William Burger

William Burger serves as a Procurement Technician at the Naval Air Warfare Center (N68936), supporting the Department of the Navy’s mission to advance naval aviation systems through research, development, and evaluation of mission-critical technologies. In this role, he facilitates the acquisition of engineering services, avionics components, and specialized test equipment critical to airborne command and control, sensor integration, and mission simulation systems. His responsibilities include managing solicitation documentation, ensuring compliance with FAR and DFARS regulations, and coordinating with technical stakeholders to align procurement strategies with operational requirements. He primarily handles non-severable service contracts and hardware procurement for complex aerospace and electronic systems. Burger maintains consistent working relationships with key 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 support, systems integration, and technical testing services for naval aviation platforms. His procurement patterns reflect a preference for established industry partners with proven expertise in avionics, electronic warfare, and mission systems development, indicating a focus on reliability and technical capability over cost-only competition. His contracting activity shows a strong preference for unrestricted procurements, with 88.2% of awards issued without set-aside designations, reflecting the specialized and mission-critical nature of the technologies acquired. While small business participation is limited to 11.8%, it is primarily channeled through Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5, demonstrating selective but intentional inclusion of qualified small entities capable of meeting stringent technical demands. Burger’s procurement focus aligns with high-technology NAICS categories, including 541330 (Engineering Services), 541712 (R&D in Physical and Engineering Sciences), and 334413 (Semiconductor Manufacturing). He regularly procures advanced electronics, precision machine tools, computer peripheral systems, and specialized test equipment essential to next-generation naval aviation platforms, reflecting deep technical familiarity with aerospace and defense electronics supply chains.
