Marisol Sherer, Contract Specialist

Marisol Sherer serves as a Contract Specialist within the 256-NETWORK Contract Office 16 (36C256) of the Department of Veterans Affairs, where she plays a pivotal role in executing mission-critical acquisitions to sustain and modernize VA healthcare infrastructure. She manages the full lifecycle of procurements for specialized medical equipment, facility maintenance services, and professional technical support essential to veteran care delivery. Her portfolio includes complex contracts for electromedical systems, clinical facility upgrades, and behavioral health service support, ensuring VA hospitals and clinics remain operational, compliant, and technologically current. Sherer’s work directly enables the agency’s mandate to provide high-quality, accessible healthcare environments for veterans nationwide. Sherer maintains consistent procurement relationships with a select group of specialized contractors, including VETMEDPROPERTY LLC, MILLBROOK SUPPORT SERVICES INC, SI PROPERTY INVESTMENTS LLC, BRISTON CONSTRUCTION, LLC, and 336 AT SOUTH MEDICAL LTD. These partnerships reflect a focus on firms with demonstrated expertise in medical facility operations, clinical infrastructure, and veteran-centric service delivery. Her contracting approach emphasizes long-term vendor collaboration, performance-based outcomes, and compliance with VA-specific regulatory frameworks, fostering reliable, mission-aligned supplier networks. A hallmark of Sherer’s contracting strategy is her strong preference for Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) set-asides, which account for two-thirds of her awarded contracts. This reflects a deliberate and sustained commitment to socioeconomic programs that empower veteran entrepreneurs and enhance veteran-owned business participation in federal healthcare procurement. The remaining third of her awards are competitively opened without set-asides, ensuring market-wide competition while prioritizing veteran-centric economic inclusion. Her procurement focus is concentrated in three key NAICS categories: 541990 (All Other Professional, Scientific, and Technical Services), 621330 (Offices of Mental Health Practitioners), and 621111 (Offices of Physicians). These reflect her expertise in securing clinical support services, behavioral health staffing, and physician-led care delivery systems. Sherer’s technical domain centers on integrated healthcare operations, ensuring that procurement decisions align with clinical workflows and regulatory standards governing veteran healthcare delivery.
