Ebony Stewart

Ebony Stewart serves as a key procurement professional within the 247-NETWORK Contract Office 7 (36C247) of the Department of Veterans Affairs, where she manages strategic acquisitions critical to modernizing veteran healthcare infrastructure. Her work centers on securing specialized medical equipment, clinical instrumentation, and facility support systems that directly enhance the safety, functionality, and technological capability of VA medical facilities. She handles complex solicitations under fixed-price and cost-reimbursement contract types, with a strong emphasis on compliance with federal acquisition regulations and mission-driven outcomes aligned with VA’s healthcare modernization goals. Stewart maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of contractors including BIRMINGHAM INDUSTRIAL CONSTRUCTION, LLC, EXCELSIOR AMBULANCE SERVICE INC, TRANSOX INC, VASCULAR RADIOLOGY ASSOCIATES II, and Veterans Service Solutions LLC. These partnerships reflect a preference for vendors with proven expertise in medical device installation, ambulance fleet support, vascular diagnostics, and facility maintenance services. Her procurement approach prioritizes vendor reliability, technical compliance, and post-award performance oversight to ensure seamless integration of procured assets into operational clinical environments. A defining feature of her contracting portfolio is a pronounced commitment to socioeconomic programs, with 75% of her awards designated for Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses (SDVOSBs). This reflects a deliberate strategy to empower veteran-led enterprises while ensuring mission-critical capabilities are sourced from organizations with deep understanding of VA’s unique operational needs. The remaining 25% of acquisitions are conducted as open competitions, maintaining market competitiveness while upholding statutory small business goals. Her technical focus is anchored in NAICS 339113 (Surgical Appliance and Supplies Manufacturing), indicating a dominant procurement profile in clinical devices, surgical instrumentation, and patient care accessories. She also manages acquisitions under NAICS 333924 for specialized industrial lift and material handling equipment used in hospital logistics. This dual specialization underscores her expertise in both clinical and operational infrastructure procurement within the healthcare environment.
