Donna Rodriguez

Donna Rodriguez supports the procurement mission of W40M Mrco East, a critical component of the Department of the Army’s medical sustainment and modernization efforts. She manages acquisitions that equip field and garrison medical facilities with advanced diagnostic, therapeutic, and biomedical maintenance systems, ensuring operational readiness for military health operations. Her portfolio centers on clinical laboratory technologies, surgical instrumentation, and support services essential to combat medicine and military healthcare infrastructure. Rodriguez’s work directly enables the agency’s strategic priority of maintaining rapid, reliable diagnostic and treatment capabilities in austere and garrison environments. She maintains consistent partnerships with key industry leaders including Abbott Laboratories Inc., Combat Medical Systems LLC, and Covered by Love Inc., reflecting a blend of large-scale medical technology providers and specialized defense medical suppliers. Her contracting approach favors established vendors with proven capabilities in FDA-regulated medical devices, point-of-care diagnostics, and field-deployable laboratory systems. These relationships are characterized by long-term contract performance, technical compliance, and responsiveness to urgent operational requirements. Rodriguez exhibits a balanced approach to socioeconomic contracting, with nearly 29% of her awards designated as total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5, indicating a deliberate commitment to small business participation. While the majority of acquisitions remain open to all competitors, her consistent use of small business set-asides demonstrates active support for capable small firms in the defense medical supply chain. Her procurement focus is concentrated in NAICS 561990 (all other support services), encompassing biomedical maintenance and field medical support, alongside 325413 (in-vitro diagnostic substance manufacturing) and 325412 (pharmaceutical preparation manufacturing). She also regularly procures custom computer programming services for medical data systems and electronic equipment repair under 811210. This technical profile underscores her expertise in integrated medical systems, laboratory automation, and sustainment services critical to modern military medicine.
