LaTeasha Cunningham

LaTeasha Cunningham supports the Naval Supply Systems Command Fleet Logistics Center Norfolk in executing critical procurement activities that sustain the operational readiness of the U.S. Navy’s fleet. She manages acquisitions for specialized engineering, maintenance, and logistics services essential to naval platform sustainment, with a focus on industrial instrumentation, communications equipment, and technical repair solutions. Her work directly enables mission-critical capabilities by ensuring timely delivery of high-reliability systems and services that support maritime superiority and fleet modernization efforts. Cunningham maintains established relationships with a diverse set of contractors, including OBSIDIAN GLOBAL, LLC for technical logistics support, DELOITTE & TOUCHE LLP for enterprise services, and ADVANIA ISLAND EHF. for specialized engineering solutions. She also regularly engages niche suppliers such as COMPLETE PARACHUTE SOLUTIONS, INC. and Computational Physics Inc. for mission-specific hardware and analytical systems. Her contracting approach emphasizes performance-based outcomes and long-term vendor partnerships grounded in technical reliability and compliance with naval standards. Her procurement portfolio reflects a strong commitment to small business participation, with nearly half of her awards structured as Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5.
