EXHIBIT 31.1


               CERTIFICATION OF CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER

I, Roy E. Crippen, III certify that:

1. I have reviewed this annual report on Form 10-KSB of Digital
Fusion, Inc.;

2. Based on my knowledge, this report does not contain any
untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a
material fact necessary in order to make the statements made,
in light of the circumstances under which such statements
were made, not misleading with respect to the period covered
by this report;

3. Based on my knowledge, the financial statements, and other
financial information included in this report, fairly present
in all material respects the financial condition, results of
operations and cash flows of the registrant as of, and for,
the periods presented in this annual report;

4. The registrant's other certifying officers and I are
responsible for establishing and maintaining disclosure
controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules
13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) for the registrant and we have:

a)       designed such disclosure controls and procedures, or
         caused such disclosure controls and procedures to be
         designed under our supervision, to ensure that
         material information relating to the registrant,
         including its consolidated subsidiaries, is made
         known to us by others within those entities,
         particularly during the period in which this report
         is being prepared;

b)       evaluated the effectiveness of the registrant's
         disclosure controls and procedures and presented in
         this report our conclusions about the effectiveness
         of the disclosure controls and procedures as the end
         of the period covered by this report based on such
         evaluation; and

c)       disclosed in this any change in the registrant's
         internal control over financial reporting that
         occurred during the registrant's most recent fiscal
         quarter (the registrant's fourth fiscal quarter in
         the case of an annual report) that has materially
         affected, or is reasonably likely to materially
         affect, the registrant's internal control over
         financial reporting; and

5. The registrant's other certifying officers and I have
disclosed, based on our most recent evaluation of internal
control over financial reporting, to the registrant's
auditors and the audit committee of registrant's board of
directors (or persons fulfilling the equivalent function):

a)       all significant deficiencies and material weaknesses
         in the design or operation of internal control over
         financial reporting which are reasonably likely to
         adversely affect the registrant's ability to record,
         process, summarize and report financial information;
         and

b)       any fraud, whether or not material, that involves
         management or other employees who have a significant
         role in the registrant's internal control over
         financial reporting.
