Toyia Lewis

Toyia Lewis serves as a Contract Specialist within Washington Headquarters Services, a critical support agency of the Department of Defense responsible for delivering enterprise-wide administrative and operational services. In this role, she manages the full lifecycle of procurement actions for professional, scientific, and technical services that enable DoD institutional efficiency and digital modernization. Her responsibilities include developing solicitation documents, conducting market research, evaluating proposals, and administering contracts in compliance with FAR and DFARS regulations. She primarily handles acquisitions for advisory, research, and management consulting services that support the strategic transformation of defense infrastructure and internal systems. Lewis maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of contractors including CLARITY INNOVATIONS LLC, CYNERGY PROFESSIONAL SYSTEMS LLC, SIGNATURE RENOVATIONS LLC, AMD INTERNATIONAL TECHNOLOGIES LLC, and GUIDEHOUSE INC. These partnerships reflect a preference for established firms with proven expertise in defense-sector consulting, technical support, and institutional modernization. Her contracting approach emphasizes performance-based outcomes, clear statement of work development, and structured contract oversight to ensure alignment with WHS mission objectives. Her procurement portfolio reflects a strong preference for open competition, with 83.3% of awards issued without socioeconomic set-asides, while 16.7% are structured as total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5. This pattern demonstrates a balanced commitment to both broad market access and targeted opportunities for qualified small businesses, particularly those with specialized capabilities in professional services. Lewis’s primary NAICS focus areas include 541720 (Research and Development in the Social Sciences and Humanities) and 541990 (All Other Professional, Scientific, and Technical Services), with additional emphasis on 541618 (Other Management Consulting Services) and 541110 (Offices of Lawyers). She routinely procures analytical, policy, and operational support services that inform DoD decision-making, streamline administrative processes, and enhance institutional governance across the defense enterprise.
