Beverly Buck-Jimenez

Beverly Buck-Jimenez serves as a Contract Specialist within the Naval Special Warfare Command, supporting the acquisition of mission-critical capabilities for U.S. Special Operations Forces. She manages the full lifecycle of complex procurements aligned with maritime unconventional warfare requirements, including specialized equipment, communications systems, and tactical infrastructure. Her role ensures timely delivery of high-priority goods and services that enhance operator readiness, mobility, and technological advantage in austere environments. She works closely with technical stakeholders to translate operational needs into compliant, performance-based solicitations under FAR and DFARS guidelines. Buck-Jimenez maintains consistent relationships with a select group of specialized vendors, including Trofholtz Technologies, Inc., Pass Christian Yacht Works, LLC, Teamworks Tactical Solutions Inc., and McKenzie Construction & Site Development LLC. These partnerships reflect a focus on niche manufacturers and service providers capable of delivering custom maritime systems, tactical fabrication, and expeditionary site development. Her contracting approach emphasizes long-term vendor collaboration, technical validation, and rapid response to evolving operational demands, often involving sole-source or limited-source justifications under exigent circumstances. She demonstrates a firm commitment to small business participation, directing 100% of her acquisitions toward small business set-asides under FAR 19.5. This reflects a deliberate strategy to leverage the agility and innovation of small entities while ensuring compliance with socioeconomic contracting mandates. Her portfolio consistently awards contracts to small businesses without preference for specific categories like 8(a) or HUBZone, indicating a broad-based emphasis on capacity-building across the small business ecosystem. Her primary NAICS focus areas include Radio and Television Broadcasting and Wireless Communications Equipment Manufacturing, Other Electronic Component Manufacturing, Plastics Materials Merchant Wholesalers, and All Other Miscellaneous Schools and Instruction. These reflect procurement of advanced radio systems, custom electronic components, tactical polymer parts, and specialized training support services—core enablers of naval special operations’ technological and human performance edge.
