Stephen Page

Stephen Page serves as a key procurement lead within the Commanding Officer’s office (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, secure communications infrastructure, and advanced engineering services essential to maintaining fleet readiness. His portfolio emphasizes technical services supporting sensor integration, electronic assembly, and cybersecurity-enabled platforms, ensuring alignment with Navy aviation modernization priorities. He works closely with technical stakeholders to define requirements, evaluate vendor capabilities, and execute contracts under FAR and DFARS guidelines. His primary contractor relationships center on industry leaders such as Aerospace & Commercial Technologies, LLC, and Lockheed Martin Corporation, with whom he collaborates on high-complexity systems integration and sustainment contracts. These partnerships reflect a focus on established defense primes with proven expertise in aerospace and electronic systems, while maintaining a balanced approach to innovation through smaller, specialized vendors. His contracting patterns favor competitively awarded, performance-based agreements that prioritize technical rigor and operational reliability over sole-source procurement. While the majority of his acquisitions are conducted without set-asides (66.7%), he actively supports socioeconomic programs, awarding approximately 25% of contracts to small businesses, including 8(a) firms, Women-Owned Small Businesses, and Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5. His commitment to small business participation is demonstrated through targeted outreach and structured competition that encourages qualified niche providers to compete for technical service opportunities. His procurement focus is concentrated in professional and technical services, particularly NAICS 541611 (management consulting), 541990 (other technical services), and 541511 (custom computer programming), with significant activity in environmental consulting and software development. He specializes in acquiring engineering support, systems analysis, and mission-critical IT services that enable naval aviation command, control, and electronic warfare capabilities.
