Amanda E. Aung

Amanda E. Aung serves as a key procurement professional within the Naval Medical Logistics Command, supporting the readiness of U.S. Navy and Marine Corps medical forces through the acquisition of advanced diagnostic, analytical, and point-of-care medical systems. She manages complex contracting actions for mission-critical equipment that sustains combat casualty care, preventive medicine, and clinical diagnostics across global operational environments. Her portfolio centers on high-precision instruments and laboratory-grade technologies essential to field-deployable medical capabilities, ensuring alignment with DoD modernization priorities and operational tempo requirements. Aung collaborates with a diverse ecosystem of manufacturers and technical service providers specializing in industrial process control instrumentation and analytical laboratory equipment. While no single contractor dominates her award profile, she consistently engages with firms possessing ISO 13485 certification, FDA-registered manufacturing, and defense supply chain compliance. Her contracting approach emphasizes technical rigor, performance-based specifications, and lifecycle sustainment planning, fostering long-term vendor partnerships grounded in reliability and rapid response. Aung’s procurement patterns reflect a strong preference for open competition, with 100% of her acquisitions conducted without set-aside designations. This indicates a focus on maximizing technical capability and industrial base breadth rather than socioeconomic preferences, aligning with the command’s operational urgency and specialized technical requirements. While small business participation is not formally prioritized through set-asides, she remains responsive to qualified small businesses capable of meeting stringent performance and certification standards. Her primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 811219 (Medical and Diagnostic Laboratory Services), 334513 (Industrial Process Measurement and Control Instruments), and 334516 (Analytical Laboratory Instrument Manufacturing). She routinely acquires portable diagnostic devices, real-time analyzers, environmental monitoring systems, and precision calibration tools used in forward-deployed medical facilities, demonstrating deep expertise in biomedical engineering and military medical logistics procurement.
