Evangilista serves as a Contract Specialist at the Naval Facilities Engineering Systems Command (NAVFAC) Systems and Experimental Warfare Center, where she plays a pivotal role in executing mission-critical acquisitions that support advanced maritime research and naval operational readiness. She manages the full lifecycle of procurement actions for scientific, technical, and engineering services, with a focus on experimental warfare technologies, ocean infrastructure, and explosive effects analysis. Her work ensures timely delivery of innovative solutions aligned with Navy strategic objectives, bridging technical requirements with compliant contracting practices under FAR and DFARS guidelines. Evangilista maintains established relationships with a diverse set of contractors, including SOCIEDAD ESPANOLA DE MONTAJES INDUSTRIALES SA, Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, and Emerging Compounds Treatment Technologies, Inc., reflecting a blend of international, academic, and niche industry partners. She routinely engages with research institutions and specialized technical firms capable of delivering high-complexity, low-volume solutions in environmental science, oceanographic systems, and hazardous material treatment. Her contracting approach emphasizes collaboration with entities possessing deep domain expertise and proven capability in experimental naval environments. Her procurement strategy reflects a balanced commitment to socioeconomic goals, with approximately half of her acquisitions set aside for small businesses under FAR 19.5, and the other half conducted as full and open competitions.
