Christian Spangenberg

Christian D. Spangenberg serves as a primary contracting representative for the Naval Supply Systems Command Weapon Systems Support Mechanism (NAVSUP WSS Mech, N00104), where he plays a central role in securing mission-critical components that sustain the operational readiness of U.S. Navy weapon systems. His responsibilities encompass the end-to-end procurement of high-reliability mechanical, electrical, and electronic subsystems, including bare printed circuit boards, precision valve assemblies, current-carrying wiring devices, and passive electronic components. He ensures acquisitions align with Navy modernization priorities, emphasizing ruggedized, military-specification hardware for use in demanding naval environments. Spangenberg maintains consistent procurement relationships with industry leaders such as Raytheon Company and AMD International Technologies LLC, alongside specialized suppliers like The Entwistle Company LLC. His contracting patterns reflect a preference for established defense contractors with proven track records in delivering certified, high-integrity components under strict quality and traceability standards. These partnerships are characterized by long-term, repeat engagements, indicating a focus on supply chain reliability and technical continuity rather than transactional sourcing. His procurement portfolio is overwhelmingly non-set-aside, with 90.5% of awards issued under full and open competition, reflecting the technical complexity and specialized nature of the components required. However, he consistently allocates 9.5% of awards to total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5, demonstrating a measured but deliberate commitment to small business participation without compromising mission-critical performance requirements. Spangenberg’s primary technical focus lies in NAICS 334412 (bare printed circuit board manufacturing), with significant activity in 334416 (passive electronic component manufacturing), 335931 (wiring device manufacturing), and 334290 (communications equipment). His expertise centers on procuring precision electronic subsystems and electromechanical components essential for weapon system control, signal processing, and power distribution—domains requiring strict adherence to MIL-STD and IPC standards.
