Kristin Randall

Kristin Randall serves as a key procurement lead within the Commanding Officer’s office (N63394) of the Department of the Navy, responsible for managing strategic acquisitions that sustain and modernize naval aviation and electronic warfare systems. She oversees the procurement of mission-critical aerospace components, secure communications infrastructure, and advanced engineering services essential to maintaining fleet readiness. Her portfolio emphasizes high-reliability electronic assemblies, sensor integration, and cybersecurity-enabled systems, ensuring compliance with DoD technical standards and operational requirements. Randall’s acquisitions directly support the Navy’s imperative to enhance airborne platform performance and electronic attack capabilities across deployed platforms. Her primary contractor relationships center on aerospace and defense leaders such as Lockheed Martin Corporation and Aerospace & Commercial Technologies, LLC, with whom she collaborates on complex, technically demanding contracts for avionics, EW systems, and mission-critical hardware. These partnerships reflect a preference for established industry primes capable of delivering integrated solutions under stringent military specifications, while maintaining rigorous oversight of supply chain integrity and defense industrial base resilience. Randall demonstrates a strong commitment to small business participation, with nearly half of her acquisitions structured as total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5. While no set-aside programs dominate, her pattern reflects consistent inclusion of small businesses capable of supporting niche technical requirements in electronic manufacturing and systems integration, aligning with Navy goals to broaden supplier diversity and foster innovation from emerging defense contractors. Her procurement focus is concentrated in specialized NAICS categories including 811219 (repair and maintenance of aerospace products), 339113 (surgical appliance manufacturing—reflecting cross-domain sensor component sourcing), and 541511 (custom computer programming for embedded systems). She frequently procures custom firmware, signal processing modules, and secure data link components, demonstrating deep technical expertise in embedded avionics, electronic warfare countermeasures, and mission-critical software development for naval platforms.
