Nicole Logan

Nicole Logan serves as the primary contracting professional at Navsup Fleet Logistics Center Puget Sound, where she plays a central role in securing critical marine engineering systems and industrial components essential to the readiness of U.S. Navy surface and submarine fleets. She manages the full lifecycle of procurement actions for shipbuilding materials, mechanical subsystems, and precision-fabricated hardware, ensuring alignment with naval operational requirements and lifecycle sustainment goals. Her work directly supports the agency’s mission to maintain vessel integrity and operational longevity through timely, compliant, and technically sound acquisitions. Logan maintains consistent working relationships with key industrial partners including Timken Gears & Services Inc., Curtiss-Wright Electro-Mechanical Corp, Bellingham Marine Industries, Palfinger Marine USA, and Jered LLC. These vendors specialize in marine propulsion components, electro-mechanical systems, vessel fabrication, and deck handling equipment, reflecting a focus on high-reliability, defense-grade manufacturing. Her contracting approach emphasizes long-term vendor collaboration, technical validation, and performance-based contracting to ensure mission-critical systems meet rigorous naval standards. A strong advocate for small business participation, Logan consistently prioritizes Total Small Business Set-Aside contracts under FAR 19.5, with nearly 80% of her acquisitions reserved for small businesses. This reflects a deliberate strategy to foster innovation and capacity within the defense industrial base, particularly among firms certified under socioeconomic programs such as 8(a), HUBZone, and WOSB. Her contracting patterns demonstrate a sustained commitment to equitable opportunity and workforce development across the maritime supply chain. Her procurement focus centers on NAICS 336611 (Ship Building and Repairing), with significant activity in industrial valve manufacturing (332911), fluid power systems (333996), and synthetic rubber components (325212). She specializes in acquiring engineered hardware for propulsion, hydraulics, and structural integrity systems, demonstrating deep technical familiarity with naval engineering requirements and materials specifications critical to fleet sustainment.
