Christin Rogers

Christin Rogers serves as a key procurement professional within the Norfolk Naval Shipyard Gf, supporting the Department of the Navy’s mission to maintain and modernize critical naval vessels through industrial and engineering services. Responsible for managing complex acquisition programs, Rogers oversees contracts for ship repair, machinery maintenance, and structural fabrication, ensuring compliance with naval standards and defense acquisition regulations. Their work directly enables fleet readiness by securing specialized industrial capabilities essential to extending vessel service life and sustaining operational readiness across the Navy’s surface fleet. Rogers maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of specialized contractors including G I INDUSTRIAL-MARINE, LLC, OWL INTERNATIONAL INC., AMEE BAY, LLC, MID ATLANTIC ENGINEERING TECHNICAL SERVICES, INC., and MILLS MARINE & SHIP REPAIR LLC. These partnerships reflect a preference for vendors with proven expertise in naval shipyard environments, particularly those capable of delivering precision mechanical repairs, fabricated metal components, and industrial systems integration. The contracting approach emphasizes reliability, regulatory compliance, and technical proficiency over volume, fostering long-term vendor collaboration grounded in mission-critical performance. While the majority of acquisitions are conducted as open competitions, Rogers demonstrates a strong commitment to small business participation, with approximately 30.8% of awards structured as total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5. This reflects a deliberate strategy to leverage qualified small industrial firms with niche capabilities in marine repair and fabrication, aligning with broader DoD socioeconomic goals without compromising operational requirements. The procurement portfolio is heavily concentrated in NAICS 811310 for commercial and industrial machinery repair, NAICS 336611 for shipbuilding and repair, and NAICS 332312 for fabricated structural metal manufacturing. These categories underscore deep technical expertise in naval maintenance ecosystems, including propulsion systems, hull integrity upgrades, and industrial ventilation infrastructure. Rogers’ work ensures that the shipyard’s industrial base remains agile, compliant, and technically aligned with the evolving demands of naval fleet sustainment.
