New Mexico Department Of Information Technology

The New Mexico Department of Information Technology (NM DoIT), doing business as the Chief Information Officer, is a state government entity registered in SAM.gov that provides specialized technical services and infrastructure support to federal agencies. As the state's primary information technology organization, NM DoIT focuses on delivering critical technology and communication infrastructure solutions, particularly for law enforcement and digital equity initiatives. The organization is strategically positioned to support federal agencies by leveraging its existing infrastructure and personnel to efficiently fulfill contract and grant requirements.

Through federal contract awards, NM DoIT has primarily provided tower site maintenance and infrastructure services to the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA). These annual purchase order contracts, valued between $10,920 and $23,400, involve comprehensive technical services including maintenance of equipment shelters, generators, HVAC systems, cabling, antennas, lighting, security infrastructure, roads, and fencing to support law enforcement operations in the El Paso, Texas area. The contracts are consistently firm fixed-price agreements without specific set-aside designations, demonstrating NM DoIT's ability to provide specialized technical support directly to federal agencies on a recurring basis.

NM DoIT has secured significant federal grant awards focused on digital equity and broadband initiatives across New Mexico. Notable grants include a $3,986,000 project grant from the Department of Labor's Employment and Training Administration and an $8,673,975.84 grant from the National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA). These grants support developing statewide digital equity plans, improving broadband access, conducting stakeholder engagement, and implementing sub-grant programs to narrow the digital divide. The grant activities aim to improve device access, increase online information and government service accessibility, and support unserved and underserved populations in areas of economic development, education, health, civic engagement, and essential services. NM DoIT plans to sub-award funds to implement these digital equity activities across the state, demonstrating a comprehensive approach to addressing technological inequities.
