Albert C Filo

Albert C. Filo serves as a Contract Specialist within the Commander (M00264) under the Department of the Navy, where he plays a critical role in executing mission-critical acquisitions that sustain and modernize naval warfighting capabilities. He manages the full lifecycle of contracts for advanced technology systems, including command and control architectures, tactical computing environments, and cyber-enabled communication platforms. His work directly supports operational readiness by ensuring timely delivery of integrated hardware, software, and engineering services aligned with Navy modernization priorities. Filo specializes in complex, technical procurements requiring rigorous systems engineering oversight and compliance with defense acquisition regulations. Filo maintains consistent procurement relationships with a select group of specialized contractors, including GOLDBELT HAWK L.L.C., ALEX-ALTERNATIVE EXPERTS, LLC, TNDA TECHNOLOGIES INC., BC MARKET SOLUTIONS LLC, and BIOSPACE, INC. These vendors provide niche expertise in defense-grade computing systems, communications equipment, and mission support services. His contracting patterns reflect a preference for established technical partners with proven capability in delivering secure, field-deployable solutions, indicating a focus on reliability and performance over broad market competition. Filo’s procurement portfolio is entirely non-set-aside, with 100% of awards issued under full and open competition. This reflects a strategic emphasis on accessing the broadest possible pool of technical expertise to meet urgent operational requirements, rather than prioritizing socioeconomic set-asides such as 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB programs. His approach prioritizes capability and timeliness, aligning with the agency’s mission-critical tempo. His primary NAICS focus areas—334220 (radio and wireless communications equipment), 423430 (computer and software wholesale), and 611699 (miscellaneous instruction)—reveal a deep specialization in procuring advanced communications hardware, commercial-off-the-shelf computing systems, and specialized technical training services. This triad underscores his domain expertise in integrating commercial technology with military-grade operational requirements, particularly in tactical networking and digital battlefield enablers.
