Alisia Pajevic

Alisia Pajevic serves as a Contract Specialist responsible for managing the full lifecycle of procurement actions within the maritime defense sector. Her role encompasses the planning, solicitation, evaluation, and award of complex contracts aligned with federal acquisition regulations, ensuring compliance, transparency, and mission alignment. She specializes in shipbuilding and repair acquisitions, working closely with technical stakeholders to define requirements, structure performance-based contracts, and oversee contract administration to support naval readiness and infrastructure modernization. Her expertise ensures that acquisition strategies directly enable the maintenance, repair, and construction of critical maritime assets. While specific contractor names are not available, Pajevic maintains a consistent procurement pattern focused on prime contractors with proven capabilities in naval vessel construction, dry dock services, and marine systems integration. She engages with a diverse pool of vendors, including large defense primes and specialized shipyard firms, fostering competitive bidding environments and ensuring adherence to technical specifications and delivery timelines. Her working relationships are characterized by rigorous performance monitoring and proactive contract management to mitigate risk and ensure mission-critical deliverables. Pajevic’s contracting portfolio reflects a strong preference for unrestricted acquisitions, with 100% of her awards issued under the “No Set-Aside” category. This indicates a focus on technical capability and capacity over socioeconomic preferences, prioritizing the most qualified offerors based on merit, past performance, and compliance with stringent naval standards. While she does not currently utilize 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB set-asides, her approach ensures fair competition among all eligible vendors while maintaining mission fidelity. Her primary industry focus is NAICS 336611—Ship Building and Repairing—where she procures a broad range of services including vessel construction, dry-docking, hull and machinery repairs, propulsion system upgrades, and naval architecture support. Pajevic brings deep domain expertise in maritime engineering standards, Coast Guard and Navy regulatory frameworks, and the unique logistical demands of shipyard operations, making her a critical link between operational needs and acquisition execution in the defense maritime sector.
