Claire Switzer

Claire Switzer serves as a procurement professional responsible for managing acquisitions critical to health services and facility operations. Her work supports the agency’s mission to deliver essential medical and administrative services through strategic contracting, with a focus on healthcare infrastructure, equipment supply chains, and support services. She typically handles competitive solicitations under the Federal Acquisition Regulation, overseeing requirements development, market research, and contract award processes for a diverse range of goods and services tied to clinical and operational needs. While no specific contractor relationships are identified in current data, Switzer’s procurement activity reflects a broad vendor ecosystem, including medical wholesalers, janitorial service providers, and specialty healthcare practitioners. Her approach emphasizes open competition and vendor diversity, engaging both large-scale distributors and small businesses across multiple sectors. Contracting patterns suggest a preference for transparent, full-and-open processes, with minimal reliance on sole-source or non-competitive mechanisms. Switzer’s set-aside profile reveals a strong orientation toward full-and-open competition, with 94.4% of awards issued without socioeconomic set-asides. The remaining 5.6% are allocated to 8(a) competed contracts, indicating a measured but deliberate commitment to small business participation. This pattern reflects a balanced approach—prioritizing value and efficiency while still creating targeted opportunities for disadvantaged businesses under the 8(a) program. Her primary NAICS focus centers on physician offices and miscellaneous health practitioner services, each accounting for 25% of activity, underscoring her expertise in clinical procurement. She also regularly acquires medical and dental equipment through merchant wholesalers, alongside janitorial services and industrial machinery suppliers. This combination highlights a technical domain grounded in healthcare delivery systems, facility maintenance, and supply chain logistics for medical environments.
