Stephanie Cahill

Stephanie Cahill serves as a Contract Specialist with Network Contract Office 19 (36C259) under the Department of Veterans Affairs, where she plays a pivotal role in executing strategic procurements that sustain and modernize VA healthcare infrastructure. She manages the full lifecycle of acquisitions for critical medical equipment, electromedical devices, surgical instruments, and facility maintenance services, ensuring compliance with federal procurement regulations and mission-aligned outcomes. Her work directly supports the operational readiness of VA medical facilities by securing reliable, high-quality supplies and services essential to veteran care delivery. Cahill maintains consistent working relationships with key contractors including MCKENZIE CONSTRUCTION & SITE DEVELOPMENT LLC, CEPHEID, UNIVERSITY PHYSICIANS, INCORPORATED, L1 ENTERPRISES INCORPORATED, and ALL AMERICAN EXPRESS SOLUTIONS LLC. These partnerships span construction, diagnostics, clinical services, and logistics, reflecting a balanced portfolio of large and mid-tier vendors. Her contracting approach emphasizes performance-based outcomes, clear deliverables, and vendor accountability, fostering long-term collaboration with suppliers who demonstrate technical proficiency and regulatory compliance. Her procurement strategy prioritizes small business participation, with over one-third of awards designated as Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5 and nearly 12 percent reserved for Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses. While the majority of acquisitions remain open to all competitors, her consistent use of socioeconomic set-asides underscores a deliberate commitment to expanding opportunities for veteran-owned and small businesses within the VA’s supply chain. Cahill’s technical expertise centers on NAICS categories including 339112 (Surgical and Medical Instrument Manufacturing), 339113 (Surgical Appliance and Supplies Manufacturing), and 334510 (Electromedical and Electrotherapeutic Apparatus Manufacturing). She routinely procures specialized clinical tools, diagnostic equipment, and HVAC systems critical to facility operations, demonstrating deep familiarity with medical device standards, FDA regulatory frameworks, and facility infrastructure requirements essential to VA healthcare delivery.
