Robert Leblanc

Robert Leblanc serves as a procurement lead within the Defense Health Agency, where he manages strategic acquisitions critical to sustaining operational medical readiness across the Department of Defense’s global footprint. His responsibilities encompass the full lifecycle of contracting actions for professional services that support clinical workflow modernization, health data infrastructure, and pharmaceutical supply chain resilience. He routinely oversees contracts under FAR Part 15 for complex, performance-based requirements, with a focus on consulting, systems design, and technical services that align with DHA’s mission to deliver high-quality, secure healthcare to service members, retirees, and their families. Mr. Leblanc maintains consistent working relationships with a select group of specialized contractors, including Dependable On-Site Scan & Shred, Inc., Hanith Bioscience, LLC, Livion Technology, LLC, I-2-I Solutions, Inc., and Draeger Inc. These partnerships reflect a preference for vendors with proven expertise in healthcare compliance, biomedical technology, and mission-critical administrative support.

His procurement patterns show a strong preference for open competition, with 89.2% of awards issued without set-asides, indicating a focus on merit-based selection.

Mr. Leblanc’s portfolio is dominated by NAICS 541611 (Administrative Management and General Management Consulting Services), reflecting a heavy emphasis on process optimization and organizational efficiency. He also procures professional services under 813920 (Professional Organizations) and 541512 (Computer Systems Design Services), indicating deep engagement with healthcare operations consulting, clinical system integration, and technical advisory services that underpin DHA’s digital transformation initiatives.
