Tracy D. Riley

Tracy Riley serves as the primary Point of Contact for Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), facilitating the acquisition of advanced technology solutions critical to national security and immigration enforcement operations. In this role, she supports the agency’s mission to modernize digital forensics, data analytics, and secure communications infrastructure by coordinating procurement activities across technical and operational units. Riley interfaces with internal stakeholders to define requirements, validate technical specifications, and ensure compliance with federal acquisition regulations, primarily managing service-based contracts in computer-related and cybersecurity domains. Her work ensures that ICE’s technological capabilities remain agile, secure, and aligned with evolving law enforcement needs. While specific contractor names are not publicly disclosed, Riley collaborates with a diverse ecosystem of vendors providing custom software development, digital forensics tools, and secure data management services. Her procurement patterns reflect engagement with both large federal IT contractors and specialized small businesses capable of delivering tailored solutions for complex investigative environments. She maintains a consistent, transparent contracting process that emphasizes technical proficiency, scalability, and compliance with DHS cybersecurity standards. Riley’s contracting portfolio demonstrates a strong preference for open competition, with 81.4% of acquisitions conducted without set-aside restrictions. Nevertheless, she actively supports small business participation, with notable allocations to Total Small Business Set-Asides (12.8%) and targeted opportunities for SBA-certified Economically Disadvantaged Women-Owned Small Businesses (2.3%) and 8(a) firms (2.3%). Her approach balances broad market access with intentional inclusion of socioeconomically disadvantaged vendors. Her primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 541519 (Other Computer Related Services) and 541511 (Custom Computer Programming Services), reflecting a deep specialization in bespoke software solutions for digital evidence analysis and secure data integration. She also routinely procures professional training services (611430) to build internal capacity in emerging technologies, underscoring ICE’s investment in workforce readiness and operational resilience.
