Deborah Lampton

Deborah Lampton serves as a key procurement professional within the USDA Forest Service, overseeing acquisitions critical to sustaining operational readiness across remote and high-risk federal lands. Her work centers on securing specialized health care services to support forest service personnel, emergency responders, and transient workforces in isolated environments. She manages contract vehicles aligned with the agency’s mission to maintain workforce health and safety in challenging terrains, focusing on mobile, on-demand, and expeditionary medical support solutions. Her acquisitions are strategically designed to ensure continuity of care for field staff engaged in wildfire suppression, invasive species control, and infrastructure resilience operations. Lampton maintains consistent relationships with a select group of contractors including ACI FEDERAL INC, ONE STOP RECRUITING LLC, GONDO ROY E MD, THE LOCUMS CO, LLC, and AMD INTERNATIONAL TECHNOLOGIES LLC. These partnerships reflect a reliance on niche providers offering temporary medical staffing, locum tenens services, and specialized ambulatory care delivery tailored to federal field operations. Her contracting patterns emphasize agility and rapid mobilization, favoring vendors with proven experience in deploying clinical personnel to remote, non-traditional work settings under dynamic operational conditions. She exhibits a steadfast commitment to socioeconomic equity, directing 100% of her procurements toward small business set-asides under FAR 19.5. This reflects a deliberate strategy to prioritize small, service-disabled veteran-owned, and other certified small businesses capable of delivering responsive, scalable health care support. Her contracting approach reinforces the Forest Service’s broader goals of fostering economic opportunity while ensuring mission-critical capabilities remain robust and locally sourced. Her primary procurement focus is on NAICS 621999—All Other Miscellaneous Ambulatory Health Care Services—encompassing temporary physician staffing, mobile clinical units, and non-emergency transportable medical services. She specializes in acquiring just-in-time clinical support that aligns with the transient, high-mobility nature of Forest Service operations, ensuring workforce health without permanent infrastructure investment.
