Jenny Tomeo

Jenny Tomeo serves as a key procurement professional within the Naval Surface Warfare Center, Philadelphia Division, supporting the U.S. Navy’s mission to sustain and modernize surface ship systems. She manages complex acquisitions for mission-critical engineering, electronic, and industrial control systems used in propulsion, damage control, and ballast infrastructure. Her work ensures operational readiness through the timely delivery of advanced naval technologies, focusing on integrated shipboard solutions that meet rigorous military specifications. Tomeo’s portfolio spans high-technical domains requiring rigorous testing, certification, and lifecycle support, positioning her at the center of the agency’s efforts to modernize legacy platforms with next-generation capabilities. She maintains strong, long-term relationships with leading defense contractors including FAIRBANKS MORSE, LEIDOS, ROLLS-ROYCE, G.S.E. DYNAMICS, and KAMPI COMPONENTS, partnering with firms that deliver specialized electrical components, propulsion systems, and shipboard integration services. These collaborations are characterized by technical alignment, performance reliability, and compliance with Navy engineering standards, reflecting a preference for established vendors with proven track records in naval environments. Her contracting approach emphasizes technical rigor and system interoperability over volume-based procurement. Tomeo’s contracting patterns show a strong orientation toward open competition, with 80.8% of awards issued without set-aside restrictions, indicating a focus on technical capability over socioeconomic preferences. However, she consistently supports small business participation through Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5, reflecting a balanced commitment to both mission-critical performance and economic opportunity within the defense industrial base. Her primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 335999 (miscellaneous electrical equipment), 336611 (shipbuilding and repair), and 541330 (engineering services), underscoring expertise in shipboard electrical systems, mechanical integration, and technical engineering support. She routinely procures custom components, control systems, and specialized instrumentation critical to the operational integrity of U.S. Navy surface vessels.
