Loren Mollner

Loren Mollner serves as the primary procurement lead for the Department of Veterans Affairs’ RPO West (36C24W) office, responsible for managing acquisitions that support the modernization and operational readiness of veteran healthcare infrastructure. With a focus on facility-based contracts, Mollner oversees the procurement of nonresidential building leasing services essential to expanding and maintaining outpatient clinics and medical service centers. Their role is critical in aligning real estate and facility acquisition strategies with the VA’s mission to deliver accessible, high-quality clinical environments for veterans, ensuring that physical infrastructure meets stringent healthcare compliance and operational standards. Mollner maintains consistent working relationships with a select group of contractors including Yuma Regional Medical Center, Interra Waterview LLC, Colorado State University Research Foundation, EFC Services Corporation, and New Tech Solutions, Inc. These partnerships reflect a blend of healthcare facility operators, specialized construction and maintenance vendors, and research-affiliated entities capable of delivering mission-critical infrastructure solutions. The contracting patterns indicate a preference for established, experienced vendors with proven capacity in managing federal healthcare real estate requirements, often involving long-term lease agreements and facility adaptation for clinical use. Mollner’s procurement portfolio is evenly split between open competition and Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5, demonstrating a balanced yet deliberate commitment to small business participation. While no other socioeconomic set-asides such as 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB dominate the portfolio, the consistent use of small business set-asides signals a strategic emphasis on fostering competition among qualified small firms capable of supporting VA facility operations. The agency’s procurement activity is exclusively focused on NAICS 531120—Lessors of Nonresidential Buildings (except Miniwarehouses)—indicating a specialized domain expertise in leasing and managing commercial real estate for federal healthcare use. Mollner’s work centers on securing turnkey medical facility spaces, including lease negotiations, build-out compliance, and operational handover, ensuring that leased properties meet VA clinical, safety, and accessibility standards for veteran care delivery.
