Defense Intelligence Agency

The Defense Intelligence Agency, a Department of Defense intelligence-community component, procures IT services, enterprise infrastructure, and intelligence support capabilities to sustain its operational mission. DIA executes contracts through its Virginia Contracting Activity and other subordinate procurement offices.

DIA maintains a large cumulative contract footprint of 16,855 awards totaling $2.79 billion in combined potential value since 1996, with $7.39 billion obligated across the portfolio. Recent contract activity has declined sharply: the agency closed 24 awards in 2021, 30 in 2022, 53 in 2023, 6 in 2024, 1 in 2025, with the most recent recorded award date in May 2025. The vast majority of awards are transacted outside set-aside categories, with 94 percent of awards carrying no set-aside designation. Small-business set-asides account for 4 percent of awards, and all other designations (8(a), HUBZone, SDVOSB, HBCU/MI) collectively represent 2 percent of the portfolio.

Competitive concentration among prime contractors over the last five years is highly fragmented, with the top five by award count holding 29 percent of recent awards. Miscellaneous Foreign Awardees lead by count with 11 recent awards, followed by Thermo Electron North America LLC, New TECH Solutions Inc., Government Scientific Source Inc., and Government Acquisitions LLC with three to four awards each. By potential value over the same window, concentration is highly fragmented at 0 percent coverage, indicating that recent awards are predominantly small-dollar transactions, Schedule task orders, or BPA calls. Advanced Technology International leads by reported value at $6 million across two awards; Thermo Electron North America LLC, SES Technologies LLC, Nanoscience Instruments Inc., and Government Scientific Source Inc. follow with awards under $1 million each. Across the 2,451 distinct prime contractors awarded over portfolio history, no single prime dominates.

DIA awarded 29 grants totaling $31.7 million in federal dollars obligated between 2012 and 2018, with no grant awards recorded since September 2018. Grant activity peaked at 7 awards in 2014 and declined thereafter, with 1 or 2 awards annually through 2017 before closing at 5 awards in 2018. Project Grants comprise 83 percent of grant awards, with Formula Grants making up the remaining 17 percent. Among 22 distinct recipients, no recipient concentration data is available in the current portfolio summary.

Recent contract opportunities center on pre-solicitation RFIs issued by the Virginia Contracting Activity in September and October 2026. The agency released RFIs for Risk Management and Internal Control Services (HHM402-27-X-RMIC), Financial Accounting and Reporting (HHM402-27-X-FRAS), and Audit Remediation Services (HHM402-27-X-AUDIT), all with extended response deadlines of 30 October 2026. An earlier RFI for Enterprise Identity, Credential, and Access Management and Active Directory services closed 15 September 2026. An RFI for Signatures and Materials Exploitation (SIGMA EX) was posted 10 September 2026 with a due date of 1 October 2026. No grant opportunities are currently recorded.
