She facilitates the procurement of in-vitro diagnostic substances, surgical instrumentation, sterilization systems, and blood management solutions that enable operational medical sovereignty. While not the primary contracting officer, her role is instrumental in coordinating requirements validation, vendor engagement, and contract administration across complex medical technology acquisitions, ensuring alignment with Army medical readiness objectives and federal acquisition regulations. Craig maintains consistent working relationships with key industry partners including Roche Diagnostics Corporation, Cardinal Health 414, LLC, and Surgical Neuromonitoring Associates, Inc., reflecting a focus on high-reliability medical technology suppliers. Her contracting patterns demonstrate a preference for established vendors with proven capabilities in diagnostic equipment, sterile processing systems, and trauma care solutions.
