Dayen Lagunas

Dayen Lagunas serves as a secondary procurement representative at the Southwest Regional Maintenance Center (N55236), supporting the Department of the Navy’s mission to sustain and modernize naval vessel readiness through industrial and maintenance contracting. While not the primary contracting officer, Lagunas plays a critical role in facilitating acquisition planning, vendor coordination, and contract administration for specialized ship repair and industrial support services. Their work ensures alignment with Navy engineering standards and operational readiness goals, particularly in areas requiring technical precision and industrial infrastructure support. Lagunas typically handles complex, multi-disciplinary procurements involving heavy industrial services, marine equipment, and facility maintenance contracts that require close coordination with technical and logistics teams. Lagunas maintains consistent working relationships with key industrial contractors including W. V. Construction Company, Turn Key Scaffolding LLC, Premier Scaffolding, Inc., Fairbanks Morse, LLC, and The Sherwin-Williams Company. These partnerships reflect a focus on high-safety, mission-critical services such as structural scaffolding, marine coating systems, propulsion equipment maintenance, and heavy industrial construction. The working pattern emphasizes long-term vendor engagement, performance-based contract management, and adherence to naval safety and environmental compliance standards, ensuring reliable delivery of mission-enabling services. A significant portion of Lagunas’s procurement portfolio—40.5%—is allocated to Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5, demonstrating a strong institutional commitment to small business participation. While no single socioeconomic category dominates, the pattern reflects a deliberate effort to broaden vendor diversity by leveraging small business capabilities across shipyard support, specialty trades, and industrial services, aligning with Navy-wide goals for equitable contracting opportunities. The primary NAICS focus areas center on Ship Building and Repairing (336611), reflecting core naval maintenance needs, followed by a notable emphasis on All Other Miscellaneous Schools and Instruction (611699), which supports specialized technical training for shipyard personnel. Additional procurement activity includes pumping equipment manufacturing (333914), reupholstery and furniture repair (811420), and specialty trade contracting (238990), underscoring a broad but targeted approach to sustaining naval infrastructure and workforce readiness.
