Andrea Tomeo

Andrea Tomeo serves as a key procurement professional within the Naval Surface Warfare Center, Philadelphia Division, supporting the U.S. Navy’s mission to sustain and modernize surface ship systems. Responsible for managing complex acquisitions in engineering, industrial control, and shipboard integration, Tomeo oversees contracts for mission-critical components including propulsion systems, damage control infrastructure, and ballast management technologies. Their work directly enables operational readiness by ensuring timely delivery of high-reliability hardware and maintenance services essential to naval platforms. Tomeo’s portfolio emphasizes technical procurement requiring deep domain expertise in mechanical, electrical, and industrial systems. Tomeo maintains strategic relationships with industry leaders such as Fairbanks Morse, LLC, Leidos, Inc., Rolls-Royce Corporation, G.S.E. Dynamics, Inc., and Kampi Components Co Inc. These partnerships reflect a preference for established defense contractors with proven capabilities in naval engineering, machinery integration, and shipboard system sustainment. The contracting approach prioritizes long-term vendor collaboration, technical validation, and performance-based outcomes, often involving complex requirements under FAR Part 37 service contracts and performance work statements. While the majority of acquisitions—79.3%—are conducted as full and open competition, Tomeo consistently allocates 20.7% of contracting opportunities to total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5. This reflects a deliberate commitment to fostering innovation and capacity within the small business industrial base, with no evidence of preference for 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB set-asides, indicating a focus on size-based eligibility rather than socioeconomic categories. Tomeo’s procurement focus centers on NAICS 333517 (Machine Tool Manufacturing) and 811310 (Commercial and Industrial Machinery Repair and Maintenance), with significant activity in plastics resin manufacturing (325211) and industrial laundering (812332). These reflect the Division’s need for precision-engineered components, maintenance of shipboard equipment, and specialized textile and fabric solutions for containment and filtration systems, demonstrating expertise in both advanced manufacturing and operational sustainment domains.
