Norman P Julien

Norman P. Julien serves as a Contract Specialist at the Naval Facilities Engineering Systems Command (NAVFAC) Systems and Experimental Warfare Center, where he plays a pivotal role in executing complex acquisitions that support the Department of the Navy’s mission in advanced maritime research and infrastructure resilience. He manages the full lifecycle of procurement actions for technical, engineering, and scientific services, with a focus on experimental warfare technologies, ocean infrastructure development, and explosive effects analysis. His acquisitions are critical to sustaining naval operational readiness through innovation, requiring deep familiarity with federal acquisition regulations and specialized technical requirements. Julien maintains strategic relationships with a select group of specialized contractors, including SOCIEDAD ESPANOLA DE MONTAJES INDUSTRIALES SA, Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, and Emerging Compounds Treatment Technologies, Inc., reflecting a preference for niche technical providers with proven expertise in marine systems, environmental remediation, and experimental engineering. His contracting patterns emphasize long-term, performance-based partnerships with organizations possessing unique scientific capabilities, often involving R&D, field testing, and specialized construction services tailored to naval installations. His procurement approach reflects a balanced commitment to socioeconomic goals, with approximately one-third of his awards structured as Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5, demonstrating consistent support for small business participation without reliance on specific socioeconomic categories like 8(a) or HUBZone. The majority of his acquisitions are unrestricted, prioritizing technical merit and mission alignment over socioeconomic preferences. Julien’s primary NAICS focus is on Commercial and Institutional Building Construction (236220) and Building Inspection Services (541350), underscoring his expertise in procuring construction, inspection, and facility sustainment services for naval research and testing environments. His work centers on ensuring the structural and operational integrity of facilities supporting high-risk experimental warfare programs, requiring precise compliance with defense-specific engineering standards and safety protocols.
