Katie A. Johnson

Katie A. Johnson supports the procurement mission of Naval Facilities Engineering Systems Command Pacific (NAVFAC PACIFIC) by managing complex acquisitions for critical infrastructure and technical systems that sustain U.S. Navy and Marine Corps operations across the Indo-Pacific region. She oversees the planning, solicitation, and award of contracts for engineering services, electrical systems, and specialized communications equipment, ensuring alignment with DoD standards and operational readiness requirements. Her work directly enables the design, construction, and sustainment of military installations—including power grids, aircraft ramp systems, and mission-critical communications networks—while adhering to federal acquisition regulations and lifecycle cost principles. Johnson maintains consistent partnerships with a select group of prime contractors, including Amentum Mitie Pacific LLC, Jacobs/B&M Joint Venture, and Core Tech-HDCC-Kajima LLC, all of which bring deep expertise in defense infrastructure delivery. Her procurement patterns reflect a preference for established, high-capacity vendors with proven performance in complex, multi-disciplinary projects, often involving integrated design-build or construction management services. These relationships are characterized by long-term engagement, performance-based contract structures, and rigorous compliance with safety and environmental standards. Her contracting activity shows a strong preference for open competition, with 88.9% of awards issued without set-aside restrictions, indicating a focus on technical capability and mission urgency over socioeconomic classifications. While small business participation remains a secondary priority at 11.1%, it is primarily channeled through Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5, reflecting a balanced approach that prioritizes mission performance while maintaining statutory compliance. Johnson’s procurement focus centers on NAICS 541330 (Engineering Services), 334515 (Electrical Measurement Instrument Manufacturing), and 423610 (Electrical Equipment Wholesaling), underscoring her expertise in procuring technical systems for power distribution, signal integrity, and facility automation. She regularly sources specialized electrical apparatus, test instrumentation, and communications hardware essential to maintaining operational resilience in austere environments.
