Richmond McCloud serves as a key procurement lead within the 250-NETWORK Contract Office 10 (36C250) of the Department of Veterans Affairs, overseeing the acquisition of critical facility infrastructure and technical systems that support veteran healthcare delivery. Responsible for managing complex contracts for medical facility modernization, McCloud specializes in the procurement of construction services, electromechanical systems, and integrated building support solutions. Their work directly enables the VA’s mission to maintain and upgrade clinical environments with precision-engineered infrastructure, ensuring safe, functional, and compliant healthcare spaces for veterans nationwide. McCloud maintains established working relationships with a core group of contractors including WSSA LLC, OHIO AMBULANCE SOLUTIONS, LLC, INTEGRATED MAINTENANCE AND BUS SERVICES LLC, MGI, INC., and PROGENICS PHARMACEUTICALS INC. These partnerships reflect a balanced approach between large-capacity service providers and specialized technical vendors, with a focus on firms capable of delivering turnkey solutions in facility construction, maintenance logistics, and medical equipment integration. The contracting patterns indicate a preference for long-term, performance-based agreements that emphasize reliability, compliance, and lifecycle support. A strong commitment to socioeconomic contracting is evident in McCloud’s portfolio, with 40% of awards designated for Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses (SDVOSBs), aligning with VA’s statutory priorities. The remaining 60% of acquisitions operate under no set-aside, allowing for competitive open bidding while still encouraging small business subcontracting. This balanced strategy ensures both market competitiveness and meaningful veteran-owned business participation. McCloud’s procurement focus is concentrated in five core NAICS categories: Commercial and Institutional Building Construction (236220), Architectural Services (541310), Electrical Contractors (238210), Plumbing and HVAC (238220), and Residential Lessors (531110). This reflects deep expertise in integrated facility systems, from structural upgrades to climate control and utility infrastructure, supporting the VA’s broader goal of modernizing aging medical campuses with code-compliant, energy-efficient, and clinically optimized environments.
