Stacie Prinkey serves as a key procurement professional within the Naval Air Systems Command (NAVAIR), supporting the acquisition and sustainment of critical naval aviation systems for the U.S. Navy and Marine Corps. She manages complex contract actions focused on the lifecycle management of aircraft components, avionics, and mission-critical support systems, ensuring operational readiness and technological superiority. Her work directly aligns with NAVAIR’s mission to modernize carrier-based and expeditionary air platforms, overseeing the full spectrum of contracting activities from solicitation to contract award and administration. Prinkey’s portfolio emphasizes high-technology aerospace systems requiring rigorous compliance with defense acquisition regulations and technical performance standards. She maintains consistent, long-term relationships with leading defense prime contractors including Sikorsky Aircraft Corporation, Lockheed Martin Corporation, and General Atomics, partnering with these firms to deliver advanced rotorcraft, unmanned aerial systems, and integrated weapon subsystems. Her contracting approach reflects a preference for established industry leaders with proven track records in aerospace engineering and systems integration, often leveraging Indefinite-Delivery/Indefinite-Quantity (IDIQ) and cost-reimbursement contract vehicles to accommodate evolving operational requirements and technical risk. Prinkey’s procurement portfolio exhibits no set-aside preferences, with 100% of awards issued under full and open competition. This reflects a strategic focus on technical capability and mission urgency over socioeconomic classifications, prioritizing performance, reliability, and system interoperability in a high-stakes operational environment. Her primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 336413 (Other Aircraft Parts and Auxiliary Equipment Manufacturing), where she acquires flight control systems, structural components, and mission-specific avionics hardware. She also engages in NAICS 334511 procurements for navigation, guidance, and sensor systems, demonstrating deep technical expertise in aerospace electronics and embedded systems integration essential for next-generation naval air platforms.
