Jane T. Worley serves as a Contract Specialist at the Naval Air Warfare Center Aircraft Division (NAWCAD), where she plays a pivotal role in procuring advanced aviation systems critical to naval airpower readiness. Her responsibilities encompass the full lifecycle management of complex acquisitions for avionics, flight control systems, diagnostic instrumentation, and maintenance infrastructure. She ensures compliance with federal acquisition regulations while aligning procurements with NAWCAD’s mission to develop and sustain next-generation naval aircraft technologies. Her portfolio primarily involves research, development, test, and evaluation (RDT&E) contracts requiring technical precision and stringent performance standards. Worley maintains strong, ongoing relationships with key industry partners including Lockheed Martin Corporation, BAE Systems Information and Electronic Systems Integration Inc., PCI Aviation LLC, Critical Communications, Controls and Instruments, LLC, and Aerospace & Commercial Technologies, LLC. These partnerships reflect her focus on high-technology suppliers capable of delivering mission-critical components for military aircraft.
