Mark Damanskis

Mark Damanskis serves as a key procurement professional within the Naval Supply Systems Command Fleet Logistics Center Norfolk (NAVSUP FLC Norfolk), supporting the Department of the Navy’s mission to sustain operational readiness through strategic acquisition of logistics, engineering, and technical services. He manages a diverse portfolio of contracts focused on mission-critical support functions, including flight training, custom software development, administrative consulting, apparel contracting, and legal services. His work directly enables fleet sustainment by ensuring timely access to specialized capabilities that maintain naval platform integrity and enhance mission-critical infrastructure. Damanskis maintains active relationships with a mix of large and specialized contractors, including Deloitte & Touche LLP for management consulting, Obsidian Global, LLC for logistics support, and Computational Physics Inc. for advanced technical solutions. He also regularly engages niche providers such as Complete Parachute Solutions, Inc. and Advania Island Ehf., indicating a preference for vendors with domain-specific expertise. His contracting patterns reflect a balanced approach—leveraging established federal contractors for complex, high-integrity services while integrating smaller, innovative firms to meet agile operational needs. His procurement strategy demonstrates strong commitment to socioeconomic goals, with equal emphasis on total small business set-asides and 8(a) competed contracts, each accounting for 40% and 20% of his award profile, respectively. This reflects a deliberate effort to foster competitive small business participation and expand the supplier base for niche capabilities. He consistently prioritizes socioeconomic programs to enhance workforce diversity and resilience within the defense supply chain. Damanskis’s primary NAICS focus areas include custom computer programming services, administrative management consulting, flight training, cut and sew apparel contracting, and legal services—all aligned with the Navy’s need for integrated logistics, personnel readiness, and administrative support. His technical domain expertise spans both operational maintenance ecosystems and enabling services that underpin naval force sustainability.
