Suzanne LaMonica

Suzanne LaMonica serves as a Contract Document Analyst at the Southeast Regional Maintenance Center (N40027), a key facility within the Department of Defense responsible for sustaining the U.S. Navy’s surface fleet through dry-docking, structural overhauls, and system modernization. In her role, she ensures the accuracy, compliance, and integrity of procurement documentation across the full lifecycle of ship repair and maintenance contracts. She supports the agency’s mission by facilitating the preparation, review, and archiving of solicitation packages, contract modifications, and technical specifications aligned with FAR and DFARS requirements, enabling timely and legally sound acquisition decisions for critical naval infrastructure projects. While specific contractor names are not publicly disclosed, Suzanne collaborates closely with a diverse pool of vendors specializing in naval shipbuilding, marine engineering, and dry-dock services. Her work involves coordinating with prime contractors, subcontractors, and technical specialists to ensure contractual deliverables meet stringent Navy standards for hull integrity, machinery upgrades, and combat system integration. She maintains a process-driven partnership model, emphasizing documentation transparency and regulatory adherence to support mission-critical maintenance timelines. Suzanne’s procurement portfolio reflects a strong preference for open competition, with 83.3% of acquisitions conducted without set-asides, while 16.7% are structured as Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5. This balance demonstrates a strategic commitment to fostering small business participation without compromising operational urgency or technical capability, aligning with DoD’s broader goals for industrial base resilience. Her primary procurement focus is on NAICS 336611—Ship Building and Repairing—accounting for 91.7% of her activities, encompassing structural repairs, propulsion system overhauls, and corrosion control. The remaining 8.3% involves NAICS 488310, covering port and harbor support services essential to dry-dock operations. Suzanne’s expertise lies in managing complex, technical acquisitions requiring deep familiarity with naval vessel systems and defense industrial supply chains.
