Miranda Zamarron

Miranda Zamarron serves as a primary contracting professional within the Naval Air Warfare Center, supporting the acquisition of mission-critical technologies that advance naval aviation systems. She manages a diverse portfolio of contracts focused on research, development, testing, and evaluation of airborne command and control systems, avionics, sensors, and mission-critical software solutions. Her role is central to executing the agency’s strategic objectives in modernizing naval air warfare capabilities through rapid innovation and systems integration. Zamarron typically handles complex, high-technical-acquisition programs requiring rigorous engineering oversight and compliance with DoD acquisition regulations, including those governing classified and secure IT environments. She maintains strong, ongoing relationships with leading defense and aerospace contractors including Lockheed Martin Corporation, Jacobs Technology Inc., and Science Applications International Corporation, alongside specialized technical service providers such as Kranze Technology Solutions Inc. and Teya Support Services LLC. These partnerships reflect a pattern of sustained collaboration with prime contractors capable of delivering integrated hardware-software systems, advanced testing services, and mission-specific software development under tight operational timelines. Her contracting approach emphasizes performance-based outcomes and technical fidelity, often requiring multi-year contract vehicles to support iterative development cycles. Zamarron’s procurement portfolio shows no reliance on socioeconomic set-asides, with 100% of awards issued under full and open competition. This reflects a strategic emphasis on accessing the broadest possible pool of technical expertise, prioritizing capability over socioeconomic status in mission-critical domains where specialized engineering talent is scarce. While small business participation is not formally incentivized through set-asides, her contracting actions remain compliant with all applicable small business goals under DoD policy. Her primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 334220 for wireless communications equipment, 541511 for custom computer programming, and 541380 for testing laboratories, indicating deep expertise in avionics integration, real-time software development, and systems validation. She frequently procures secure communication systems, embedded firmware, mission simulation tools, and explosives handling technologies, underscoring her technical fluency across naval aviation’s most demanding domains.
