Eliott Lee

Eliott Lee serves as a key procurement professional within Naval Sea Systems Command (NAVSPEC), supporting the acquisition of advanced naval systems critical to fleet readiness and technological superiority. He manages complex contracting actions focused on the development, integration, and lifecycle support of mission-critical maritime electronics, including navigation, detection, and guidance systems. His work directly enables the modernization of U.S. Navy surface and undersea platforms, ensuring operational capability through the procurement of high-reliability, defense-grade technologies. Eliott’s portfolio emphasizes technical rigor and compliance with defense acquisition regulations, with a strong focus on systems engineering and electronic assembly integration. He maintains strategic relationships with leading defense contractors including Northrop Grumman Systems Corporation, Huntington Ingalls Incorporated, and Damen Shipbuilding & Cooperation B.V., partnering with prime contractors capable of delivering integrated naval systems at scale. His contracting patterns reflect collaboration with industry leaders experienced in shipboard electronics, combat systems integration, and mission-critical hardware manufacturing. These partnerships are typically structured under full and open competition, with a preference for contractors possessing deep expertise in naval architecture, electronic warfare, and systems-level testing and certification. Eliott’s contracting activity shows a strong preference for full and open competition, with only 15.4% of awards designated as total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5. While small business participation is present, the majority of procurements are awarded to large, established defense contractors with the capacity to deliver complex, high-integrity systems. His approach reflects the technical maturity and scale required for naval platform modernization, with limited use of socioeconomic set-asides such as 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB programs. His procurement focus is heavily concentrated in NAICS 334511, corresponding to the manufacture of naval and aeronautical navigation, detection, and guidance systems. He also engages in related activities under NAICS 334418 for printed circuit assembly and NAICS 541715 for physical and engineering R&D. His expertise lies in acquiring advanced electronic systems, sensor suites, and integrated combat platforms that underpin the Navy’s next-generation maritime dominance.
