Hayley M. Graham

Hayley Graham serves as a Contract Specialist within the Naval Air Systems Command (NAVAIR), where she plays a critical role in managing the acquisition lifecycle for naval aviation systems. She supports the agency’s mission to develop, test, and sustain advanced aircraft, weapons, and avionics for the U.S. Navy and Marine Corps, focusing on complex procurement actions involving technical engineering, logistics support, and training services. Her work encompasses full-spectrum contracting from solicitation through award and administration, ensuring compliance with federal regulations while aligning acquisitions with NAVAIR’s strategic modernization goals for carrier-based and expeditionary air platforms. Graham maintains consistent procurement relationships with industry leaders including Sikorsky Aircraft Corporation, Lockheed Martin Corporation, and General Atomics, partnering with prime contractors who deliver high-performance aerospace systems, mission-critical components, and integrated sustainment solutions. Her contracting patterns reflect deep collaboration with Tier-1 defense aerospace firms, often coordinating technical requirements across multiple program offices to ensure seamless integration of new capabilities into existing naval air architectures. She also engages with specialized logistics and training providers such as Global Air Logistics and Training, Inc., to support operational readiness and workforce development. Graham’s contracting portfolio is entirely non-set-aside, reflecting the scale, technical complexity, and national security sensitivity of the systems she procures. While she does not utilize socioeconomic set-asides such as 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB programs, her work supports broader small business participation through subcontracting requirements and supplier development initiatives embedded within prime contracts. Her primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 336413 (Other Aircraft Parts and Auxiliary Equipment Manufacturing) and 336411 (Aircraft Manufacturing), with significant activity in 334511 for avionics and navigation systems. She also procures technical training services under 611519 and surveying and mapping services under 541370 to support flight testing and infrastructure planning. Her expertise spans advanced aerospace engineering, systems integration, and lifecycle sustainment within the naval aviation domain.
