Karleigh Hall

Karleigh Hall serves as the PMA-264 Administrator at the Naval Air Warfare Center Air Division, where she oversees the acquisition and sustainment of advanced airborne sensor, navigation, and mission systems critical to naval air superiority. In this role, she leads the planning, solicitation, and contract execution for high-priority aviation electronics programs, ensuring seamless integration of next-generation avionics into fleet platforms. Her portfolio includes complex systems such as radar, electronic warfare suites, secure communications nodes, and integrated navigation aids, all aligned with the Navy’s strategic imperative to modernize airborne capabilities while maintaining legacy system readiness. Hall maintains consistent partnerships with industry leaders including SABRE SYSTEMS, LLC, THE BOEING COMPANY, SCIENCE APPLICATIONS INTERNATIONAL CORPORATION, SYSTEMS PLANNING AND ANALYSIS, INC., and ONTIC ENGINEERING & MANUFACTURING, INC. These relationships are characterized by long-term, technically demanding contracts requiring deep systems engineering expertise, rapid prototyping, and rigorous test and evaluation protocols. She collaborates closely with prime contractors who demonstrate proven capability in delivering mission-critical avionics under stringent military specifications and compliance frameworks. Hall’s procurement portfolio reflects a strict focus on open competition, with 100% of awards issued under no set-aside categories. While she does not prioritize socioeconomic set-asides such as 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB, her contracting approach emphasizes technical merit, performance history, and industrial base resilience over socioeconomic classifications. Her primary procurement activity centers on NAICS 334511—Search, Detection, Navigation, Guidance, Aeronautical, and Nautical System and Instrument Manufacturing—reflecting her deep specialization in airborne sensor fusion, radar signal processing, and electronic warfare subsystems. She routinely procures hardware and software-integrated systems requiring MIL-STD compliance, DO-178C software certification, and EMI/EMC validation, underscoring her technical command over the full lifecycle of complex naval aviation electronics.
