Alan D. Bergman

Alan D. Bergman serves as a key procurement professional at the Southeast Regional Maintenance Center, supporting the U.S. Navy’s surface fleet readiness through the management of critical ship maintenance and repair contracts. His role centers on executing acquisition strategies aligned with NAICS 488310, focusing on port and harbor operations essential to dry-docking, hull integrity assessments, and machinery overhauls. He ensures that contract vehicles facilitate timely, mission-critical vessel sustainment activities, including berthing, crane operations, tug support, and waterfront infrastructure services. Bergman’s work directly enables the agency’s mission to extend the service life of naval vessels through coordinated, technically rigorous procurement actions that align with Department of Defense maintenance standards. His contractor relationships are primarily with maritime service providers specializing in naval vessel support, including firms with expertise in shipyard logistics, harbor tug operations, and dry-dock facility management. While no specific contractor names are currently identifiable in the data, his procurement patterns reflect consistent engagement with vendors possessing deep domain knowledge in naval infrastructure and port operations. He prioritizes vendors with proven track records in high-tempo, safety-sensitive environments and maintains relationships with contractors capable of rapid mobilization during surge maintenance events. Bergman’s contracting portfolio exhibits a strong preference for open competition, with 100% of awards issued under non-set-aside conditions. This reflects a strategic emphasis on maximizing competition among qualified maritime service providers rather than leveraging socioeconomic set-asides such as 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB programs. His approach prioritizes operational capability and technical compliance over socioeconomic targeting, consistent with the mission-critical nature of naval maintenance. His primary industry focus is on NAICS 488310, encompassing port and harbor operations critical to naval vessel sustainment. He procures services including dry-dock access, mooring and unmooring operations, waterfront crane services, and harbor pilot coordination—all essential to maintaining combat-effective fleet readiness. His technical expertise lies in the intersection of naval architecture, maritime logistics, and infrastructure support, ensuring acquisitions meet stringent Navy maintenance and safety protocols.
