Dorothy J Pitre

Dorothy J. Pitre serves as a Contract Specialist at the Naval Surface Warfare Center, where she plays a critical role in executing complex acquisitions that support the development, integration, and sustainment of advanced naval electronic systems. Her portfolio centers on mission-critical procurements for sensors, communications, navigation, and signal processing technologies essential to fleet readiness and undersea dominance. She manages full lifecycle contracting actions—from market research and solicitation development to award and administration—ensuring compliance with federal acquisition regulations while aligning with the Center’s strategic priorities in modernizing sonar, radar, and precision instrumentation systems. Pitre maintains established working relationships with key industry partners including CYNERGY PROFESSIONAL SYSTEMS LLC, AEROSPACE & COMMERCIAL TECHNOLOGIES, LLC, SCIENCE APPLICATIONS INTERNATIONAL CORPORATION, The Whiskey Project Group USA LLC, and WASHINGTON OFFICE INTERIORS LLC. These collaborations reflect a balanced mix of large systems integrators and specialized service providers, indicating a procurement approach that prioritizes technical capability, system interoperability, and mission-specific engineering support. Her contracting patterns suggest a preference for vendors with proven expertise in defense electronics and naval platform integration. Her set-aside preferences are predominantly open competition, with 83.3% of awards issued without socioeconomic set-asides, reflecting the technical complexity and limited vendor base in her domain. However, she consistently allocates 16.7% of awards to Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5, demonstrating a measured commitment to small business participation where market conditions permit. Her primary NAICS focus is 334511—Search, Detection, Navigation, Guidance, Aeronautical, and Nautical System and Instrument Manufacturing—indicating deep expertise in procuring advanced maritime electronic systems. She also regularly engages engineering services (NAICS 541330) and wireless communications equipment manufacturing (NAICS 334220), underscoring her technical proficiency in signal processing, radar architecture, and integrated combat systems procurement.
