Michael S. Logan

Michael S. Logan serves as a Contracting Officer within the Commander (M00264), a critical element of the Department of the Navy responsible for sustaining and modernizing naval warfighting capabilities. He manages the acquisition of mission-critical technology systems, including tactical computing platforms, command and control architectures, and advanced sensor and communications equipment. His procurement portfolio supports operational readiness through the integration of cyber-enabled decision support tools and hardened hardware systems essential to naval superiority. Logan is responsible for full lifecycle contract management, from requirements validation and solicitation to award and performance oversight, ensuring compliance with DoD acquisition regulations and mission-driven outcomes. Logan maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of specialized contractors, including Goldbelt Hawk L.L.C., Alex-Alternative Experts, LLC, Tnda Technologies Inc., BC Market Solutions LLC, and Biospace, Inc. These vendors provide niche expertise in systems engineering, embedded computing, secure communications, and mission-specific software integration. His contracting approach emphasizes technical proficiency and proven performance, favoring partners with demonstrated experience in defense-grade hardware and software development. He cultivates long-term vendor partnerships grounded in reliability, compliance, and adaptability to evolving naval operational needs. Logan’s acquisition strategy reflects a strong preference for open competition, with 100% of his awards issued under no set-aside categories. This indicates a focus on technical merit and capability over socioeconomic designation, prioritizing mission-critical performance over mandatory small business set-asides. While he does not routinely utilize 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB programs, his contracting patterns reflect a deliberate alignment with the agency’s need for rapid, high-fidelity delivery of complex defense systems. His primary procurement focus lies within NAICS 334111 (Electronic Computer Manufacturing), 334112 (Computer Storage Device Manufacturing), and 334290 (Other Communications Equipment Manufacturing). He regularly acquires ruggedized computing hardware, secure data storage solutions, and specialized communications gear engineered for maritime and expeditionary environments, demonstrating deep expertise in defense electronics and tactical information systems.
