Lisa C. King

Lisa C. King serves as a key procurement lead within the Naval Special Warfare Command, supporting the acquisition of mission-critical equipment and technical services essential to elite maritime and unconventional warfare operations. She manages a diverse portfolio of contracts focused on specialized fabricated metal components, tactical support systems, and professional technical services that directly enhance the readiness and operational capability of Special Operations Forces. Her work ensures timely delivery of ruggedized, field-deployable solutions tailored to high-stress maritime and land-based environments, aligning closely with the Command’s strategic priorities in mobility, unmanned systems integration, and advanced tactical training infrastructure. King maintains consistent working relationships with a select group of specialized contractors, including Trofholz Technologies, Inc., Pass Christian Yacht Works, LLC, and Teamworks Tactical Solutions Inc., each recognized for their niche expertise in defense-grade fabrication, maritime vessel modification, and tactical equipment support. She also collaborates with McKenzie Construction & Site Development LLC for mission-critical infrastructure and Airgas USA, LLC for specialized gas systems. These partnerships reflect a preference for vendors with proven experience in military-spec environments and the ability to deliver rapid, compliant solutions under demanding operational timelines. Her contracting approach demonstrates a balanced commitment to socioeconomic programs, with equal distribution across total small business set-asides, service-disabled veteran-owned small business (SDVOSB) set-asides, and open competitions. This pattern underscores a deliberate strategy to foster innovation from small, specialized firms while maintaining flexibility for mission-critical needs that may require broader market engagement. King’s procurement focus centers on NAICS 332999 for custom fabricated metal products—such as weapon mounts, hull reinforcements, and modular transport systems—and NAICS 541990 for professional technical services, including mission planning support, systems integration, and specialized training development. Her expertise lies in acquiring highly engineered, low-volume solutions that meet the unique demands of naval special warfare operations.
