Her contracting patterns reflect a preference for long-term, performance-based partnerships that emphasize supply chain agility, technical compliance with military medical standards, and rapid response capabilities. She actively engages with vendors capable of meeting stringent DoD quality assurance and logistics traceability requirements, fostering collaboration across industrial base sectors supporting expeditionary medicine.

This reflects a deliberate strategy to maximize economic opportunity for small businesses while ensuring competitive innovation and responsive service delivery. Her portfolio consistently prioritizes small business contractors, reinforcing the Department of Defense’s socioeconomic goals and enhancing the resilience of the medical logistics industrial base through broad-based vendor inclusion. Her primary procurement focus is centered on NAICS 622110—General Medical and Surgical Hospitals—encompassing the acquisition of hospital-grade medical devices, diagnostic imaging systems, portable clinical equipment, and associated software platforms. Draper’s technical expertise lies in procuring systems that meet military-specific environmental, interoperability, and field-deployability standards, ensuring seamless integration into forward-deployed medical treatment facilities and naval medical units.
