Cheryl Mercado serves in a secondary role within the agency's procurement framework, supporting the acquisition mission through the management of diverse technical and industrial requirements. The agency demonstrates a varied approach to set-aside preferences, with a significant portion of contracts designated as no set-aside.

The agency's procurement focus is concentrated across several specialized technical domains. Primary industry focus areas include industrial gas manufacturing and electronic and precision equipment repair and maintenance. Additionally, the office procures services related to other computer-related services, surgical appliance and supplies manufacturing, and medical laboratory operations.
