James E. Greene

James E. Greene serves as a key procurement lead within Mschq Norfolk, supporting the Department of the Navy’s mission to sustain operational readiness of surface and auxiliary fleet assets. He manages complex acquisitions for ship repair, marine logistics, and mission-critical maintenance services, ensuring compliance with naval engineering standards and maritime operational requirements. His portfolio centers on industrial maintenance, vessel sustainment, and specialized marine equipment procurement, aligning with the agency’s focus on rapid turnaround and fleet availability. Greene’s contracting activities directly enable the Navy’s forward-deployed readiness by securing reliable, high-integrity support services for vessels operating in demanding maritime environments. Greene maintains longstanding relationships with core contractors including ExxonMobil Marine Limited for fuel and maritime logistics, Vigor Marine LLC for shipyard services and structural repairs, Booz Allen Hamilton Inc. for technical and systems integration support, and Ontic Engineering & Manufacturing, Inc. for precision marine components. He also engages with niche technical providers such as the Foreign Policy Research Institute for strategic maritime analysis. His contracting patterns reflect a preference for established, mission-proven vendors with proven track records in naval support, emphasizing performance reliability over transactional sourcing. Greene’s procurement strategy prioritizes open competition, with 93.8% of awards issued under no set-aside provisions, reflecting the specialized and mission-critical nature of the requirements. Only 6.3% of awards are designated as total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5, indicating a focus on capability over socioeconomic preference. While small business participation is limited, it is strategically applied where technical expertise and capacity permit, aligning with Navy directives for mission assurance. The agency’s procurement activity is overwhelmingly concentrated in NAICS 811310 for commercial and industrial machinery repair and maintenance, underscoring Greene’s deep expertise in mechanical systems sustainment. Secondary focus areas include electronic equipment repair (811210), shipbuilding and repair (336611), and specialized manufacturing of marine engineering systems. His technical domain spans vessel maintenance infrastructure, propulsion support, and precision marine hardware, requiring rigorous adherence to naval specifications and safety standards.
