Audrey Sciandra

Audrey Sciandra serves as a key procurement professional at Portsmouth Naval Shipyard Gf, supporting the Department of the Navy’s mission to sustain and modernize U.S. Navy submarines and surface vessels. She manages complex acquisitions for industrial maintenance, specialized equipment, and mission-critical support services essential to naval readiness. Her work spans the full lifecycle of contract execution—from requirements definition and market research to award and performance oversight—ensuring compliance with federal acquisition regulations and naval engineering standards. Sciandra routinely handles contracts for precision fabrication, mechanical system repair, and industrial supply chain support, directly enabling the shipyard’s operational continuity and technical integrity. She maintains strategic relationships with a core group of contractors including NORTHROP GRUMMAN SYSTEMS CORPORATION for advanced industrial systems, UNITED RENTALS for heavy equipment logistics, KARDEX REMSTAR for automated material handling, BSE PERFORMANCE for technical maintenance services, and PATRIOT GLOBAL LODGING for mission-critical personnel support. These partnerships reflect a balanced approach between large industry primes and specialized niche providers, with an emphasis on reliability, technical capability, and mission alignment. Sciandra’s procurement portfolio reflects a strong commitment to small business participation, with nearly half of her awards designated as total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5. She consistently prioritizes socioeconomic programs that empower small, disadvantaged, and veteran-owned firms, fostering a diverse supplier base that enhances resilience and innovation within the shipyard’s industrial ecosystem. Her primary technical focus lies in NAICS 811310 for commercial and industrial machinery repair, NAICS 325120 for industrial gas manufacturing, and NAICS 532490 for equipment leasing. She procures specialized services including cryogenic gas systems, precision tooling maintenance, industrial automation, and technical training—domains critical to submarine and surface ship sustainment. Her expertise centers on high-integrity, safety-critical industrial operations supporting naval nuclear and conventional propulsion systems.
