Tracy R. Scott

Tracy R. Scott serves as a Contract Specialist at the Naval Surface Warfare Center, Indian Head Division (N00174), where she manages the acquisition of critical ordnance systems, explosives, and precision instrumentation essential to naval warfare readiness. Her role encompasses the full lifecycle procurement of technical services and specialized manufacturing contracts, ensuring compliance with Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement (DFARS) and Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) requirements. Scott supports the agency’s mission to modernize munitions production and enhance weapon system reliability through strategically structured contracts for engineering, testing, and sustainment services. She maintains consistent working relationships with a select group of specialized vendors, including TOTAL CONCEPTS OF DESIGN INC, Boh Environmental, L.L.C., CHUCKING MACHINE PRODUCTS, INC., CANADIAN COMMERCIAL CORP, and DEVAL LIFE CYCLE SUPPORT LLC. These partnerships reflect a focus on niche manufacturers and technical service providers capable of delivering high-integrity components for explosive ordnance handling, guided missile subsystems, and advanced fabrication processes. Scott’s contracting approach emphasizes technical rigor, supply chain resilience, and performance-based outcomes. While the majority of her acquisitions—88.9%—are conducted without set-asides, she demonstrates a measured commitment to small business participation, with 11.1% of awards structured as total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5. Her socioeconomic contracting patterns prioritize capability over size, ensuring qualified small businesses with proven technical expertise in ordnance manufacturing are competitively engaged. Scott’s procurement portfolio is heavily concentrated in NAICS 336419 (guided missile and space vehicle parts), 332999 (miscellaneous fabricated metal products), 325920 (explosives manufacturing), and 332993 (ammunition manufacturing). Her domain expertise lies in high-hazard material handling, precision metal fabrication, and advanced propellant systems, reflecting deep technical alignment with the Navy’s ordnance modernization priorities.
