Brittany Chartier

Brittany N. Chartier serves as a Contract Specialist at the Puget Sound Naval Shipyard and Intermediate Maintenance Facility (N4523A), supporting the Department of the Navy’s mission to sustain fleet readiness through precision ship repair and industrial maintenance. In this role, she manages the full lifecycle of procurement actions for complex naval maintenance contracts, ensuring compliance with FAR and DOD acquisition regulations. Her portfolio centers on shipbuilding and repair services, with a strong emphasis on mission-critical industrial support, system overhauls, and specialized maintenance of naval vessels. Chartier ensures timely, compliant, and cost-effective contract execution to maintain the operational availability of the U.S. Navy’s fleet. She maintains enduring relationships with a core group of industrial contractors, including LAKE UNION DRYDOCK CO, SUNBELT RENTALS, INC, FLUKE ELECTRONICS CORP, PAULEY RODINE INC, and MOTIVE POWER MARINE, LLC. These partnerships reflect a preference for vendors with proven expertise in naval shipyard operations, marine power systems, precision instrumentation, and heavy industrial maintenance. Chartier fosters collaborative, performance-based contracting environments, emphasizing quality assurance, technical compliance, and on-time delivery in high-stakes maintenance environments. Chartier demonstrates a robust commitment to small business participation, with 91.7% of her acquisitions structured as Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5. Her contracting patterns consistently prioritize small business concerns, ensuring equitable access to federal opportunities for qualified firms in the maritime and industrial services sectors. This reflects a strategic alignment with DOD socioeconomic goals and a deliberate effort to strengthen the small business industrial base supporting naval readiness. Her procurement focus is overwhelmingly concentrated in NAICS 336611 (Ship Building and Repairing), with minor activity in NAICS 811310 (Commercial and Industrial Machinery Repair) and 238990 (Other Specialty Trade Contractors). She specializes in procuring technical services for drydocking, hull integrity work, propulsion system maintenance, and industrial equipment calibration—domains requiring deep naval engineering knowledge and regulatory compliance expertise.
