Nancy B. Peterson serves as a key procurement lead within the Commanding General’s office under the Department of the Navy, overseeing the acquisition of mission-critical maintenance, logistics, and specialized support services essential to naval and marine operational readiness. She manages a diverse portfolio of contracts focused on sustaining combat systems, mobility assets, and expeditionary infrastructure, ensuring equipment reliability across both garrison and deployed environments.

Peterson maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of contractors including MANCON LLC, GEMINI TECH SERVICES LLC, CHEMBLE SOLUTIONS, LLC, MICROTECHNOLOGIES LLC, and SAELIG COMPANY, INC. These partnerships reflect a preference for specialized vendors with proven expertise in equipment repair, testing services, and niche manufacturing. Her contracting approach emphasizes performance-based outcomes and long-term vendor collaboration, often leveraging task orders and indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity (IDIQ) mechanisms to respond dynamically to operational demands. A strong advocate for small business participation, Peterson consistently prioritizes Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5, with over 60% of her awards designated for small businesses. Her socioeconomic contracting patterns reflect a deliberate focus on inclusive procurement, fostering opportunities for small, disadvantaged, and service-disabled veteran-owned firms while maintaining rigorous performance standards. This commitment ensures broad vendor engagement and enhances supply chain diversity. Her procurement focus centers on NAICS categories including 337910 (Mattress Manufacturing), 541380 (Testing Laboratories and Services), 811310 (Commercial and Industrial Machinery Repair), 334511 (Aeronautical and Nautical Instrument Manufacturing), and 337214 (Office Furniture Manufacturing). These reflect a unique blend of operational support needs—from specialized test equipment and precision instrumentation to facility maintenance and environmental compliance—demonstrating deep technical familiarity with both military logistics and industrial service domains.
