Greg Tollefsen

Greg Tollefsen serves as a key procurement lead within the Naval Air Warfare Center Air Division, supporting the development, testing, and sustainment of advanced naval aviation systems. He manages complex acquisitions for mission-critical avionics, electronic warfare subsystems, and next-generation aircraft integration projects, ensuring alignment with the Navy’s strategic priorities in air superiority and operational readiness. His portfolio spans engineering services, research and development, and specialized aerospace component manufacturing, with a focus on delivering technically sophisticated solutions that enhance fleet capability and lifecycle sustainment. Tollefsen maintains consistent working relationships with industry leaders including SABRE SYSTEMS, LLC, The Boeing Company, SCIENCE APPLICATIONS INTERNATIONAL CORPORATION, SYSTEMS PLANNING AND ANALYSIS, INC., and ONTIC ENGINEERING & MANUFACTURING, INC. These partnerships reflect a balanced approach between large prime contractors delivering integrated systems and specialized firms providing niche technical expertise in avionics, mission systems, and engineering analysis. His contracting patterns emphasize long-term collaboration, technical validation, and performance-based acquisition strategies to ensure mission-critical system reliability. His procurement approach reflects a strong commitment to small business participation, with approximately half of his acquisitions structured as total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5. This demonstrates a deliberate effort to foster innovation and capacity within the small business industrial base, particularly among firms capable of supporting niche aerospace manufacturing and systems engineering requirements. The remaining half of his portfolio operates under open competition, enabling strategic sourcing from both small and large entities based on technical merit and capability. Tollefsen’s primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 336413 (Other Aircraft Parts and Auxiliary Equipment Manufacturing), followed by engineering services (541330) and applied R&D (541715). He routinely procures specialized aircraft subsystems, sensor integration hardware, electronic warfare components, and technical analysis services essential to modernizing airborne platforms and sustaining legacy naval aviation systems. His expertise centers on the technical domains of airborne communications, navigation, and mission systems integration.
