Corey A. Rezner

Corey A. Rezner serves as a Contract Specialist at the Naval Surface Warfare Center, where he plays a critical role in executing procurements that support the development, integration, and sustainment of advanced electronic, sensor, and navigation systems for surface ships and maritime platforms. His acquisitions focus on mission-critical hardware and technical services that enhance situational awareness, signal processing, and precision instrumentation. Rezner manages the full lifecycle of contract actions—from market research and solicitation to award and administration—ensuring alignment with Navy modernization priorities and defense acquisition regulations. He maintains established working relationships with a core group of contractors including CYNERGY PROFESSIONAL SYSTEMS LLC, AEROSPACE & COMMERCIAL TECHNOLOGIES, LLC, and SCIENCE APPLICATIONS INTERNATIONAL CORPORATION, among others. These partnerships are typically centered on specialized engineering services, electronic component manufacturing, and system integration for naval platforms. Rezner’s procurement approach emphasizes technical rigor and vendor reliability, fostering long-term collaborations with firms capable of delivering high-integrity solutions under stringent military specifications. While the majority of his acquisitions are conducted as unrestricted competitions, Rezner consistently allocates approximately 10% of his portfolio to Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5, reflecting a deliberate commitment to expanding opportunities for small businesses without compromising mission requirements. He does not routinely utilize 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB set-asides, instead prioritizing broad small business participation through general set-asides that encourage competition among qualified vendors. His primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 335999 (miscellaneous electrical equipment), 333912 (air and gas compressor manufacturing), and 332911 (industrial valve manufacturing), reflecting a strong emphasis on electromechanical components, fluid control systems, and embedded electronics. Rezner’s technical domain expertise spans naval electronic warfare systems, sensor instrumentation, and auxiliary power and control subsystems critical to fleet readiness and undersea dominance.
