Nathan A Carver

Nathan Carver serves as a Contract Specialist with the 256-NETWORK Contract Office 16 (36C256) under the Department of Veterans Affairs, where he plays a pivotal role in securing critical healthcare infrastructure and facility support services for VA medical centers and residential care facilities. His procurement portfolio centers on the acquisition of electromedical equipment, plumbing and HVAC systems, and facility maintenance services essential to sustaining veteran healthcare environments. Carver manages the full lifecycle of contract actions—from market research and solicitation development to award and closeout—ensuring compliance with federal acquisition regulations and VA-specific mission priorities. He maintains consistent working relationships with key contractors including VETMEDPROPERTY LLC, MILLBROOK SUPPORT SERVICES INC, SI PROPERTY INVESTMENTS LLC, BRISTON CONSTRUCTION, LLC, and 336 AT SOUTH MEDICAL LTD, primarily engaging firms with demonstrated expertise in healthcare facility modernization and technical maintenance. His partnerships reflect a preference for vendors with proven experience in VA-specific compliance requirements, particularly those capable of delivering rapid-response services in active clinical settings. Carver demonstrates a strong commitment to socioeconomic contracting, with 60% of his awards designated for Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) set-asides, reflecting the agency’s mission to prioritize veteran-owned enterprises. The remaining 40% of acquisitions are conducted as no-set-aside procurements, typically when specialized technical capabilities or urgent operational needs require broader market competition. His primary NAICS focus is on 238220 (Plumbing, Heating, and Air-Conditioning Contractors), accounting for half of his portfolio, followed by electrical contracting (238210), temporary healthcare staffing (561320), physician offices (621111), and skilled nursing facilities (623110). This specialization underscores his technical expertise in facility systems integration and clinical support services critical to maintaining safe, functional, and modern VA healthcare environments.
