John Milroy

John Milroy serves as a Contracting Officer for Network Contract Office 23 (36C263) within the Department of Veterans Affairs, where he leads the acquisition of critical medical equipment, surgical supplies, and facility infrastructure essential to sustaining VA healthcare delivery nationwide. He manages full lifecycle procurements under FAR and VA-specific guidelines, ensuring timely delivery of high-priority clinical and operational assets that support veteran care standards. His portfolio spans complex technical acquisitions including diagnostic systems, sterilization equipment, HVAC infrastructure, and precision medical device maintenance services, requiring rigorous technical evaluation and compliance with federal healthcare procurement standards. Milroy maintains consistent working relationships with key vendors including Abbott Laboratories Inc., BZ Construction and Development LLC, Highlands Enterprises LLC, Primary Care Solutions Inc., and Pedersen & Rangel. These partnerships reflect a balanced mix of large-capability prime contractors and specialized service providers, with a focus on firms capable of delivering mission-critical medical and facility solutions under strict regulatory and performance requirements. His contracting approach emphasizes reliability, technical compliance, and long-term service support, fostering collaborative vendor engagement to meet VA’s operational tempo and clinical needs. His set-aside preferences reflect a strong but selective commitment to socioeconomic programs, with Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) set-asides accounting for 17.7% of awards and total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5 at 9.2%. While the majority of his acquisitions remain open to full and open competition (73.0%), he strategically deploys SDVOSB and small business set-asides to enhance veteran-owned business participation without compromising mission readiness or technical capability. Milroy’s procurement focus centers on NAICS codes 811219 (precision equipment repair), 339112 (surgical instrument manufacturing), 811210 (electronic equipment maintenance), 238220 (HVAC and plumbing contractors), and 541519 (computer-related services). His technical expertise lies in acquiring diagnostic, therapeutic, and facility-support technologies that directly enable clinical operations, with deep familiarity in medical device lifecycle management, biomedical maintenance contracts, and healthcare infrastructure modernization.
