Yvonne Stockwell

Yvonne Stockwell serves as a Purchasing Agent at the Naval Air Warfare Center (N68936), where she plays a critical role in acquiring mission-critical technologies that support the development, testing, and evaluation of next-generation naval aviation systems. Her procurement activities focus on advanced electronics, avionics, communication systems, and software solutions essential to airborne command and control, sensor integration, and mission simulation. She manages a diverse portfolio of contracts aligned with the agency’s strategic priorities in modernizing air and maritime warfare capabilities, ensuring timely delivery of high-performance, defense-grade systems through compliant and efficient acquisition processes. Stockwell maintains consistent working relationships with leading defense and engineering contractors including Lockheed Martin Corporation, Jacobs Technology Inc., SAIC, Kranze Technology Solutions Inc., and Teya Support Services LLC. These partnerships are primarily non-set-aside, reflecting the technical complexity and scale of requirements for integrated aviation systems. Her contracting patterns emphasize established industry partners with proven expertise in aerospace engineering, systems integration, and technical services, fostering long-term collaboration to meet stringent performance and security standards. Her procurement approach is overwhelmingly aligned with open competition, with 99.1% of awards issued without set-aside designations. While small business participation is minimal, this reflects the specialized nature of the technologies procured, which often require Tier-1 capabilities in advanced electronics and defense systems engineering. Socioeconomic contracting preferences are not a primary driver, as acquisitions prioritize technical readiness and mission assurance over socioeconomic categorization. Her primary NAICS focus includes 511210 (Software Publishers), 334220 (Radio and Wireless Communications Equipment Manufacturing), and 541380 (Testing Laboratories), underscoring her specialization in procuring embedded software, RF and communications hardware, and independent verification and validation services. She routinely acquires semiconductor-based components, avionics test equipment, and mission-critical software development services, demonstrating deep technical fluency in naval aviation systems engineering domains.
