Mark Hrycyk

Mark Hrycyk serves as a Contract Specialist within the 262-NETWORK Contract Office 22 (36C262) under the Department of Veterans Affairs, where he plays a pivotal role in executing complex acquisitions to sustain and modernize the VA’s healthcare infrastructure. He manages the full lifecycle of procurement actions for mission-critical medical equipment, diagnostic substances, surgical supplies, and laboratory services, ensuring compliance with federal acquisition regulations and alignment with clinical readiness objectives. His work directly supports the delivery of safe, technologically advanced care to veterans by securing reliable, high-performance medical solutions across VA medical centers and outpatient facilities. Hrycyk maintains consistent working relationships with key contractors including EXELAN PHARMACEUTICALS INC, SIRTEX MEDICAL INC, ONE LIFE TRANSPORTATION LLC, A-TEAM SOLUTIONS LLC, and SCIENCE APPLICATIONS INTERNATIONAL CORPORATION. These partnerships reflect a focus on specialized medical manufacturers, logistics providers, and IT-enabled service firms capable of delivering regulated, high-compliance products and services. His contracting approach emphasizes performance-based outcomes, technical specificity, and vendor accountability to meet stringent clinical and regulatory standards. His procurement portfolio is overwhelmingly non-set-aside, with 96.3% of awards issued under full and open competition, reflecting the technical complexity and specialized nature of the goods and services procured. Only 3.7% of awards are designated as total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5, indicating a strategic prioritization of capability over socioeconomic preference, while still maintaining avenues for qualified small business participation when feasible. Hrycyk’s primary NAICS focus lies in 325413 (In-Vitro Diagnostic Substance Manufacturing), which constitutes over 60% of his acquisitions, followed by 339113 (Surgical Appliance and Supplies Manufacturing) and 621511 (Medical Laboratories). He specializes in procuring laboratory reagents, diagnostic kits, sterile surgical devices, and associated support services, demonstrating deep domain expertise in clinical diagnostics and medical supply chain logistics within the federal healthcare environment.
