Victor M. Mariscal serves as a Contract Specialist at the Southwest Regional Maintenance Center (N55236), a key operational unit within the Department of the Navy responsible for sustaining naval vessel readiness. In this role, he manages the full lifecycle of procurement actions for industrial and shipyard support services, ensuring compliance with federal acquisition regulations and aligning contracting strategies with fleet modernization goals. His portfolio primarily encompasses shipbuilding and repair contracts, alongside critical infrastructure and industrial equipment acquisitions, requiring deep technical understanding of naval engineering requirements and maintenance logistics. Mariscal maintains established working relationships with a core group of contractors specializing in shipyard services, including W. V. Construction Company, Turn Key Scaffolding LLC, and Premier Scaffolding, Inc., for structural and maintenance support. He also collaborates regularly with Fairbanks Morse, LLC, for propulsion and auxiliary equipment, and The Sherwin-Williams Company for protective coating systems. These partnerships reflect a preference for vendors with proven expertise in naval industrial environments, emphasizing reliability, regulatory compliance, and technical proficiency in marine-grade applications. A strong advocate for small business participation, Mariscal consistently prioritizes Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5, directing approximately 70% of his acquisitions to small businesses.

His primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 336611 (Ship Building and Repairing), accounting for 75% of his activity, with supplementary needs in janitorial services, architectural design, nonresidential leasing, and machine tool manufacturing. This specialized focus underscores his expertise in complex industrial procurement environments where technical specifications, safety standards, and vessel availability timelines are paramount.
