Justin G. Monti

Justin G. Monti serves as a Contract Specialist at Naval Undersea Warfare Center (NUWC) Division Newport, where he plays a pivotal role in executing complex procurements that support the Department of the Navy’s mission to advance undersea, surface, and aerial warfare capabilities. He manages the acquisition lifecycle for high-technology systems including naval sensors, navigation instrumentation, electronic warfare components, and integrated communication architectures. His work directly enables the development and fielding of mission-critical maritime systems, ensuring timely delivery of cutting-edge technologies through compliant, risk-managed contracting practices aligned with FAR and DFARS requirements. Monti maintains consistent working relationships with key industry partners including Science Applications International Corporation, Aerospace & Commercial Technologies, LLC, Astronics Test Systems Inc, Serco Inc, and Mikel Inc. These vendors are frequently engaged for systems integration, test and evaluation services, and specialized electronic component manufacturing. His contracting approach emphasizes technical precision, performance-based outcomes, and long-term vendor collaboration to support sustained operational readiness and rapid technology insertion.
