Teresita Q Untalan

Teresita Q. Untalan serves as a Contract Specialist with Naval Facilities Engineering Systems Command (NAVFAC) Marianas, where she plays a pivotal role in executing mission-critical procurement actions to sustain military infrastructure across Guam, the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands, and the Federated States of Micronesia. Responsible for the full lifecycle management of acquisitions, she specializes in complex hardware and facility support contracts aligned with NAVFAC’s mandate to ensure operational readiness through resilient, environmentally compliant infrastructure. Her portfolio primarily encompasses procurements under the NAICS 332510 category, focusing on the acquisition of specialized hardware systems essential to military facility operations, including electrical distribution components, control systems, and embedded hardware solutions. Untalan maintains consistent working relationships with key contractors including SEL Engineering Services, Inc., Schneider Electric Buildings Critical Systems, Inc., CDM Constructors Inc., and AMD International Technologies LLC. These partnerships reflect a preference for established, technically capable vendors with proven expertise in delivering mission-critical hardware and integrated facility systems. Her contracting approach emphasizes performance-based outcomes, technical compliance, and adherence to federal acquisition regulations, fostering long-term vendor collaboration grounded in reliability and quality assurance. Her procurement patterns reflect a 100% non-set-aside orientation, indicating a strategic focus on full and open competition to ensure access to the broadest possible pool of qualified technical providers. This approach prioritizes capability and compliance over socioeconomic set-asides, aligning with the specialized nature of the hardware systems she procures, which often require advanced engineering and certification standards not typically available within small business subsets. Her primary technical domain centers on NAICS 332510—Hardware Manufacturing—where she procures engineered electrical, mechanical, and control hardware systems vital to military base operations. This includes switchgear, power distribution units, building automation components, and other mission-critical hardware requiring rigorous testing, certification, and integration into existing infrastructure. Untalan’s expertise lies in navigating the intersection of defense standards, technical specifications, and supply chain reliability to deliver mission-sustaining capabilities.
