Chris Weider

Christopher Weider serves as a Contract Specialist for the 242-NETWORK Contract Office 02 (36C242) within the Department of Veterans Affairs, where he plays a pivotal role in executing procurement actions that sustain and modernize critical healthcare infrastructure for veterans. He manages a diverse portfolio of contracts focused on facility renovations, clinical equipment maintenance, and essential support services, ensuring VA medical centers operate with operational readiness and technological compliance. His work directly supports the agency’s mission to deliver safe, reliable, and high-quality care through strategic acquisition of physical and technical resources. Weider maintains consistent contracting relationships with key contractors including MCKENZIE CONSTRUCTION & SITE DEVELOPMENT LLC, AMD INTERNATIONAL TECHNOLOGIES LLC, SAWTOOTH CONSTRUCTION JV II LLC, ASSISTED TRANSPORTATION CORP, and J & J MECHANICAL AND CONSTRUCTION GROUP LLC. These partnerships reflect a focus on integrated facility services, specialized equipment repair, and mission-critical logistics, with a preference for contractors demonstrating proven performance in federal healthcare environments. His procurement approach emphasizes performance-based outcomes, rigorous contract administration, and long-term vendor reliability. While the majority of his acquisitions are conducted as no set-aside procurements (72.1%), Weider demonstrates a strong commitment to socioeconomic programs, with nearly one-fifth of awards reserved for Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses (SDVOSB) and an additional 8.8% allocated under total small business set-asides. This pattern underscores his alignment with VA’s mandate to prioritize veteran-owned enterprises while maintaining competitive, high-performance contracting. His technical focus centers on NAICS 811310 (commercial and industrial machinery maintenance), 238220 (plumbing, heating, and HVAC contracting), and 811210 (electronic equipment repair), reflecting deep expertise in facility systems, clinical equipment lifecycle support, and environmental compliance services. Weider’s portfolio reveals a specialization in mission-critical infrastructure sustainment, blending technical oversight with strategic procurement to uphold the integrity of VA’s healthcare delivery network.
