Shannon Rolince

Shannon Rolince serves as a key procurement professional within Mschq Norfolk, operating under the Department of the Navy, where they manage acquisitions critical to sustaining the operational readiness of U.S. Navy surface and auxiliary vessels. Their responsibilities encompass the end-to-end procurement of mission-critical marine logistics, maintenance services, and technical consulting solutions that directly support fleet sustainment and maritime transportation operations. Rolince specializes in complex service-based contracts requiring high technical precision, particularly in areas involving ship repair, deep-sea freight logistics, and specialized equipment maintenance, ensuring alignment with naval operational timelines and regulatory compliance standards. Rolince maintains consistent working relationships with a select group of prime contractors, including EXXONMOBIL MARINE LIMITED for marine fuel and logistics support, VIGOR MARINE LLC for vessel repair and maintenance, BOOZ ALLEN HAMILTON INC for strategic logistics consulting, FOREIGN POLICY RESEARCH INSTITUTE INC for operational analysis and maritime policy advisory services, and ONTIC ENGINEERING & MANUFACTURING, INC for specialized marine equipment fabrication and repair. These partnerships reflect a preference for established, technically capable vendors with proven experience in naval environments and a track record of delivering mission-critical solutions under stringent operational constraints. Rolince’s contracting activity shows no use of socioeconomic set-asides, with 100% of awards issued under full and open competition. This pattern indicates a procurement strategy prioritizing technical capability, mission urgency, and vendor performance history over socioeconomic preferences, reflecting the specialized and time-sensitive nature of naval sustainment requirements. The primary procurement focus aligns with NAICS 541380 (Testing Laboratories and Services), 541614 (Process, Physical Distribution, and Logistics Consulting Services), and 811310 (Commercial and Industrial Machinery and Equipment Repair and Maintenance), each representing approximately one-third of activity. This reflects deep expertise in procuring technical testing, maritime logistics optimization, and heavy machinery maintenance services essential to maintaining naval fleet readiness in austere environments.
