Analaura Montalvo

Analaura Montalvo serves as a key procurement professional within the Naval Facilities Engineering Systems Command (NAVFAC) Systems and Experimental Warfare Center, supporting the Department of the Navy’s mission to advance operational readiness through cutting-edge engineering and experimental warfare technologies. She manages a diverse portfolio of acquisitions focused on ocean infrastructure, explosive effects analysis, and maritime system sustainment, ensuring technical solutions align with naval operational requirements. Her work spans the full lifecycle of contract execution—from market research and solicitation to award and performance oversight—with an emphasis on mission-critical R&D and specialized engineering services. Montalvo maintains strategic relationships with a select group of high-technical-capability vendors, including Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution for oceanographic research, Sociedad Española de Montajes Industriales SA for industrial marine systems, and Emerging Compounds Treatment Technologies, Inc. for environmental remediation solutions. Her contracting patterns reflect a preference for specialized, niche contractors with proven expertise in experimental naval technologies, marine engineering, and hazardous material handling, fostering long-term partnerships built on technical rigor and mission alignment. Her procurement approach prioritizes open competition, with 75% of awards issued without set-aside restrictions, while maintaining a consistent 25% commitment to Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5. This balance enables access to innovative small business capabilities while preserving flexibility for complex, large-scale technical requirements. Her primary NAICS focus areas include 237120 for oil and gas pipeline and related structures construction—reflecting work on coastal and underwater infrastructure—alongside 811310 for industrial machinery repair and 541330 for engineering services. These reflect deep expertise in sustaining naval installations, maintaining specialized equipment, and procuring advanced engineering support for experimental warfare systems, demonstrating a clear technical alignment with the Navy’s evolving maritime operational needs.
