Navy SECNAV Chief Information Officer

The Department of the Navy Secretary of the Navy Chief Information Officer, a sub-agency within the Navy's information-technology command structure, procures information-technology services, software licenses, consulting, and telecommunications support to sustain naval enterprise systems and cyber capabilities. The office has awarded 188 contracts cumulatively since 1999, with combined potential value of $196.1 million and combined dollars obligated of $222.3 million. Recent activity has declined: the office closed 6 awards in 2022, 6 in 2023, 7 in 2024, 3 in 2025, and 1 year-to-date in 2026, with the most recently recorded award dated May 4, 2026.

Contract competition is highly fragmented on a by-count basis. Over the last five years, the top five primes by award count—Dell Marketing L.P., DLT Solutions LLC, and AT&T Mobility LLC (each 3 awards)—hold 57 percent of recent awards, but their combined potential value is negligible. Conversely, on a by-value basis the market is highly concentrated: Deloitte Consulting LLP, New TECH Solutions Inc., and Gartner Inc. collectively hold only 5 percent of combined potential value despite each earning a single large engagement in the $2.5 million to $2.9 million range. The agency transacts through 75 distinct prime contractors across the portfolio history, indicating a long tail of one-off or sporadic awardees. The office does not rely heavily on small-business set-asides: 88 percent of awards carry no set-aside designation, 5 percent are 8(a) sole-source awards, and 3 percent are total small-business set-asides.

The agency publishes no recent contract opportunities in the digest, and no grant activity is recorded against this office. Current activity volume is minimal; absent a shift in solicitation cadence or a recovery in award velocity, pursuit should focus on the consulting and software-licensing vendors already embedded in recent Navy IT modernization efforts rather than on new market entry.
