Shanah Pendleton

Raushanah L. Pendleton serves as a Contract Specialist at Naval Supply Systems Command Fleet Logistics Center San Diego (NAVSUP FLC San Diego), where she plays a pivotal role in executing mission-critical acquisitions that sustain U.S. Navy aviation, surface, and shore-based systems. She manages the full lifecycle of procurement actions for technical and logistical services, with a focus on avionics, test instrumentation, and specialized training solutions. Her work directly supports operational readiness by ensuring timely delivery of high-integrity equipment and services essential to naval warfare systems. Pendleton routinely handles complex contract types including firm-fixed-price and cost-reimbursement arrangements under FAR and DFARS guidelines, often coordinating with engineering and logistics teams to align acquisition strategies with technical requirements. Pendleton maintains consistent working relationships with a select group of experienced contractors, including Dunbar Airshows LLC, MCKENZIE CONSTRUCTION & SITE DEVELOPMENT LLC, CHESAPEAKE MARINE, LLC, THE JANKOVICH COMPANY, LLC, and PERGRAVIS LLC. These partnerships reflect a preference for vendors with proven expertise in niche technical domains, from marine support services to specialized instrumentation and communications equipment. Her contracting patterns emphasize reliability, compliance, and performance-based outcomes, fostering long-term vendor collaboration grounded in quality and accountability. Her procurement approach prioritizes broad market access, with 73.9% of awards issued without set-aside, while maintaining a meaningful commitment to small business participation—21.7% of contracts are total small business set-asides, and 4.3% are reserved for service-disabled veteran-owned small businesses. This balance reflects a strategic alignment with federal socioeconomic goals without compromising mission-critical delivery timelines. Pendleton’s primary NAICS focus areas include 334220 (radio and wireless communications equipment), 334515 (electrical signal measurement instrumentation), and 334111 (electronic computer manufacturing), underscoring her technical specialization in naval avionics, test and measurement systems, and digital infrastructure. She regularly procures mission-critical hardware, calibration services, and training solutions that support modernization and sustainment of Navy combat systems.
