Victoria Purcell

Victoria Purcell serves as a key procurement professional within Navsup Weapon Systems Support, supporting the Department of the Navy’s mission to sustain and modernize naval aviation and weapon systems. She manages the acquisition of mission-critical components, including precision measuring and controlling devices and bare printed circuit boards essential to avionics, power systems, and electronic warfare platforms. Her work directly enables the readiness of legacy and next-generation naval aircraft by ensuring timely access to high-reliability electronic subsystems and specialized instrumentation. Purcell handles complex sole-source and competitive procurements under FAR and DFARS guidelines, often coordinating with engineering and logistics teams to align acquisition strategy with technical requirements and lifecycle sustainment needs. Her contractor relationships are primarily with specialized manufacturers in the electronics and precision instrumentation sectors, including firms capable of meeting military specifications for environmental ruggedization, traceability, and quality control. While no single contractor dominates her portfolio, she consistently engages with vendors possessing AS9100 and ITAR certifications, emphasizing supply chain integrity and technical compliance. Her procurement approach favors established suppliers with proven track records in defense-grade manufacturing, particularly those with experience in low-volume, high-precision production runs. Purcell’s contracting activity is entirely non-set-aside, with 100% of acquisitions conducted under full and open competition. This reflects a strategic focus on technical capability and supply chain resilience over socioeconomic preferences, prioritizing performance, quality, and delivery timelines in a domain where mission-critical failures are not an option. Her primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 334519 (Other Measuring and Controlling Device Manufacturing) and 334412 (Bare Printed Circuit Board Manufacturing), targeting advanced sensors, control modules, and unpopulated circuit substrates used in radar, navigation, and flight control systems. She possesses deep technical familiarity with MIL-STD-810, IPC-A-610, and JEDEC standards, ensuring all procured components meet the rigorous environmental and electrical performance demands of naval aviation environments.
