Evelyn L Jenkins

Evelyn L. Jenkins serves as a Purchasing Agent at the Naval Supply Systems Command Fleet Logistics Center Norfolk (NAVSUP FLC Norfolk), where she plays a pivotal role in securing critical engineering, logistics, and maintenance services essential to U.S. Navy fleet sustainment. Responsible for executing full-cycle procurement actions under FAR and NAVAIR guidelines, she manages a diverse portfolio of contracts supporting naval platform repair, technical infrastructure, and mission-critical communications systems. Her acquisitions span complex technical services, specialized manufacturing, and logistics support, ensuring operational readiness across the Atlantic Fleet. Jenkins operates within a mission-driven environment requiring strict compliance, technical due diligence, and rapid responsiveness to fleet requirements. She maintains established relationships with key contractors including Obsidian Global, LLC for logistics and maintenance support, Deloitte & Touche LLP for enterprise-wide consulting services, Advania Island Ehf. for technical engineering solutions, Complete Parachute Solutions, Inc. for specialized maritime safety equipment, and Computational Physics Inc. for advanced simulation and modeling services. Her contracting patterns reflect a preference for trusted vendors with proven technical expertise in naval systems, often engaging through competitive sealed bidding and negotiated procurements to ensure performance reliability and mission alignment. Jenkins demonstrates a strong commitment to socioeconomic contracting, with over 61% of her acquisitions set aside for small businesses under FAR 19.5. Her procurement strategy consistently prioritizes total small business set-asides, fostering opportunities for small, innovative firms to contribute to national defense capabilities. While she does not typically utilize 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB-specific set-asides, her emphasis on small business participation reinforces NAVSUP’s broader mandate to expand vendor diversity and enhance competition. Her primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 336611 (Ship Building and Repairing), reflecting her deep engagement with naval vessel maintenance and modernization efforts. She also procures specialized equipment under 333618 (Other Engine Equipment Manufacturing) and institutional furniture under 337127, demonstrating expertise in both high-technology defense systems and support infrastructure. Her technical domain spans maritime engineering, mechanical systems, and logistics support services critical to fleet sustainment.
