Amanda L. Bailey

Amanda L. Bailey serves as the primary contracting representative for the Naval Supply Systems Command Weapon Systems Support Mechanism (N00104), where she leads the acquisition of mission-critical mechanical, electrical, and electronic components essential to sustaining U.S. Navy weapon systems. Her role centers on ensuring operational readiness through the procurement of high-reliability subsystems, including pumping systems, valve assemblies, and precision machined parts. She manages complex contracts for specialized manufacturing and assembly services, with a focus on components requiring stringent military specifications and quality assurance protocols under MIL-STD and AS9100 standards. Bailey maintains consistent partnerships with leading defense contractors including Raytheon Company, AMD International Technologies LLC, and The Entwistle Company LLC, all of whom provide advanced fabrication, welding, and metalworking capabilities. Her procurement patterns reflect long-standing, trusted vendor relationships built on technical expertise, supply chain resilience, and adherence to defense-grade quality controls. She routinely engages with vendors capable of delivering low-volume, high-precision components under tight delivery timelines, often supporting urgent fleet maintenance and modernization initiatives. Bailey’s contracting activity is exclusively non-set-aside, with 100% of awards issued under full and open competition. This reflects a strategic emphasis on technical capability and performance over socioeconomic classifications, prioritizing mission-critical outcomes and supply chain reliability. While small business participation is not formally incentivized through set-asides, her portfolio includes established small businesses that compete successfully on technical merit and proven track records. Her procurement focus is concentrated in NAICS 333992 (welding and soldering equipment manufacturing), 331491 (nonferrous metal rolling and extruding), and 332919 (metal valve and pipe fitting manufacturing), underscoring deep expertise in metallurgy, precision machining, and fluid control systems. She routinely sources components for naval propulsion, hydraulic, and electronic warfare systems, requiring expertise in copper alloys, stainless steels, and specialized thermal treatments.
