Amber M. San Gil

Amber M. San Gil supports the Military Sealift Fleet Support Command in managing critical procurement activities essential to sustaining the U.S. Navy’s non-combatant fleet. Responsible for overseeing acquisition planning and contract execution, she ensures the operational readiness of auxiliary vessels through timely procurement of engineering services, maintenance systems, and vessel modernization solutions. Her work directly aligns with the agency’s mission to maintain seaworthiness and propulsion reliability across the Military Sealift Command’s fleet, focusing on complex, technical contracts that require specialized marine engineering expertise and compliance with naval logistics standards. San Gil engages with a diverse base of contractors specializing in ship repair, industrial machinery maintenance, and hazardous waste management services. While no single vendor dominates her portfolio, she consistently partners with firms possessing NAVSEA certifications, qualified shipyard capabilities, and experience in naval auxiliary vessel support. Her contracting patterns reflect a preference for performance-based, long-term service agreements that emphasize lifecycle support and technical compliance with Department of the Navy specifications. Her procurement strategy prioritizes broad market competition, with 83.4% of acquisitions conducted as unrestricted opportunities. However, she maintains a meaningful commitment to small business participation, consistently allocating 16.6% of contracts as total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5, supporting qualified firms without targeting specific socioeconomic categories like 8(a) or HUBZone. San Gil’s primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 336611 (Ship Building and Repairing) and 811310 (Commercial and Industrial Machinery Repair), reflecting deep expertise in propulsion system maintenance, marine environmental control upgrades, and vessel infrastructure modernization. She routinely procures specialized services including hull integrity assessments, auxiliary power unit overhauls, and hazardous material handling, demonstrating technical fluency in naval engineering domains and a strong alignment with fleet sustainment objectives.
