Heather Pelley

Heather Pelley serves as a Contract Administrator responsible for managing the full lifecycle of federal acquisitions, from requirements validation through contract award and administration. She plays a critical role in ensuring compliance with federal procurement regulations, including the FAR and agency-specific policies, while supporting mission-critical healthcare and medical infrastructure needs. Her portfolio primarily encompasses professional services and specialized medical equipment procurement, with a focus on ensuring timely, transparent, and legally sound contract execution. Pelley collaborates closely with program offices to translate technical needs into enforceable solicitation language and oversees contract modifications, performance evaluations, and closeout procedures. While no specific contractor relationships are currently identifiable in the data, Pelley engages with a diverse range of vendors, including manufacturers of surgical supplies and medical instruments, as well as independent healthcare practitioners and laboratory service providers. Her working relationships reflect a preference for established, compliant suppliers capable of meeting stringent regulatory and quality standards, particularly in regulated medical environments. She maintains a vendor-neutral approach, prioritizing technical capability, past performance, and regulatory adherence over vendor size or affiliation. Pelley’s contracting activity is entirely non-set-aside, with 100% of awards issued under full and open competition. This reflects a strategic alignment with agency priorities that emphasize broad market access and competitive pricing, rather than socioeconomic set-asides such as 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB programs. Her approach underscores a commitment to efficiency and market-driven outcomes, while still ensuring adherence to small business goals through occasional subcontracting opportunities. Her primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 621399 (miscellaneous health practitioners) and 339113 (surgical appliance and supplies manufacturing), with additional activity in medical laboratories and surgical instrument manufacturing. She specializes in procuring diagnostic tools, outpatient clinical services, and precision medical devices, demonstrating deep familiarity with FDA-regulated products and healthcare delivery systems. Her technical expertise ensures that acquisitions align with clinical standards and operational requirements in ambulatory and specialty care settings.
