Janetra A Johnson

Janetra Johnson serves as the primary contracting lead for the 261-NETWORK Contract Office 21 (36C261) within the Department of Veterans Affairs, where she oversees the acquisition of specialized medical equipment, surgical supplies, and clinical instrumentation critical to sustaining VA healthcare delivery. Her role is central to modernizing clinical infrastructure by ensuring timely procurement of electromedical devices, surgical appliances, and diagnostic systems that support veteran-centric care. She manages a diverse portfolio of contracts spanning manufacturing, systems integration, and facility support services, aligning acquisitions with VA’s mission to deliver high-quality, accessible medical services through technologically advanced and reliable equipment. Johnson maintains established relationships with key contractors including Abbott Laboratories Inc., Cynergy Professional Systems LLC, Integrated Trans Joint Venture LLC, Science Applications International Corporation, and McKenzie Construction & Site Development LLC. These partnerships reflect a balanced approach to sourcing—leveraging large-capability vendors for complex medical and IT systems while engaging specialized firms for niche surgical and laboratory equipment. Her contracting patterns demonstrate a preference for performance-based, fixed-price, and indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity (IDIQ) mechanisms to ensure operational flexibility and supply chain resilience. Her procurement strategy prioritizes open competition, with 83.3% of awards issued under no set-aside, yet she consistently supports socioeconomic programs, allocating 11.1% to service-disabled veteran-owned small businesses and 5.6% to total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5. This balanced approach ensures both efficiency and compliance with VA’s commitment to veteran-owned enterprise development. Johnson’s technical focus centers on NAICS 339113 (surgical appliance and supplies manufacturing), 334510 (electromedical apparatus), and 339112 (medical instruments), reflecting deep expertise in procuring FDA-regulated, clinically validated devices. She routinely engages with manufacturers of surgical tools, diagnostic monitors, and integrated clinical systems, ensuring procurement decisions align with clinical standards and regulatory compliance.
