Anne Bihl

Anne Bihl serves as a key procurement professional within the Naval Supply Systems Command Weapon Systems Support Mechanism (NAVSUP WSS Mech, N00104), responsible for acquiring mission-critical mechanical, electrical, and electronic components that sustain the operational readiness of U.S. Navy weapon systems. Her work centers on the procurement of high-reliability subsystems including pumping systems, valve assemblies, circuit board manufacturing, and turbine-driven equipment, ensuring naval platforms remain mission-ready through timely and technically rigorous contract actions. She interfaces directly with industry partners to source precision-engineered components essential for maintenance, repair, and modernization of advanced naval platforms. Bihl maintains consistent contracting relationships with leading defense and industrial suppliers, most notably Raytheon Company, which appears repeatedly as a primary vendor across multiple contract actions. She also collaborates with AMD International Technologies LLC and The Entwistle Company LLC, indicating a preference for established contractors with proven expertise in aerospace-grade components and industrial machining. Her contracting patterns reflect a reliance on trusted, technically capable vendors with deep domain knowledge in naval systems integration and high-reliability manufacturing. Bihl’s procurement portfolio shows no use of socioeconomic set-asides, with 100% of awards issued under full and open competition. This reflects a mission-critical focus on technical capability and supply chain reliability over socioeconomic preferences, prioritizing performance, quality assurance, and rapid delivery over small business participation mandates. Her primary NAICS focus areas include 334511 for navigation and guidance systems, 333914 for pumping and dispensing equipment, 333611 for turbine generator units, 332710 for precision machine shops, and 332911 for industrial valve manufacturing. These reflect deep technical expertise in electromechanical subsystems, fluid control systems, and high-tolerance component fabrication critical to naval weapon system sustainment.
