Petra Y. Perez

Petra Y. Perez serves as a Purchasing Agent for Naval Special Warfare (N47898), where she plays a critical role in securing mission-critical capabilities that enhance the operational readiness of elite maritime special operations forces. Her procurement activities center on acquiring specialized training services, unconventional transportation equipment, and integrated logistical systems tailored for austere, high-stress environments. She ensures acquisitions align with the agency’s strategic priorities in human performance enhancement, waterborne platform support, and rapid-deployment command systems, often navigating complex regulatory frameworks to deliver timely, compliant solutions under tight operational timelines. While specific contractor names are not publicly disclosed, Perez maintains a robust network of vendor partnerships grounded in responsiveness, technical adaptability, and compliance with DoD procurement standards. She engages with firms capable of delivering niche, low-volume, high-precision goods and services, frequently collaborating with small businesses that demonstrate deep domain expertise in special operations support. Her working relationships are characterized by proactive communication, iterative requirements development, and a strong emphasis on performance-based outcomes. Perez exhibits an unwavering commitment to small business participation, with 100% of her procurements structured as total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5. This reflects a deliberate strategy to foster innovation and capacity-building within the socioeconomic contracting ecosystem, prioritizing small disadvantaged businesses, service-disabled veteran-owned small businesses, and other eligible entities capable of meeting the unique demands of Naval Special Warfare missions. Her primary procurement focus lies in three specialized NAICS categories: All Other Miscellaneous Schools and Instruction (611699), Automobile Driving Schools (611692), and All Other Transportation Equipment Manufacturing (336999). These reflect her expertise in acquiring advanced tactical training programs, specialized watercraft and mobility platforms, and customized vehicle modifications for maritime special operations—domains requiring technical precision, regulatory compliance, and mission-specific customization.
