Misty Pham

Misty Pham serves as a Contracting Officer for the Department of Veterans Affairs, RPO West (36C24W), where she leads the acquisition of critical infrastructure to support veteran healthcare delivery. She is responsible for managing the full lifecycle of procurement actions, from market research and solicitation development to contract award and administration, with a primary focus on securing nonresidential leased facilities that house outpatient clinics and medical service centers. Her work directly enables the VA’s mission to modernize clinical environments and ensure operational readiness across veteran service facilities, making her a pivotal link between infrastructure needs and contract execution. Pham maintains consistent working relationships with a core 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 institutional healthcare operators, real estate lessors, and specialized service providers focused on facility management and medical support. Her contracting approach emphasizes long-term stability, performance-based outcomes, and compliance with federal real property standards, fostering reliable vendor collaboration grounded in transparency and regulatory adherence. Her procurement patterns show a strong preference for open competition, with 88.9% of awards issued without set-asides, reflecting a focus on maximizing market participation and value. When set-asides are utilized, they primarily favor Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses (7.4%) and 8(a) competed contracts (3.7%), demonstrating targeted, though limited, support for socioeconomic programs aligned with VA’s veteran-centric priorities. Pham’s portfolio is overwhelmingly concentrated in NAICS 531120—Lessors of Nonresidential Buildings—accounting for 95.8% of her acquisitions. She specializes in procuring leased clinical and administrative spaces that meet stringent healthcare facility standards, including ADA compliance, medical utility requirements, and security protocols. Her technical expertise lies in real property acquisition for healthcare delivery, ensuring that leased environments are functionally equipped to support diagnostic, surgical, and dental services for veteran populations.
