Alexander Wood

Alexander Wood serves as a Contract Specialist within the Naval Information Warfare Systems Command (N00039), where he plays a critical role in executing complex acquisitions for mission-critical information warfare systems. He manages the full lifecycle of contracts supporting secure communications, cyber-enabled networks, and tactical data systems that underpin naval dominance across the electromagnetic spectrum. His portfolio primarily includes technical procurements for advanced communications equipment and computer systems design services, ensuring alignment with Navy strategic priorities in electronic warfare, network resilience, and real-time data integration. Wood works closely with engineering and acquisition stakeholders to translate operational requirements into compliant, risk-mitigated contracting solutions. He maintains consistent, long-term relationships with leading defense and technology contractors including Raytheon Company, Science Applications International Corporation, Intecon LLC, ITC Defense Corp, and Advanced Technology Systems Company, Inc. of Virginia. These partnerships reflect a focus on high-technology vendors with proven expertise in secure radio systems, cyber infrastructure, and embedded signal processing. His contracting approach emphasizes performance-based outcomes, technical rigor, and vendor accountability, often leveraging indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity (IDIQ) and other flexible contract vehicles to meet rapidly evolving operational needs. Alexander Wood’s procurement activity is exclusively conducted under open competition, with no set-asides applied to his portfolio. This reflects a strategic emphasis on accessing the broadest possible pool of technical capability, prioritizing mission effectiveness over socioeconomic preferences. While small business participation is not formally structured through set-asides, he ensures compliance with all applicable small business subcontracting requirements and encourages prime contractors to integrate qualified small businesses into their delivery teams. His primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 334290 (Other Communications Equipment Manufacturing) and 541512 (Computer Systems Design Services), underscoring deep specialization in the development and integration of secure, software-defined radio systems, tactical networking hardware, and mission-critical software architectures. He routinely oversees acquisitions for electromagnetic spectrum dominance systems, cybersecurity-hardened platforms, and real-time data fusion tools essential to naval command and control.
