Donald R. Tillung

Donald R. Tillung serves as a Contract Specialist for the Commanding General under the Department of the Navy, where he plays a critical role in executing acquisitions that sustain operational readiness across naval and marine forces. He manages a diverse portfolio of contracts for maintenance, logistics, and mission-enabling support services, with a focus on ensuring the reliability of combat systems, mobility assets, and expeditionary infrastructure. His work directly supports the agency’s mission to maintain equipment functionality in both garrison and deployed environments through timely, compliant, and strategically aligned procurement actions. Tillung maintains consistent contracting relationships with a core group of vendors including MANCON LLC, GEMINI TECH SERVICES LLC, CHEMBLE SOLUTIONS, LLC, MICROTECHNOLOGIES LLC, and SAELIG COMPANY, INC. These partnerships span specialized technical services, equipment repair, and niche manufacturing capabilities essential to naval operations. His approach emphasizes performance-based contracting and long-term vendor collaboration, fostering reliable delivery of mission-critical support across complex operational domains. His procurement patterns reflect a balanced commitment to socioeconomic goals, with 42.9% of awards designated as Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5, demonstrating a deliberate emphasis on small business participation. While the majority of acquisitions remain open to all competitors, his consistent use of small business set-asides underscores a strategic intent to broaden the supplier base and enhance competition among qualified small entities. Tillung’s primary NAICS focus areas include 811490 (personal and household goods repair), 334290 (communications equipment manufacturing), 321114 (wood preservation), 611420 (computer training), and 335999 (miscellaneous electrical equipment manufacturing). These reflect a technical portfolio centered on equipment sustainment, specialized electronics, workforce development, and infrastructure resilience—domains requiring precise technical specifications and rigorous contract administration to meet naval operational standards.
