Dale E. Aubin serves as a Contract Specialist with the 241-NETWORK Contract Office 01 (36C241) under the Department of Veterans Affairs, where he plays a pivotal role in procuring critical infrastructure and operational systems that sustain VA medical center functionality. His responsibilities encompass the full lifecycle of acquisition activities—from market research and solicitation development to contract award and administration—for projects supporting healthcare facility modernization, environmental systems, and electromedical infrastructure. Aubin specializes in complex construction and professional services contracts, ensuring compliance with federal procurement regulations while aligning acquisitions with the VA’s mission to deliver reliable, high-quality care environments for veterans. Aubin maintains consistent working relationships with a select group of contractors including EPERNAY DESIGN & CONSTRUCTION LLC, MCKENZIE CONSTRUCTION & SITE DEVELOPMENT LLC, P.D.S. CONSULTANTS, INC., L1 ENTERPRISES INCORPORATED, and SOUTH MIDDLESEX OPPORTUNITY COUNCIL, INC. These partnerships reflect a focus on experienced firms capable of delivering specialized construction, engineering, and architectural services under stringent federal standards. His procurement approach emphasizes performance-based outcomes, risk mitigation, and contractor accountability, fostering long-term collaboration with vendors who demonstrate technical competence and regulatory compliance. While the majority of his acquisitions—84.6%—are conducted without set-asides, Aubin consistently prioritizes Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) participation, accounting for 15.4% of awards. This reflects a deliberate commitment to advancing socioeconomic goals within the VA’s procurement ecosystem, ensuring opportunities for veteran-owned enterprises in infrastructure and facility support markets. His technical focus centers on NAICS codes 237110 (Water and Sewer Line Construction), 236220 (Commercial and Institutional Building Construction), and 541310/541330 (Architectural and Engineering Services). Aubin’s expertise lies in procuring facility upgrades, utility system modernization, and design-engineering support essential to maintaining clinical-grade environments in VA medical centers nationwide.
