Casie L. Marriage

Casie L. Marriage serves as a key procurement lead for the Commanding Officer (N63394) under the Department of the Navy, responsible for managing acquisitions that sustain and modernize naval aviation and electronic warfare systems. Her work centers on securing mission-critical aerospace components, advanced electronic assemblies, and cybersecurity-enabled communications infrastructure to ensure operational readiness. She oversees the full lifecycle of contract actions—from solicitation through award and performance—focusing on high-reliability hardware and engineered solutions for naval aircraft and sensor platforms. Her acquisitions directly support the Navy’s strategic imperatives in electronic warfare modernization and airborne system resilience. Marriage maintains strategic partnerships with leading defense contractors including Aerospace & Commercial Technologies, LLC and Lockheed Martin Corporation, leveraging their expertise in mission-critical electronics and integrated avionics systems. These relationships are built on long-term technical collaboration, with an emphasis on rapid prototyping, ruggedized component integration, and compliance with military specifications such as MIL-STD and DO-160. While major primes deliver complex system-level capabilities, she also facilitates subcontracting pathways for specialized small businesses to supply niche electronic components and testing services. A strong advocate for small business participation, Marriage consistently prioritizes Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5, with over half of her acquisitions reserved for small businesses. HUBZone set-asides are also utilized strategically to engage firms in economically distressed areas, reflecting a deliberate socioeconomic contracting approach. Her portfolio reflects a balanced blend of competitive small business opportunities and full-and-open competitions where technical complexity demands prime contractor scale. Her primary procurement focus lies in electronic manufacturing sectors, particularly NAICS 334418 for printed circuit assembly and 334419 for specialized electronic components. She regularly acquires custom connectors, signal conditioning modules, and embedded control systems critical to radar, jamming, and secure data link applications. Her technical acumen spans printed circuit board design, electromagnetic shielding, and MIL-STD-461 compliance, ensuring procured systems meet the rigorous demands of naval aviation environments.
