Lindsay G. Hurley

Lindsay G. Hurley serves as a key procurement professional within the Naval Air Systems Command (NAVAIR), supporting the lifecycle management of naval aviation systems for the U.S. Navy and Marine Corps. Responsible for executing complex acquisitions across aircraft systems and mission-critical components, Hurley plays a central role in ensuring operational readiness through the timely acquisition of advanced avionics, propulsion systems, and auxiliary equipment. Their work directly supports NAVAIR’s mission to modernize carrier-based and expeditionary aircraft fleets, with a focus on sustaining air superiority through integrated logistics and technical sustainment contracts. Hurley typically manages full-spectrum procurements—from initial requirements development through contract award and performance oversight—ensuring alignment with defense acquisition regulations and naval aviation readiness goals. Hurley maintains consistent, high-volume contracting relationships with leading defense aerospace primes including Sikorsky Aircraft Corporation, Lockheed Martin Corporation, and General Atomics. These partnerships center on the development, integration, and sustainment of rotary-wing and unmanned aircraft systems, precision-guided munitions, and mission-critical avionics. The working relationship pattern reflects long-term, performance-based contract structures with a strong emphasis on technical innovation, systems integration, and supply chain resilience. These contractors are trusted partners in delivering next-generation capabilities under strict military specifications and rapid deployment timelines. Hurley’s procurement portfolio is entirely non-set-aside, with 100% of awards issued under full and open competition. This reflects a strategic emphasis on maximizing technical capability and industrial base efficiency rather than socioeconomic set-asides. While small business participation is not formally prioritized through set-aside mechanisms, the nature of the procurements often involves tiered subcontracting that enables small business involvement through prime contractor supply chains. The primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 336413 (Other Aircraft Parts and Auxiliary Equipment Manufacturing), encompassing sensors, flight control systems, and mission support hardware. Additional emphasis is placed on aircraft manufacturing (336411) and ordnance systems (332994), demonstrating deep expertise in airborne weapons integration and avionics modernization. Hurley’s domain knowledge spans rotary-wing platforms, unmanned aerial systems, and integrated weapons suites critical to naval airpower projection.
