Ryley Fages serves as the primary contracting lead for the Naval Facilities Engineering Systems Command (NAVFAC) Systems and Experimental Warfare Center, overseeing the acquisition of specialized engineering and scientific services critical to advancing naval operational readiness. Responsible for managing complex technical procurements, Fages focuses on securing cutting-edge solutions in maritime systems development, ocean infrastructure resilience, and explosive effects analysis. Their procurement portfolio centers on high-stakes, mission-critical contracts that support experimental warfare technologies and naval installation sustainability, ensuring alignment with the Department of the Navy’s innovation and readiness objectives. Fages maintains consistent partnerships with a select group of technical contractors, including Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution for oceanographic research, Sociedad Española de Montajes Industriales SA for industrial equipment maintenance, and Emerging Compounds Treatment Technologies, Inc. for environmental remediation systems. These relationships reflect a preference for niche, high-expertise vendors capable of delivering specialized engineering, scientific, and technical support services. Collaborations are typically long-term and performance-driven, emphasizing technical rigor, compliance with naval standards, and adaptability to evolving experimental warfare requirements. Fages does not utilize socioeconomic set-asides, with 100% of procurements conducted under full and open competition. This reflects a mission-driven focus on technical capability over socioeconomic preferences, prioritizing the most qualified providers regardless of business size or certification status. While small business participation is not formally incentivized, vendors are selected strictly on technical merit, past performance, and domain expertise. The primary NAICS classification for Fages’ portfolio is 811310—Commercial and Industrial Machinery and Equipment (except Automotive and Electronic) Repair and Maintenance—indicating a strong focus on sustaining and upgrading complex naval infrastructure systems. Procurements include maintenance of experimental test facilities, oceanographic instrumentation, and industrial-scale equipment critical to naval research and development operations. Their expertise lies in technical domains requiring precision engineering, environmental compliance, and systems integration for maritime defense applications.
