Tony Ojeda

Tony Ojeda serves as a Contract Specialist within the Investigations and Operations Support Dallas unit of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, supporting mission-critical acquisitions that enhance law enforcement readiness and digital investigative capacity. He manages the full lifecycle of procurement actions for technology-enabled operational tools, including digital forensics platforms, secure communications systems, and specialized training infrastructure. His role is central to ensuring that ICE’s field operations maintain technological superiority through compliant, efficient, and strategically aligned contracting practices aligned with DHS and FAR guidelines. Ojeda routinely handles complex service and equipment acquisitions requiring high levels of technical vetting and interagency coordination. Ojeda maintains consistent working relationships with key vendors such as Cellebrite Inc., Thomson Reuters Special Services LLC, and Cerifi LLC, all of which provide advanced digital evidence extraction, intelligence analytics, and forensic software solutions. He also collaborates with niche providers like Ensurity Mobile Corp. and the San Diego Association of Governments to support mobile field operations and regional interoperability initiatives. His contracting approach emphasizes long-term vendor partnerships grounded in technical reliability, data security compliance, and proven performance in high-stakes law enforcement environments. Ojeda’s procurement portfolio reflects a strong preference for unrestricted competition, with 87.2% of awards issued under no set-aside authority. However, he consistently supports small business participation through Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5, demonstrating a measured but deliberate commitment to socioeconomic contracting goals. While not heavily focused on 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB programs, his awards regularly include qualified small businesses that meet stringent technical and operational requirements. His primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 334310 (Audio and Video Equipment Manufacturing) and 713990 (All Other Amusement and Recreation Industries), reflecting demand for ruggedized digital evidence collection hardware and simulation-based training systems. He also procures specialized computer services under NAICS 541519, underscoring expertise in digital forensics, data analytics, and secure mobile application development tailored to federal law enforcement operational needs.
