Rachel Yallech

Rachel Yallech serves as a Contract Specialist within the Department of Veterans Affairs (Agency Code 36C776), where she plays a pivotal role in executing strategic acquisitions to modernize veteran healthcare infrastructure. She manages a diverse portfolio of contracts spanning facility modernization, medical equipment procurement, and logistics consulting services, ensuring compliance with federal acquisition regulations and alignment with VA’s mission to deliver safe, technologically advanced medical facilities nationwide. Her work directly supports the agency’s priorities in upgrading electronic health records systems and expanding clinical capacity through engineered solutions. Yallech maintains consistent procurement relationships with key contractors including RWH Capital LLC, Bridger Richard JV LLC, Hurley JV, LLP, Veterans Contracting Group, Inc., and The Trevino Group, Inc. These partnerships reflect a balanced approach to large-scale joint ventures and specialized service providers, often engaged for complex construction, medical equipment integration, and operational consulting tasks. Her contracting patterns demonstrate a preference for established, experienced vendors capable of delivering mission-critical infrastructure and technical support under stringent federal standards. While the majority of her acquisitions (66.7%) are unrestricted, Yallech demonstrates a strong commitment to socioeconomic contracting, with nearly one-third of awards reserved for Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses (SDVOSB), and a consistent 6.7% allocated to total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5. This reflects a deliberate effort to leverage veteran-owned enterprises while maintaining flexibility for mission-critical needs. Her procurement focus centers on NAICS 333415 (HVAC and refrigeration equipment), 339113 (surgical appliance manufacturing), and 541614 (process and logistics consulting), indicating deep expertise in medical facility systems, surgical supply procurement, and operational efficiency services. She routinely sources specialized equipment and technical consulting to support the design, build, and sustainment of modern VA healthcare environments.
