Patry Socias

Patry Socias serves as a primary contracting professional at Naval Supply Systems Command Fleet Logistics Center Jacksonville, supporting the U.S. Navy’s operational readiness through the acquisition of mission-critical logistics, maintenance, and infrastructure services. Responsible for managing a diverse portfolio of procurement actions, Socias ensures timely delivery of essential support capabilities ranging from facility maintenance to specialized equipment procurement. Their work directly enables the sustainment of naval platforms and personnel by securing reliable, compliant, and responsive vendor solutions aligned with Department of the Navy strategic priorities. Socias maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of contractors including Stronghold SOF Solutions LLC, Gemini Tech Services LLC, Emerald Isle Federal Services, LLC, First Division Consulting Inc., and Curtiss-Wright Electro-Mechanical Corp. These partnerships reflect a preference for experienced, technically capable vendors capable of delivering complex logistics, technical support, and industrial equipment services under tight operational timelines. The contracting approach emphasizes performance-based outcomes and long-term vendor reliability over transactional engagements. A strong commitment to small business participation is evident in Socias’s procurement patterns, with 55.6% of awards structured as total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5. This reflects a deliberate strategy to foster economic opportunity and enhance competition by prioritizing small businesses across multiple socioeconomic categories, including SDVOSB and HUBZone firms, while maintaining flexibility for non-set-aside acquisitions when technical or operational exigencies require broader market access. Socias’s primary NAICS focus areas include 238990 (All Other Specialty Trade Contractors), 238290 (Other Building Equipment Contractors), 238910 (Site Preparation Contractors), 333924 (Industrial Truck and Stacker Machinery Manufacturing), and 532289 (All Other Consumer Goods Rental). This indicates deep expertise in procuring facility infrastructure support, material handling systems, and specialized rental equipment critical to fleet maintenance and base operations, demonstrating a technical understanding of naval logistics environments and industrial support requirements.
