Aaron Moses serves as a procurement professional within the Virginia Department of Health, supporting the agency’s mission to safeguard public health through strategic acquisition of essential services. In his capacity as a SLED (State, Local, and Tribal) contracting specialist, he manages the solicitation, evaluation, and award of contracts aligned with operational continuity and workforce support. His primary focus is on securing temporary staffing solutions to sustain critical public health functions, including disease surveillance, immunization programs, and environmental health inspections. Moses ensures compliance with state and federal procurement regulations while aligning acquisitions with the department’s strategic priorities in infrastructure resilience and community-based care. While no specific contractor relationships are currently documented in the procurement record, Moses engages with a broad spectrum of qualified vendors specializing in temporary and contract labor services. His procurement approach emphasizes vendor reliability, workforce scalability, and rapid onboarding to meet fluctuating public health demands. He maintains a vendor-neutral stance, prioritizing capability, compliance, and service quality over longstanding vendor relationships, fostering a competitive and transparent acquisition environment. Moses demonstrates a strong preference for open competition, with 100% of his acquisitions issued without set-aside designations. This reflects a strategic decision to maximize vendor participation and ensure the broadest possible access to qualified temporary staffing providers. While he does not currently prioritize 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB set-asides, his procurement framework remains fully compliant with all socioeconomic regulations and supports equitable opportunity through unrestricted competition. His primary procurement focus is on NAICS 561320 (Temporary Help Services), reflecting a deep specialization in staffing solutions for public health operations. He routinely procures clinical support staff, epidemiological assistants, environmental health technicians, and administrative personnel to bolster workforce capacity across local health districts. His technical expertise lies in aligning labor contracts with public health service delivery models, ensuring staffing aligns with regulatory requirements and operational timelines.
