Corrine Gottshall serves as a Contract Specialist at the Naval Air Warfare Center (N68936), where she plays a pivotal role in executing complex acquisitions that support the development and integration of advanced naval aviation systems. Her responsibilities include managing the full lifecycle of contracts for mission-critical technologies, from solicitation and evaluation to award and administration. She specializes in procurements related to avionics, sensor systems, command and control platforms, and mission simulation software, ensuring alignment with the agency’s strategic priorities in next-generation air and maritime warfare capabilities. Her work directly enables the Navy’s technological edge through rigorous compliance with federal acquisition regulations and sound risk management practices. Gottshall maintains consistent contracting relationships with leading defense and aerospace contractors, including Lockheed Martin Corporation, Jacobs Technology Inc., SAIC, Kranze Technology Solutions Inc., and Teya Support Services LLC. These partnerships are primarily centered on engineering services, systems integration, and technical support for high-performance aviation systems. Her procurement approach emphasizes performance-based contracting and long-term vendor collaboration, fostering innovation and reliability in mission-critical deliverables. She routinely engages with prime contractors who bring deep domain expertise in electronic warfare, flight systems, and software-defined architectures. Her contracting portfolio reflects a strong preference for unrestricted competitions, with 95% of awards issued without set-asides, reflecting the technical complexity and scale of requirements.
