Christine Aledo

Christine Aledo serves as a key procurement professional at the Pearl Harbor Naval Shipyard IMF, supporting the Department of the Navy’s mission to sustain and modernize the U.S. Navy’s fleet through complex ship repair and industrial infrastructure contracts. She manages a specialized portfolio of acquisitions centered on naval vessel maintenance, mechanical overhauls, and mission-critical system refurbishment, ensuring operational readiness through precision engineering and shipyard-scale industrial support. Her work directly enables the shipyard’s core capabilities in dry-dock repairs, propulsion system upgrades, and hull integrity restoration, requiring deep technical understanding of naval engineering standards and Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement (DFARS) compliance. Aledo maintains consistent working relationships with leading industrial contractors including NORTHROP GRUMMAN SYSTEMS CORPORATION, PACIFIC INDUSTRIAL EQUIPMENT CORP, XLEAGLE LLC, FAIRBANKS MORSE, LLC, and PHILIP RIEKE. These partnerships reflect a blend of large defense integrators and specialized industrial suppliers, enabling end-to-end delivery of shipyard-specific components, machinery, and repair services. Her contracting approach emphasizes long-term vendor collaboration, performance-based outcomes, and technical alignment with naval engineering requirements, ensuring reliability and compliance across mission-critical maintenance cycles. Her procurement patterns reflect a balanced commitment to socioeconomic objectives, with equal emphasis on total small business set-asides and open competitions under FAR 19.5. This 50/50 split demonstrates a deliberate strategy to foster small business participation while maintaining access to specialized large-capacity vendors. She actively supports small business growth through targeted set-asides without compromising technical or schedule integrity. Aledo’s expertise is narrowly focused on NAICS 336611—Ship Building and Repairing—making her a specialist in naval industrial procurement. She routinely acquires heavy machinery, marine propulsion systems, hull fabrication services, and shipyard-specific tooling, requiring deep domain knowledge in naval architecture, corrosion control, and maritime regulatory compliance. Her work ensures the shipyard maintains its role as a strategic asset in national defense readiness.
