Alainah Robillard

Alainah Robillard serves as a Contract Specialist at the Technology Acquisition Center NJ (36C10B), part of the Department of Veterans Affairs, where she plays a pivotal role in executing mission-critical IT acquisitions that modernize the VA’s enterprise technology infrastructure. She manages the full lifecycle of procurements for complex, high-impact systems supporting clinical care, data interoperability, and cybersecurity across the national VA network. Her portfolio primarily consists of service-based contracts under NAICS 541512 and 541519, focusing on computer systems design, software modernization, and integrated IT solutions that enhance administrative efficiency and digital service delivery to veterans. Robillard maintains consistent procurement relationships with leading technology providers including Palantir Technologies Inc., AMD International Technologies LLC, Aerospace & Commercial Technologies, LLC, Greenbrier Government Solutions Inc., and Thundercat Technology, LLC. These partnerships reflect a preference for vendors with proven expertise in enterprise-scale systems integration, cloud-enabled platforms, and secure data analytics. Her contracting approach emphasizes performance-based outcomes, risk mitigation, and compliance with federal IT standards, fostering long-term vendor collaboration grounded in technical rigor and accountability. While the majority of her acquisitions—approximately 90%—are conducted as full and open competitions, she demonstrates a deliberate commitment to socioeconomic diversity by consistently setting aside 10% of opportunities for Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses (SDVOSB). This targeted approach aligns with VA’s mission to empower veteran entrepreneurs while ensuring access to high-caliber, mission-ready solutions. Her technical focus centers on computer systems design and related IT services, with deep expertise in procuring enterprise software modernization, system architecture development, and cybersecurity-enabled platforms. Robillard’s work directly supports the VA’s strategic priorities in digital transformation, ensuring that acquired technologies are scalable, interoperable, and compliant with federal information security frameworks.
