Raymond Chang

Raymond Chang serves as a key procurement lead for the Commanding Officer (N63394) under the Department of the Navy, responsible for managing acquisitions that sustain and modernize naval aviation and electronic warfare systems. He oversees the procurement of mission-critical aerospace components, advanced electronic assemblies, and engineering services essential to maintaining operational readiness of aircraft platforms and cyber-enabled communications infrastructure. His portfolio centers on technical contracts requiring rigorous compliance with defense acquisition regulations, with a focus on engineering design, printed circuit assembly, and integrated system integration services that support next-generation naval air systems. Chang maintains strategic relationships with leading defense contractors, primarily AEROSPACE & COMMERCIAL TECHNOLOGIES, LLC and LOCKHEED MARTIN CORPORATION, who deliver high-assurance electronic systems and mission-critical engineering solutions. His contracting approach emphasizes long-term partnerships with established defense primes capable of meeting stringent military specifications for reliability, cybersecurity, and supply chain integrity. While major contractors dominate award volume, he actively engages a broader base of specialized vendors to ensure technical innovation and contingency supply resilience. His procurement strategy prioritizes open competition, with 83.3% of awards issued under no set-aside conditions, reflecting the technical complexity and national security sensitivity of the requirements. Nevertheless, he consistently allocates 16.7% of contracts to Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5, demonstrating a measured commitment to small business participation without compromising mission-critical performance standards. Chang’s primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 541330 (Engineering Services), which accounts for nearly 78% of his portfolio, encompassing systems engineering, avionics integration, and test and evaluation support. He also procures specialized electronic assembly (NAICS 334418), computer peripheral manufacturing (NAICS 334118), and electrical installation services (NAICS 238210), reflecting a multidisciplinary approach to sustaining complex naval platforms. His expertise spans the full lifecycle of electronic warfare systems, from prototype development to fielded configuration control, ensuring technical alignment with Navy aviation modernization priorities.
