Tiffany Jackson

Tiffany Jackson serves as a key procurement professional within DLA Maritime – Norfolk, supporting the U.S. Navy’s global fleet readiness through the acquisition of mission-critical current-carrying wiring devices and associated electrical infrastructure components. Her work directly enables the reliability and operational integrity of shipboard systems, including control instrumentation, power distribution panels, and marine-grade electrical hardware designed to withstand extreme maritime environments. She manages the full lifecycle of contract actions—from requirements validation and market research to solicitation, award, and performance monitoring—ensuring compliance with federal acquisition regulations and naval technical specifications. Jackson maintains consistent working relationships with a focused group of contractors, including Allied Defense Industries, LLC, TAZA SUPPLIES INC, and GOVAGE, INC., all of which specialize in precision-engineered electrical components for naval applications. These partnerships reflect a preference for vendors with proven expertise in military-grade wiring devices, ruggedized connectors, and certified marine electrical systems. Her contracting approach emphasizes technical alignment, supply chain resilience, and timely delivery to support scheduled ship maintenance and modernization cycles. She exhibits a strict commitment to small business participation, directing 100% of her acquisitions toward total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5. This reflects a deliberate strategy to foster innovation and capacity within the small business industrial base, ensuring equitable access to defense procurement opportunities for firms capable of meeting stringent naval electrical standards. Her procurement focus is exclusively centered on NAICS 335931—Current-Carrying Wiring Device Manufacturing—encompassing circuit breakers, terminal blocks, switchgear, and insulated conductors certified for naval use. Jackson’s technical expertise lies in ensuring that all procured items meet MIL-SPEC and IEEE standards for durability, corrosion resistance, and electromagnetic compatibility in high-vibration, saltwater-exposed environments.
