Jeremy S. Thompson

Jeremy Thompson serves as a Contract Specialist at the Southeast Regional Maintenance Center (N40027), where he plays a pivotal role in executing mission-critical acquisitions to sustain the U.S. Navy’s surface fleet. Responsible for managing the full lifecycle of procurement actions, he ensures compliance with FAR and DOD regulations while delivering timely maintenance, repair, and modernization services for naval vessels. His acquisitions primarily support dry-docking operations, structural overhauls, and hull and machinery upgrades under NAICS 336611, directly enabling operational readiness and service life extension for combat-effective warships. While no specific contractor relationships are currently identifiable in the data, Thompson consistently engages with a diverse pool of qualified vendors specializing in naval shipyard services, marine engineering, and naval architecture. His procurement patterns reflect a preference for established ship repair contractors with proven capabilities in dry-dock facilities, welding and fabrication, propulsion system retrofits, and corrosion control, fostering long-term partnerships grounded in technical proficiency and regulatory compliance. Thompson’s contracting portfolio demonstrates a strong emphasis on open competition, with 87.5% of awards issued without set-aside restrictions. However, he actively supports small business participation, allocating 12.5% of opportunities as total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5, consistent with DoD’s goals to expand industrial base resilience. His approach prioritizes socioeconomic inclusion without compromising mission readiness, ensuring qualified small businesses have equitable access to complex naval maintenance contracts. His expertise is singularly focused on NAICS 336611—Ship Building and Repairing—where he procures specialized services including structural steel replacement, electrical and mechanical system modernization, hull integrity assessments, and non-destructive testing. Thompson’s deep technical understanding of naval vessel lifecycle requirements ensures that all acquisitions align with Navy engineering standards and maintain compliance with naval shipbuilding specifications.
