Tonya Woodford McLean

Tonya Woodford McLean serves as a Contracting Officer for the Commander (M00264) under the Department of the Navy, where she plays a pivotal role in acquiring mission-critical professional and technical services that sustain and modernize naval warfighting capabilities. She manages the full lifecycle of acquisitions for command and control systems, tactical computing environments, and cyber-enabled decision support tools, ensuring alignment with operational readiness objectives. Her portfolio emphasizes systems engineering, integration, and specialized technical support services critical to maintaining naval superiority in contested domains. McLean maintains consistent partnerships with a core group of contractors including GOLDBELT HAWK L.L.C., ALEX-ALTERNATIVE EXPERTS, LLC, TNDA TECHNOLOGIES INC., BC MARKET SOLUTIONS LLC, and BIOSPACE, INC., all of which provide specialized expertise in defense-oriented technical services. Her contracting patterns reflect a preference for agile, responsive vendors capable of delivering rapid prototyping, systems integration, and mission-specific analytical support. These relationships are characterized by recurring task order awards under indefinite-delivery, indefinite-quantity (IDIQ) vehicles, fostering long-term collaboration on evolving operational requirements. A staunch advocate for small business participation, McLean directs 100% of her acquisitions toward Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5, ensuring equitable access for small businesses without requiring subcontracting plans. Her commitment to socioeconomic contracting reinforces the Navy’s broader goal of cultivating a resilient, diverse supplier base capable of supporting niche defense technologies. Her primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 541990 (All Other Professional, Scientific, and Technical Services), where she secures advanced engineering, systems analysis, and mission support services, with a secondary emphasis on NAICS 541430 (Graphic Design Services) for visualization and training materials. She specializes in procuring technical services that enhance situational awareness, data fusion, and human-machine teaming across naval platforms.
