacity, encrypted data transport, ground segment equipment, and managed network services. He specializes in acquiring secure, scalable bandwidth solutions that support expeditionary operations, intelligence dissemination, and command-and-control resilience across contested environments.
