Theresa M Boswell

Theresa M. Boswell serves as Program Manager at the Naval Air Systems Command (NAVAIR), where she oversees the acquisition and lifecycle management of critical naval aviation systems. In this role, she leads end-to-end contracting initiatives for aircraft support infrastructure, maintenance logistics, and mission-critical aviation services, ensuring alignment with the Navy and Marine Corps’ operational readiness goals. Her portfolio centers on sustaining and modernizing carrier-based and expeditionary air platforms, with a focus on integrated avionics, flight training systems, and sustainment logistics. Boswell plays a pivotal role in translating operational requirements into executable contract strategies that support NAVAIR’s mission of maintaining air superiority through technologically advanced, reliable aviation systems. She maintains enduring partnerships with leading defense aerospace prime contractors, including Sikorsky Aircraft Corporation, Lockheed Martin Corporation, and General Atomics, leveraging their expertise in aircraft design, weapons integration, and unmanned aerial systems. Her contracting approach emphasizes performance-based outcomes, systems engineering support, and long-term sustainment agreements, often involving complex technical deliverables and integrated logistics solutions. These relationships are characterized by sustained collaboration, technical alignment, and iterative contract modifications to meet evolving operational needs. Boswell’s procurement portfolio reflects a strong preference for full and open competition, with 100% of her awards issued without set-aside designations. This indicates a strategic focus on maximizing technical capability and industrial base efficiency rather than socioeconomic targeting, consistent with the high-stakes, mission-critical nature of naval aviation systems. Her primary procurement activity falls under NAICS 488190—Other Support Activities for Air Transportation—encompassing aircraft maintenance, flight operations support, avionics repair, and training logistics services. She specializes in procuring technical services that enable fleet readiness, including ground support equipment, flight simulators, and sustainment supply chain management, demonstrating deep expertise in aviation logistics and defense systems integration.
