Mr. Shawn R. Reinhart

Shawn R. Reinhart serves as a key procurement professional within the 257-NETWORK Contract Office 17 (36C257) of the Department of Veterans Affairs, supporting the acquisition of critical medical infrastructure and diagnostic technologies essential to veteran healthcare delivery. While holding a secondary role, Reinhart actively contributes to the planning, solicitation, and award of contracts for surgical instruments, electromedical devices, in-vitro diagnostic systems, and facility maintenance services. His work ensures operational readiness across VA medical campuses by aligning procurement strategy with clinical needs and regulatory compliance under FAR and VA-specific acquisition guidelines. Reinhart maintains consistent working relationships with leading vendors including Primary Care Solutions Inc., Quest Diagnostics Incorporated, VetPride Services, Inc., McKenzie Construction & Site Development LLC, and Cepheid. These partnerships reflect a balanced mix of large-capability providers in diagnostics and construction alongside specialized small business contractors. His procurement approach emphasizes vendor reliability, technical compliance, and service continuity, particularly in high-stakes environments requiring just-in-time delivery of medical equipment and facility upgrades. A defining feature of Reinhart’s contracting profile is his strong emphasis on socioeconomic set-asides, with nearly 79% of awards designated for Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses (SDVOSBs), underscoring a deep commitment to VA’s mission of supporting veteran entrepreneurs. Additional awards flow to total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5, reflecting a deliberate strategy to foster veteran-owned and small business participation in mission-critical healthcare procurement. His technical focus centers on NAICS codes 238220 (plumbing, heating, and HVAC systems), 339113 (surgical appliance manufacturing), 221310 (water supply systems), 811310 (commercial machinery repair), and 541519 (computer-related services). This specialization demonstrates expertise in procuring both physical infrastructure and digital health support systems, ensuring seamless integration of medical equipment, facility operations, and data-enabled diagnostics across VA healthcare networks.
