Elysia Allen

Elysia Allen supports the Naval Supply Systems Command Fleet Logistics Center Norfolk in executing mission-critical procurement activities that sustain U.S. Navy fleet readiness. Though her official title is not listed, her procurement responsibilities center on securing engineering, logistics, and maintenance services essential to naval platform sustainment. She manages acquisitions across technical domains including ship repair, systems engineering, and specialized manufacturing, ensuring compliance with Department of the Navy standards and operational timelines. Her work directly enables maritime superiority by facilitating the timely delivery of mission-critical infrastructure and technical support services. Allen maintains established relationships with a select group of prime contractors, including Obsidian Global, LLC, Deloitte & Touche LLP, and Computational Physics Inc., reflecting a preference for firms with proven expertise in defense logistics, systems analysis, and advanced engineering. Her contracting patterns indicate consistent engagement with vendors capable of delivering complex, technically demanding solutions—particularly in shipbuilding, sheet metal fabrication, and power systems. These partnerships are typically structured as cost-reimbursement or fixed-price contracts requiring rigorous performance metrics and technical oversight. Her procurement portfolio reflects a strong emphasis on open competition, with 67.3% of awards issued without set-asides. However, she consistently supports small business participation, allocating 32.6% of contracts to Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5, demonstrating a balanced approach that prioritizes both capability and socioeconomic goals. While no specific 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB preferences are dominant, her reliance on small business set-asides signals a structured commitment to expanding vendor diversity within the defense supply chain. Allen’s primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 332322 (Sheet Metal Work Manufacturing), 541330 (Engineering Services), and 336611 (Ship Building and Repairing), underscoring her technical expertise in naval platform maintenance and industrial support. She routinely procures custom fabricated components, systems engineering support, and repair services for naval vessels, reflecting deep familiarity with maritime defense logistics and industrial base requirements.
