Jordan Good

Jordan Good serves as a key procurement professional within the Naval Surface Warfare Center, Carderock (N00167), supporting the Department of the Navy’s mission to advance maritime warfare capabilities through research, development, and testing of naval platforms. Specializing in shipbuilding and repair acquisitions, Good manages complex contract vehicles focused on hydrodynamic optimization, signature management, propulsion system integration, and advanced sensor survivability technologies. Their role is central to ensuring that cutting-edge naval systems meet rigorous performance and stealth requirements, overseeing the full lifecycle of technical acquisitions from requirements definition through contract award and performance monitoring. Good maintains consistent working relationships with leading defense contractors including BAE Systems Land & Armaments L.P., Goodrich Corp, and Aerospace & Commercial Technologies, LLC, partnering primarily with established prime contractors with proven expertise in naval systems engineering and maritime testing. These vendor relationships are characterized by long-term technical collaboration, often involving joint development efforts for classified or proprietary naval technologies. The procurement approach emphasizes technical rigor and performance-based outcomes, with a preference for vendors possessing deep domain knowledge in ship systems integration and naval architecture. Good’s procurement activity is exclusively focused on non-set-aside contracts, with 100% of awards issued under full and open competition. This reflects a strategic emphasis on accessing the broadest possible pool of technical expertise, prioritizing capability and mission readiness over socioeconomic set-asides. While small business participation is not formally incentivized through set-aside programs, contractors of all sizes are evaluated on technical merit and past performance. The agency’s procurement activity is entirely concentrated under NAICS 336611 (Ship Building and Repairing), with acquisitions centered on hull form optimization, acoustic and magnetic signature reduction, propulsion efficiency enhancements, and underwater vehicle testing infrastructure. Good’s expertise lies in procuring highly specialized engineering services and test equipment critical to maintaining U.S. naval superiority in littoral and open-ocean environments.
