Tracie Griner

Tracie Griner serves as a key procurement professional within the Naval Supply Systems Command Fleet Logistics Center Jacksonville, supporting the operational readiness of the U.S. Navy through the acquisition of mission-critical logistics, maintenance, and support services. She manages a diverse portfolio of contracts focused on sustaining naval infrastructure and fleet operations, ensuring timely delivery of essential goods and services to ships, shore facilities, and embarked personnel. Her acquisitions span a broad range of technical and logistical domains, with emphasis on food services, industrial support, and specialized engineering solutions that directly enable naval platform sustainment and crew welfare. Griner maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of contractors including Stronghold SOF Solutions LLC, Gemini Tech Services LLC, Emerald Isle Federal Services, LLC, First Division Consulting Inc., and Curtiss-Wright Electro-Mechanical Corp. These partnerships reflect a preference for established vendors with proven capabilities in naval logistics, technical support, and electro-mechanical system maintenance. Her contracting approach emphasizes performance reliability, compliance with Navy-specific technical standards, and long-term vendor collaboration to ensure continuity of service across complex operational environments. While the majority of her acquisitions—approximately 90%—are conducted without set-asides, Griner demonstrates a deliberate commitment to small business participation, with roughly 10% of her portfolio allocated to Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5. This reflects a strategic balance between leveraging established industry capacity and fostering opportunities for qualified small businesses, though no specific socioeconomic categories such as 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB dominate her award patterns. Her primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 722310 (Food Service Contractors) and 561990 (All Other Support Services), reflecting the agency’s emphasis on crew sustenance and broad-based logistical support. Additional emphasis is placed on industrial gas manufacturing, apparel contracting for naval uniforms, and shipbuilding and repair services, underscoring her technical expertise in sustaining both personnel and platform readiness across the fleet.
