Dana Seeler

Dana Seeler serves as the primary point of contact for the Technology Acquisition Center NJ (36C10B), a mission-critical unit within the Department of Veterans Affairs responsible for modernizing enterprise IT infrastructure to support clinical, administrative, and cybersecurity operations across the VA network. In this role, Seeler facilitates the acquisition of complex technology solutions, including enterprise software platforms, data integration systems, and secure cloud-enabled services that enhance veteran care delivery. They coordinate across technical, legal, and programmatic stakeholders to ensure procurements align with federal acquisition regulations and VA strategic modernization goals, with a focus on scalable, interoperable, and secure digital architectures. Seeler maintains consistent working relationships with key contractors including Palantir Technologies Inc., AMD International Technologies LLC, Aerospace & Commercial Technologies, LLC, Greenbrier Government Solutions Inc., and Thundercat Technology, LLC. These partnerships reflect a preference for vendors with proven expertise in data analytics, cybersecurity, systems integration, and mission-critical IT modernization. The working relationship is characterized by structured collaboration, rigorous compliance oversight, and a focus on delivering high-assurance solutions that meet VA’s stringent security and performance standards. Set-aside preferences are overwhelmingly aligned with open competition, with 93.5% of acquisitions conducted without socioeconomic set-asides. Service-disabled veteran-owned small businesses receive limited but targeted consideration at 4.3%, while total small business set-asides account for 2.2%, indicating a procurement strategy prioritizing broad market competition over mandated preferences, though still accommodating small business participation where feasible. The procurement portfolio is notably concentrated in manufacturing-related NAICS codes, particularly 339113 (Surgical Appliance and Supplies Manufacturing) and 339112 (Surgical and Medical Instrument Manufacturing), alongside 334510 (Electromedical and Electrotherapeutic Apparatus) and 334516 (Analytical Laboratory Instrument Manufacturing). These reflect a specialized focus on procuring medical-grade hardware, diagnostic equipment, and associated software systems that interface with VA’s clinical and data infrastructure, demonstrating technical expertise at the intersection of healthcare technology and enterprise IT.
