Jennifer Stock

Jennifer M. Stock serves as a Contract Specialist within the U.S. Coast Guard’s SFLC Procurement Branch 2 (70Z085), where she plays a pivotal role in executing complex acquisitions to sustain and modernize the Coast Guard’s fleet of cutters and maritime vessels. Her responsibilities encompass the full lifecycle of procurement activities—from market research and solicitation development to contract award and administration—primarily supporting shipbuilding, repair, and maintenance initiatives critical to operational readiness. She specializes in negotiated, performance-based contracts under FAR Part 15, ensuring compliance with defense acquisition regulations and lifecycle management standards for naval infrastructure. Stock maintains consistent working relationships with key industrial partners including Rolls-Royce Solutions America Inc., Vigor Marine LLC, JAG Industrial Services, Inc., G I Industrial-Marine, LLC, and L1 Enterprises Incorporated, all of which provide specialized marine engineering, vessel maintenance, and propulsion system integration services. These partnerships reflect a preference for experienced, technically capable vendors with proven track records in naval shipyard operations and maritime systems support, often involving long-term, multi-year contract vehicles to ensure continuity of critical maintenance capabilities. Her contracting patterns reflect a strong emphasis on open competition, with 66.9% of awards issued without set-aside, while maintaining a meaningful 33.1% commitment to total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5. This balance underscores a strategic focus on leveraging small business innovation without compromising mission-critical capabilities, with no significant reliance on 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB set-asides. Her procurement focus is overwhelmingly centered on NAICS 336611 (Ship Building and Repairing), accounting for over 73% of activity, complemented by engineering services (541330) and mechanical power systems (333618). She routinely manages contracts for hull modifications, propulsion upgrades, and integrated marine systems, demonstrating deep expertise in naval architecture and maritime industrial base procurement.
