William Weinig

William Weinig serves as a Procuring Contracting Officer at the Naval Air Warfare Center Air Division, where he leads the acquisition of mission-critical aviation systems essential to maintaining air superiority and fleet readiness. He is responsible for managing the full lifecycle of complex defense contracts, from requirements validation and market research through solicitation, evaluation, award, and contract administration. His portfolio centers on advanced airborne subsystems including avionics, electronic warfare suites, communications networks, and mission-critical aircraft integration, all aligned with the Division’s strategic modernization goals. Weinig’s expertise lies in high-stakes, technically demanding procurements that support next-generation naval aviation platforms and sustainment of legacy systems. Weinig maintains enduring relationships with a core group of prime contractors including SABRE SYSTEMS, LLC, THE BOEING COMPANY, SCIENCE APPLICATIONS INTERNATIONAL CORPORATION, SYSTEMS PLANNING AND ANALYSIS, INC., and ONTIC ENGINEERING & MANUFACTURING, INC. These partnerships reflect a preference for established defense aerospace primes and specialized engineering firms with proven capabilities in airborne system integration, sensor development, and systems engineering. His contracting approach emphasizes technical rigor, performance-based outcomes, and long-term sustainment support, fostering collaborative relationships grounded in compliance, innovation, and mission alignment. Weinig’s procurement activity is exclusively non-set-aside, with 100% of awards issued under full and open competition. This reflects a strategic focus on accessing the broadest possible pool of technical expertise required for highly specialized aviation systems, rather than socioeconomic set-asides. While small business participation is not formally prioritized through set-aside mechanisms, he ensures compliance with all applicable small business subcontracting requirements and encourages prime contractors to leverage qualified small business partners in performance. His primary acquisition focus is on NAICS 336411 (Aircraft Manufacturing), encompassing the development, modification, and integration of advanced aircraft subsystems. He procures complex hardware and software solutions including radar and electronic attack systems, mission computers, data links, and embedded flight control technologies—all critical to the Navy’s airborne warfare and surveillance capabilities. His domain expertise lies at the intersection of aerospace engineering and defense systems acquisition, ensuring technical solutions meet rigorous military specifications and operational requirements.
