Kristin Randall

Kristin Randall serves as a key procurement professional within the Fleet Readiness Center, supporting the U.S. Navy’s mission to sustain and modernize aviation and maritime combat systems. She manages complex acquisitions for maintenance, repair, and technical services critical to fleet readiness, with a focus on legacy system modernization and predictive maintenance capabilities. Her work ensures operational integrity of naval aircraft, avionics, and mission-critical equipment through contract vehicles that align with Navy technical standards and lifecycle support requirements. Randall routinely handles service-based contracts requiring specialized engineering expertise, digital documentation integration, and compliance with military specifications. She maintains consistent working relationships with established contractors including CraneWorks, Inc., Furnacare Inc., and Carteret Fire Control, LLC, all of which provide high-value maintenance, repair, and sheet metal fabrication services tailored to naval aviation platforms. These partnerships reflect a preference for vendors with proven technical proficiency in complex mechanical and industrial systems, often requiring defense-specific certifications and on-site operational support. Her contracting approach emphasizes reliability, long-term sustainment capacity, and adherence to naval technical manuals and quality assurance protocols. Randall’s procurement portfolio reflects a balanced approach to socioeconomic contracting, with 75% of awards issued under open competition and 25% designated as Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5. While she does not prioritize specific socioeconomic categories such as 8(a) or HUBZone, her consistent use of small business set-asides demonstrates a deliberate commitment to expanding opportunities for qualified small firms capable of delivering precision maintenance and technical services. Her primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 811310 for commercial and industrial machinery repair, 541380 for testing and calibration services, and 332322 for sheet metal fabrication. These categories underscore her technical domain expertise in avionics support, non-electronic mechanical system maintenance, and structural component manufacturing—areas essential to sustaining naval airworthiness and mission readiness.
