Virginia Dennison

Virginia Dennison serves as a Contract Specialist at the Naval Air Warfare Center (N68936), where she plays a pivotal role in executing complex acquisitions that support the development and integration of next-generation naval aviation systems. She manages the full lifecycle of contracts for mission-critical technologies including avionics, sensor systems, communications equipment, and mission planning software, ensuring alignment with the Center’s RDT&E objectives. Her work directly enables the modernization of airborne command and control platforms, electronic warfare systems, and high-reliability avionics architectures essential to naval air superiority. Dennison maintains consistent procurement relationships with leading defense and aerospace contractors including Lockheed Martin Corporation, Jacobs Technology Inc., SAIC, Kranze Technology Solutions Inc., and Teya Support Services LLC. These partnerships are primarily centered on engineering services, systems integration, and technical support for advanced electronic systems. Her contracting approach emphasizes performance-based outcomes, technical rigor, and long-term vendor collaboration to sustain mission readiness and technological innovation across naval aviation programs. Her procurement patterns reflect a strong preference for full and open competition, with 99.3% of her acquisitions conducted without set-aside restrictions. While small business participation is minimal in her portfolio, she adheres to statutory requirements and occasionally incorporates small business subcontracting through prime contractor performance plans, though direct awards to 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB firms remain infrequent. Dennison’s primary NAICS focus areas include 511210 (Software Publishers) for mission-critical software development, 334220 for wireless communications equipment, and 334519 for specialized measuring and control instrumentation. Her technical domain expertise spans avionics integration, electronic signal testing, and embedded computing systems, making her a key conduit for procuring high-assurance technologies that underpin naval air warfare capabilities.
