Alecia West

Alecia Jackson serves as a key procurement professional within SPRMM1 DLA Mechanicsburg, part of the Defense Logistics Agency’s Maritime division, where she manages the acquisition of mission-critical electronic and electrical components for U.S. Navy propulsion, control, communications, and power distribution systems. Her work directly supports naval operational readiness by ensuring the timely delivery of high-reliability hardware essential to maritime platforms. She specializes in complex, technical solicitations under the NAICS 334412 category, focusing on bare printed circuit board manufacturing and associated subsystems that require stringent military specifications and supply chain traceability. Her acquisitions are typically sole-source or competitive sealed bids for components requiring advanced engineering validation and long-term sustainment support. Jackson maintains established relationships with leading defense contractors including Electric Boat Corporation, Southwest Research Institute, Thales Defense & Security Inc., ECI Defense Group, Inc., and RFD Beaufort Inc., all of whom provide specialized engineering, fabrication, and testing services for naval-grade electronics. Her contracting patterns reflect a preference for proven, qualified vendors with demonstrated expertise in MIL-STD compliance, RoHS adherence, and long-lifecycle component management. These partnerships are characterized by deep technical collaboration and a focus on supply chain resilience for mission-critical systems. Her procurement strategy prioritizes open competition, with 93.3% of awards issued without set-aside designations, reflecting the specialized nature of the components and the limited pool of qualified suppliers. Only 6.7% of awards are designated as total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5, indicating a focus on technical capability over socioeconomic preferences, though small business participation remains a secondary consideration where feasible. Her domain expertise centers exclusively on bare printed circuit board manufacturing and related electronic subsystems, requiring precise knowledge of IPC standards, lead-free soldering, multilayer board fabrication, and military-grade environmental testing. She ensures all procurements meet stringent DoD quality assurance protocols for naval applications.
