Angela F. Little

Angela F. Little serves as a Contract Specialist within the Commanding Officer (N63394) of the Department of the Navy, where she plays a pivotal role in executing strategic acquisitions to sustain and modernize naval aviation and electronic warfare systems. Her responsibilities include managing the full lifecycle of complex procurements for mission-critical aerospace components, electronic assemblies, and cybersecurity-enabled communications infrastructure. She ensures compliance with federal acquisition regulations while aligning contract actions with operational readiness priorities across the Navy’s aviation enterprise, focusing on high-integrity, technically demanding requirements that support fleet-wide modernization efforts. Angela maintains strong, long-term partnerships with key industry leaders such as Aerospace & Commercial Technologies, LLC, and Lockheed Martin Corporation, reflecting a preference for established defense contractors with proven capabilities in advanced aerospace systems and integrated electronic warfare solutions. Her contracting approach emphasizes technical rigor, risk mitigation, and performance-based acquisition methods, often involving sole-source or limited competition actions for specialized components requiring proprietary expertise or classified supply chains. While the majority of her acquisitions—84.1%—are conducted without set-asides, she consistently facilitates 15.9% of awards through Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5, demonstrating a deliberate commitment to expanding opportunities for qualified small businesses in the defense aerospace sector. Her socioeconomic contracting patterns reflect a balanced approach: prioritizing technical capability while actively fostering competition among small businesses capable of meeting stringent military performance standards. Her primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 336413 (Other Aircraft Parts and Auxiliary Equipment Manufacturing), with significant activity in aircraft subsystems, avionics integration, and auxiliary power units. She also routinely procures hardware and electronic components under NAICS 332510 and 423690, underscoring her technical expertise in aerospace supply chain logistics and mission-critical electronic systems essential to naval air operations.
