Robin Cramer

Robin Cramer serves as an Acquisition Specialist within the Department of Veterans Affairs (Agency Code: 36C776), where they play a pivotal role in executing strategic procurement initiatives that support the modernization of veteran healthcare infrastructure. Responsible for managing complex construction, engineering, and architectural services contracts, Cramer ensures compliance with federal acquisition regulations while advancing the agency’s mission to deliver safe, technologically advanced medical facilities. Their portfolio primarily encompasses facility upgrades, clinical space expansion, and EHR infrastructure enhancements, requiring deep coordination with design professionals, general contractors, and engineering firms to align procurement outcomes with operational and regulatory standards. Cramer maintains consistent working 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 preference for joint ventures and established firms with proven experience in federal healthcare construction and design services. The working relationships are characterized by long-term engagement, performance-based evaluations, and collaborative pre-solicitation outreach to ensure technical requirements are clearly defined and competitively sourced. A strong commitment to socioeconomic contracting is evident in Cramer’s preference for Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) set-asides, which account for 38.1% of awards, reflecting a deliberate alignment with VA’s mission to support veteran entrepreneurs. While the majority of procurements are open to full and open competition (61.9%), SDVOSB participation remains a strategic priority, integrated into solicitation planning and evaluation criteria to foster equitable access and workforce development. Cramer’s procurement focus centers on NAICS 541310 (Architectural Services) and 236220 (Commercial and Institutional Building Construction), each representing 42.9% of activity, with additional emphasis on NAICS 541330 (Engineering Services). Their expertise lies in procuring integrated design-build solutions, facility modernization packages, and technical engineering support critical to sustaining VA’s national network of medical facilities.
