Jessica Stevenson

Jessica Stevenson serves as a Contract Specialist within the Department of Veterans Affairs (Agency Code 36C776), where she plays a pivotal role in executing strategic facility modernization and infrastructure acquisition programs critical to veteran healthcare delivery. She manages the full lifecycle of architectural services contracts, ensuring compliance with federal procurement regulations while aligning acquisitions with the agency’s mission to modernize medical facilities through safe, technologically advanced design and construction. Her portfolio primarily consists of design-phase engagements, including schematic design, construction documentation, and integrated facility planning, all governed under NAICS 541310. Stevenson’s work directly supports the VA’s long-term capital improvement goals by translating clinical and operational needs into enforceable, performance-based contract requirements. She maintains consistent working relationships with a select group of prime contractors, including RWH Capital LLC, Bridger Richard JV LLC, Hurley JV, LLP, Veterans Contracting Group, Inc., and The Trevino Group, Inc. These partnerships reflect a preference for established firms with proven experience in federal healthcare facility design and complex renovation projects. Stevenson fosters collaborative, transparent contracting environments, often engaging contractors early in the requirements development phase to enhance design efficiency and lifecycle cost outcomes. A defining feature of her procurement approach is a strong commitment to socioeconomic goals, with 66.7% of her awards designated as Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) set-asides. This reflects a deliberate strategy to prioritize veteran-owned enterprises and reinforce the VA’s mission of supporting those who served. The remaining 33.3% of acquisitions are conducted as full and open competitions, ensuring market competitiveness while maintaining compliance with statutory small business obligations. Her technical expertise is concentrated exclusively in architectural services under NAICS 541310, where she specializes in procuring design and planning services for clinical spaces, EHR infrastructure integration, and facility upgrades. She ensures all contracts include performance metrics tied to safety standards, accessibility compliance, and interoperability with VA’s broader digital health ecosystem.
