Mamiko Jackson

Mamiko Jackson serves as a Contract Specialist within the Strategic Systems Programs (N00030) under the Department of the Navy, where she plays a critical role in executing complex acquisitions for the lifecycle management of the U.S. Navy’s sea-based strategic deterrent systems. She specializes in procuring engineering, systems integration, and technical services essential to the design, test, and sustainment of submarine-launched ballistic missiles and associated command, control, and communication infrastructure. Her acquisitions are mission-critical, ensuring the operational readiness and nuclear deterrence posture of the nation, and she routinely manages contracts governed by FAR and DFARS requirements for high-assurance, classified, and systems-engineering-intensive projects. Jackson maintains consistent working relationships with prime contractors including Lockheed Martin Corporation, Northrop Grumman Systems Corporation, General Dynamics Mission Systems, Inc., Systems Planning and Analysis, Inc., and JRC Integrated Systems, LLC. These partnerships are centered on long-term, performance-based contracts for systems engineering, technical analysis, and advanced defense technology development. Her procurement approach emphasizes technical excellence, risk mitigation, and strict compliance with national security requirements, fostering collaborative, mission-aligned vendor relationships built on proven capability and reliability. Her contracting portfolio reflects a strong preference for full and open competition, with 100% of her acquisitions conducted without socioeconomic set-asides. This reflects the highly specialized, classified, and technically demanding nature of the work, which requires deep domain expertise typically found only among large, cleared defense contractors with established track records in strategic systems. The majority of her procurements fall under NAICS 541330 (Engineering Services), with significant activity in computer systems design and specialized technical services. She focuses on acquiring advanced systems engineering, weapons integration support, cybersecurity-enabled C4ISR solutions, and test and evaluation services critical to maintaining the integrity of the nation’s strategic deterrent infrastructure.
