Heidi Brennan

Heidi Brennan serves as a primary contracting professional at NAVSUP Fleet Logistics Center Puget Sound, where she plays a pivotal role in securing critical marine engineering systems and industrial maintenance services essential to the readiness of U.S. Navy surface and submarine fleets. She manages the acquisition lifecycle for complex mechanical, fluid power, and structural components used in ship repair and modernization, ensuring compliance with naval technical standards and lifecycle sustainability goals. Her work directly supports the agency’s mission to maintain vessel integrity through precision-fabricated hardware and mission-critical maintenance solutions, often coordinating with engineering and logistics teams to align procurement with operational requirements. Brennan maintains consistent relationships with leading industrial suppliers including Timken Gears & Services Inc., Curtiss-Wright Electro-Mechanical Corp, Bellingham Marine Industries, Palfinger Marine USA, and Jered LLC, partnering with firms specializing in marine propulsion systems, electro-mechanical controls, and heavy-duty shipyard fabrication. These vendor relationships reflect a preference for established Tier-1 contractors with proven expertise in naval-grade components and long-term support capabilities, indicating a focus on reliability, traceability, and technical compliance over transient market entries. Her contracting portfolio is overwhelmingly non-set-aside, with 81% of awards issued under full and open competition, reflecting the specialized, high-integrity nature of the acquisitions. However, she consistently allocates nearly 20% of opportunities to total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5, demonstrating a measured but active commitment to small business participation within the constraints of mission-critical technical requirements. Her primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 811310 for industrial machinery repair and maintenance, followed by 336611 for shipbuilding and repair, with significant activity in fluid power systems (333996 and 333995) and industrial control manufacturing (335314). This technical alignment underscores her expertise in procuring hydraulic actuators, gear drives, control relays, and shipyard fabrication services critical to naval vessel sustainment.
