Michael Rosenthal

Michael Rosenthal serves as a Contract Specialist within the 252-NETWORK Contract Office 12 (36C252) of the Department of Veterans Affairs, where he plays a pivotal role in executing mission-critical acquisitions to sustain and modernize the physical and technological infrastructure underpinning veteran healthcare delivery. He manages the full lifecycle of contracts for facility infrastructure, medical equipment support, and operational systems, ensuring compliance with federal acquisition regulations while aligning procurements with VA’s strategic imperatives for safe, functional, and technologically advanced care environments. His portfolio primarily encompasses construction, building systems, and specialized medical support services. Rosenthal maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of contractors including MCKENZIE CONSTRUCTION & SITE DEVELOPMENT LLC, KOFFEL MEDICAL SUPPLY INC, ADVANCED IMAGING MANAGEMENT, LLC, and TROOP CONTRACTING INC, reflecting a preference for established vendors with proven expertise in healthcare facility upgrades and medical equipment integration. His contracting patterns emphasize reliability, technical proficiency, and performance history, often engaging firms with prior experience in VA environments to mitigate risk and ensure seamless deployment.

His procurement strategy balances open competition with targeted small business inclusion to foster equitable access and enhance contractor diversity.
