Egbert M. Goodman

Egbert M. Goodman serves as a Contract Specialist at the Naval Surface Warfare Center, Carderock (N00167), where he plays a critical role in executing complex acquisitions to support the development and evaluation of advanced maritime systems. His responsibilities encompass the full lifecycle of contract management—from solicitation and source selection to award and administration—for technical projects focused on naval signature management, propulsion efficiency, and sensor integration. Goodman specializes in procuring specialized engineering services, test equipment, and precision manufacturing solutions that directly enhance the survivability and operational performance of U.S. naval vessels and underwater platforms. He maintains established working relationships with a core group of defense contractors, including BAE Systems Land & Armaments L.P., Goodrich Corp, and Aerospace & Commercial Technologies, LLC, reflecting a preference for vendors with proven expertise in high-precision industrial systems and defense-grade testing capabilities. His procurement approach emphasizes technical rigor and performance-based outcomes, often engaging joint ventures and niche manufacturers capable of delivering customized solutions for classified and sensitive naval applications. Goodman’s contracting portfolio reflects a strong emphasis on open competition, with 76.2% of awards issued without set-asides, while still maintaining a meaningful commitment to small business participation—23.8% of contracts are awarded under Total Small Business Set-Asides per FAR 19.5. Though not heavily skewed toward 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB programs, his office consistently ensures small businesses are considered for appropriate technical scopes aligned with their capabilities. His primary NAICS focus areas include Industrial Process Furnace and Oven Manufacturing (333994) and Other Measuring and Controlling Device Manufacturing (334519), indicating a specialization in thermal processing systems, sensor calibration equipment, and precision instrumentation. He also procures industrial testing services and machine shop capabilities (332710), underscoring his technical domain expertise in materials characterization, hydrodynamic testing, and nonhazardous waste management for naval research facilities.
