Victoria Hill

Victoria Hill serves as a key procurement lead within Naval Sea Systems Command (NAVSEA), supporting the acquisition and lifecycle management of naval vessels and mission-critical maritime systems. She plays a central role in executing the agency’s strategic mission to sustain and modernize the U.S. Navy’s fleet through complex contract actions for shipbuilding, repair, and advanced naval electronics integration. Her portfolio primarily encompasses full-cycle acquisitions under NAICS 336611, covering new construction, mid-life upgrades, and system integration for surface and undersea platforms. She ensures compliance with Department of the Navy acquisition policies while aligning procurement decisions with fleet readiness objectives and technological innovation goals. Her primary contractor relationships include major defense prime contractors such as Huntington Ingalls Incorporated, Northrop Grumman Systems Corporation, Damen Shipbuilding & Cooperation B.V., G.S.E. Dynamics, Inc., and Aerospace & Commercial Technologies, LLC. These partnerships reflect a focus on large-scale shipbuilding and systems integration, with consistent engagement with established industry leaders capable of delivering complex, high-integrity naval platforms. Her contracting approach emphasizes performance-based outcomes, technical risk mitigation, and long-term sustainment planning, often involving multi-year, multi-phase contract structures. Victoria’s procurement strategy prioritizes open competition, with approximately 80% of awards issued without set-aside restrictions, reflecting the scale and technical complexity of naval shipbuilding requirements. However, she maintains a deliberate 20% commitment to Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5, ensuring meaningful opportunities for qualified small businesses in subsystems, specialized components, and support services that complement prime contractor efforts. Her technical domain expertise is singularly focused on NAICS 336611—Ship Building and Repairing—where she oversees the procurement of hull structures, propulsion systems, combat integration suites, and naval electronics. Her work ensures the Navy’s industrial base remains capable of delivering next-generation warships with enhanced survivability, stealth, and network-centric warfare capabilities.
