David Macak

David Macak serves as a key procurement professional at Naval Surface Warfare Center, Crane Division (N00164), where he manages acquisitions critical to the development, testing, and sustainment of advanced electronic, electro-optical, and ordnance systems for naval warfare platforms. His role centers on securing mission-critical technologies that enhance precision sensing, signal processing, communications, and electronic warfare capabilities for surface and expeditionary forces. Macak routinely handles complex contracts for high-performance systems including radar detection suites, secure signal intelligence platforms, and integrated combat electronics, ensuring alignment with Navy modernization priorities and technical specifications outlined in solicitation documents. His primary contractor relationships include Lockheed Martin Corporation, Programs Management Analytics & Technologies Inc., Integrity Defense Services Inc., Black Hills Ammunition Inc., and McKenzie Construction & Site Development LLC. These partnerships reflect a focus on defense prime contractors delivering sophisticated electronics and ordnance solutions, alongside specialized firms providing technical services and site infrastructure support. Macak’s procurement approach emphasizes performance-based contracting and technical rigor, fostering long-term collaborations with vendors capable of meeting stringent military standards for reliability, interoperability, and classified system integration. Macak’s acquisition portfolio shows no reliance on socioeconomic set-asides, with 100% of awards issued under full and open competition. This reflects a strategic emphasis on accessing the broadest possible pool of technical expertise rather than prioritizing small business set-asides such as 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB programs. His contracting patterns prioritize capability and readiness over socioeconomic criteria, consistent with the high-stakes nature of naval electronic warfare systems. His procurement focus is exclusively aligned with NAICS 334511—Search, Detection, Navigation, Guidance, Aeronautical, and Nautical System and Instrument Manufacturing. This specialization underscores his deep expertise in acquiring advanced sensors, guidance systems, electronic countermeasures, and integrated combat electronics used across naval platforms, requiring rigorous compliance with MIL-STD and DoD cybersecurity frameworks.
