Jaymee Jiao

Jaymee S. Jiao supports the Naval Surface Warfare Center’s mission by managing critical procurement activities focused on advanced engineering and technical support services for naval surface platforms. Responsible for executing complex acquisitions in support of sensor systems, signal processing, and electronic warfare modernization, Jiao ensures that contracting strategies align with the Navy’s priorities in situational awareness, navigation, and undersea dominance. Her work directly enables the integration of cutting-edge technologies into fleet-ready systems, bridging technical requirements with acquisition compliance across the Department of the Navy’s research and development lifecycle. Jiao maintains consistent relationships with a select group of prime contractors, including CYNERGY PROFESSIONAL SYSTEMS LLC, Aerospace & Commercial Technologies, LLC, and Science Applications International Corporation, all of which provide specialized engineering, systems integration, and technical advisory services. These partnerships are characterized by long-term, performance-based contracts that emphasize innovation, rapid prototyping, and sustainment of mission-critical electronic systems. Her contracting approach favors experienced firms with proven track records in naval electronic systems, fostering collaboration on high-impact, technically demanding projects. Jiao’s procurement portfolio reflects a strong preference for open competition, with 100% of awards issued under no set-aside classifications. This indicates a focus on technical merit and capability over socioeconomic categorizations, prioritizing mission effectiveness and system readiness. While small business participation is not formally targeted, the nature of the work often attracts mid-tier and large firms with deep domain expertise in defense electronics. Her primary contracting focus lies in NAICS 541330 (Engineering Services), encompassing systems engineering, radar and sonar development, and electronic warfare support, with a secondary emphasis on NAICS 611710 (Educational Support Services), likely tied to technical training and workforce development for naval personnel. Jiao’s expertise centers on procuring high-fidelity instrumentation, signal analysis tools, and embedded software solutions critical to maintaining naval technological superiority.
