Tiana Hammaker

Tiana Hammaker serves as a key procurement professional within the Naval Supply Systems Command Weapon Systems Support Mechanism (N00104), supporting the operational readiness of U.S. Navy weapon systems through the acquisition of mission-critical mechanical and electro-mechanical components. She manages contracts for high-reliability parts essential to the maintenance, repair, and modernization of naval platforms, with a focus on precision machinery, valve assemblies, bearing systems, and electrical subsystems. Her work ensures the sustained functionality of complex naval weapon systems by securing components that meet stringent military specifications and quality assurance standards. Hammaker maintains consistent contracting relationships with industry leaders such as Raytheon Company and The Entwistle Company LLC, alongside specialized suppliers like AMD International Technologies LLC. These partnerships reflect a preference for established defense contractors with proven track records in manufacturing precision mechanical components and mission-critical subsystems under strict DoD compliance frameworks. Her procurement approach prioritizes reliability, traceability, and supply chain resilience, often leveraging long-term contractual arrangements with vendors capable of supporting lifecycle sustainment requirements. Her contracting activity is overwhelmingly non-set-aside, with 95.4% of awards issued under full and open competition, indicating a primary focus on technical capability over socioeconomic preferences. While small business set-asides account for only 4.6% of awards, she remains compliant with FAR requirements and occasionally engages qualified small businesses when their technical expertise aligns with niche component needs. Hammaker’s procurement focus centers on NAICS 332722 (fastener manufacturing), 333998 (miscellaneous machinery), and 332991 (bearing manufacturing), reflecting deep expertise in mechanical subsystems critical to naval platforms. She regularly procures ball and roller bearings, valve and pipe fittings, and specialized metal components engineered for high-vibration, corrosive, and extreme-environment applications, demonstrating specialized knowledge in defense-grade mechanical systems integration.
