Dawn D. Windham

Dawn D. Windham serves as a key procurement professional within the Defense Health Agency’s DHA Enterprise Medical Support (EMS-CD), supporting the modernization of clinical and administrative health IT systems for military medical operations. She manages the acquisition of enterprise software and ambulatory health services critical to operational readiness, ensuring secure, scalable, and interoperable digital infrastructure across the Department of Defense’s healthcare ecosystem. Her portfolio centers on complex IT modernization initiatives and non-physician ambulatory care support services, aligning with the agency’s mission to enhance data-driven decision-making and clinical efficiency through robust digital solutions. Windham engages with a broad spectrum of vendors offering health IT integration, cloud-based clinical platforms, and specialized ambulatory support services. While no specific contractors are currently identified in the award record, her procurement patterns suggest consistent collaboration with firms possessing expertise in federal health IT compliance, HIPAA-aligned data systems, and enterprise software deployment. Her working relationships reflect a preference for technical proficiency and system interoperability over vendor size, emphasizing performance-based outcomes and cybersecurity readiness in vendor selection. Windham’s contracting activity reflects a 100% non-set-aside profile, indicating a strategic focus on full and open competition to ensure access to the broadest possible pool of qualified technical providers. This approach prioritizes mission-critical capability over socioeconomic set-asides, though it does not preclude participation from small businesses that meet stringent technical and compliance requirements. Her primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 621999 (All Other Miscellaneous Ambulatory Health Care Services) and 541519 (Other Computer Related Services), underscoring expertise in procuring non-traditional clinical support services alongside advanced IT solutions such as health information exchanges, workflow automation tools, and secure data analytics platforms. She operates at the intersection of healthcare delivery and enterprise technology, ensuring that procurement decisions directly enable the readiness and resilience of military medical operations.
