Andrea L. Giuliano

Andrea L. Giuliano serves as a Contracting Officer at the Naval Medical Logistics Command (N62645), where she plays a pivotal role in securing mission-critical medical equipment and diagnostic systems to sustain the readiness of U.S. Navy and Marine Corps medical forces worldwide. Responsible for end-to-end acquisition lifecycle management, she executes complex procurements under FAR and DFARS frameworks, focusing on high-stakes, time-sensitive contracts for surgical instruments, point-of-care diagnostics, and life-sustaining medical supplies. Her work directly supports combat casualty care and advanced clinical operations in austere environments, ensuring that frontline medical units are equipped with reliable, FDA-compliant technologies. Giuliano collaborates with a diverse base of manufacturers and medical technology providers, primarily those specializing in precision surgical instruments and diagnostic imaging systems. While no single contractor dominates her portfolio, she maintains consistent relationships with firms possessing robust quality assurance systems, ISO 13485 certification, and defense supply chain experience. Her contracting approach emphasizes performance-based outcomes, technical compliance, and supply chain resilience, favoring vendors with proven track records in delivering ruggedized, military-spec medical hardware under stringent regulatory and logistical constraints. Her acquisition strategy reflects a strong preference for full and open competition, with 100% of her procurements conducted without set-asides, indicating a focus on technical capability over socioeconomic categorization. This approach prioritizes mission necessity and performance over socioeconomic preferences, aligning with the command’s urgent operational demands and the specialized nature of the equipment procured. Giuliano’s primary procurement focus lies within NAICS 339112 (Surgical and Medical Instrument Manufacturing), where she acquires sterile, reusable, and single-use surgical tools, as well as NAICS 621512 (Diagnostic Imaging Centers), supporting the integration of portable and deployable imaging systems. Her technical expertise spans medical device classification, regulatory pathways, and military specification standards, making her a key steward of clinical readiness through precision procurement.
