Samantha Henderson serves as a key procurement lead within the 242-NETWORK Contract Office 02 (36C242) of the Department of Veterans Affairs, overseeing the acquisition of critical infrastructure and facility support services essential to veteran healthcare delivery. She manages a diverse portfolio of contracts focused on facility renovations, clinical equipment maintenance, and environmental remediation, ensuring VA medical centers operate with modern, safe, and compliant infrastructure. Her work directly supports the agency’s mission to sustain and modernize the physical environments where veterans receive care, with a strong emphasis on mission-critical repairs, HVAC systems, and building systems integration. Henderson maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of contractors including MCKENZIE CONSTRUCTION & SITE DEVELOPMENT LLC, SAWTOOTH CONSTRUCTION JV II LLC, and J & J MECHANICAL AND CONSTRUCTION GROUP LLC, all of whom provide specialized construction, mechanical, and facility services. She also collaborates regularly with AMD INTERNATIONAL TECHNOLOGIES LLC and ASSISTED TRANSPORTATION CORP for technical and logistical support. Her procurement approach emphasizes performance-based contracting, with a preference for established vendors with proven track records in VA facility operations and compliance with federal building codes. Henderson’s contracting activity is entirely non-set-aside, with 100% of awards issued under full and open competition. While she does not prioritize socioeconomic set-asides such as 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB programs, her portfolio reflects a focus on technical capability and operational readiness over socioeconomic classification, aligning with the urgency and complexity of VA infrastructure needs. Her primary procurement focus centers on NAICS 811219 (Commercial and Industrial Machinery Repair), 238220 (Plumbing, Heating, and Air-Conditioning Contractors), and 811310 (Equipment Repair and Maintenance), with significant activity in facilities support services (561210) and remediation (562910). She specializes in procuring HVAC system upgrades, medical equipment servicing, building automation integration, and hazardous material abatement—domains requiring stringent regulatory compliance and technical expertise in federal healthcare facilities.
