Cheryl Roberts

Cheryl A. Roberts leads procurement activities for the Department of Veterans Affairs’ 244-NETWORK Contract Office 4 (36C244), where she manages complex acquisitions critical to modernizing VA healthcare infrastructure. Her role centers on securing advanced medical equipment, surgical supplies, and facility construction services to support clinical operations across VA medical centers and community-based outpatient clinics. She specializes in engineering and construction-related contracts, ensuring that procurement strategies align with the VA’s mission to deliver high-quality, accessible care to veterans through resilient, technologically advanced facilities. Roberts maintains sustained partnerships with key vendors including EXELAN PHARMACEUTICALS INC, RLS CONSTRUCTION GROUP, TRANS-MED AMBULANCE INC., HAMHED LLC, and FOREIGN POLICY RESEARCH INSTITUTE INC., reflecting a balanced portfolio of clinical, logistical, and advisory services. Her contracting patterns emphasize long-term vendor collaboration, particularly with firms capable of delivering integrated healthcare solutions, facility upgrades, and specialized medical logistics. She prioritizes contractors with proven expertise in federal healthcare compliance and mission-critical delivery timelines. Her procurement strategy is heavily oriented toward socioeconomic goals, with 75% of awards designated for Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses (SDVOSBs), demonstrating a robust commitment to veteran-owned enterprise development. The remaining 25% of acquisitions are non-set-aside, typically reserved for specialized services requiring unique technical capabilities not widely available among small businesses. This pattern underscores a deliberate effort to balance mission necessity with veteran economic empowerment. Roberts’ primary NAICS focus includes Engineering Services (541330) and Commercial and Institutional Building Construction (236220), with additional activity in Architectural Services (541310). She routinely procures clinical infrastructure upgrades, diagnostic equipment integration, and facility modernization projects requiring technical engineering oversight and construction management expertise, ensuring VA facilities meet stringent healthcare standards while supporting operational continuity.
