Natasha A. Chee

Natasha A. Chee serves as a procurement professional responsible for managing a diverse portfolio of acquisitions aligned with federal health, medical supply, and technology requirements. Her role centers on ensuring timely, compliant, and efficient procurement of critical goods and services to support operational readiness and public health initiatives. She routinely handles complex contracts under FAR Part 12 and Part 13 procedures, with a focus on commercial items and simplified acquisition thresholds. Her work bridges clinical needs with supply chain logistics, ensuring that procurement strategies align with agency mission objectives while adhering to statutory and regulatory frameworks. While specific contractor relationships are not currently identifiable, Chee’s procurement patterns indicate a preference for established commercial suppliers in medical and industrial wholesale sectors, alongside a consistent engagement with small businesses. Her contracting approach reflects a balanced reliance on broad market competition, with a notable emphasis on small business participation, particularly through Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5. She fosters vendor partnerships grounded in reliability, compliance, and responsiveness, favoring suppliers with proven track records in delivering medical equipment, industrial supplies, and IT-enabled health services. Chee demonstrates a strong commitment to socioeconomic contracting, with nearly 80% of her acquisitions conducted without set-asides, while the remaining 20% are strategically reserved for small businesses under the Total Small Business Set-Aside category. This pattern suggests a deliberate effort to maximize competition while ensuring meaningful opportunities for small business vendors, without relying heavily on specialized programs like 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB. Her primary procurement focus lies in NAICS categories related to medical and industrial wholesale distribution, including 423450 for medical equipment suppliers and 334510 for electromedical device manufacturers. She also regularly procures services under 541519 for computer-related support and 621111 for physician office infrastructure, indicating expertise in healthcare technology integration and clinical supply chain management.
