Wendy Minch

Wendy Minch serves as a Contracting Officer with the Strategic Acquisition Center Fredericksburg (36C10G) under the Department of Veterans Affairs, where she leads the procurement of mission-critical medical technology and support services essential to modernizing VA healthcare delivery. Her portfolio centers on acquiring advanced electromedical devices, diagnostic equipment, surgical instruments, and related clinical support systems that directly enhance veteran care outcomes. She manages full lifecycle contracting actions—from market research and solicitation development to award and contract administration—ensuring compliance with federal acquisition regulations and VA-specific clinical requirements. Her work is foundational to equipping VA facilities with reliable, interoperable, and FDA-compliant medical systems that meet the evolving needs of veteran populations. Wendy maintains consistent working relationships with a select group of specialized vendors, including Fidelis Sustainability Distribution LLC, Contemporary Product Solutions, Inc., and Veterans Healthcare Supply Solutions, Inc., all of which provide niche medical equipment, maintenance, and supply chain services tailored to clinical environments. Her partnerships reflect a preference for vendors with proven expertise in healthcare logistics, medical device lifecycle support, and compliance with Joint Commission and FDA standards. She engages primarily with established industry providers who demonstrate technical proficiency, service responsiveness, and adherence to federal quality assurance protocols. Wendy’s contracting activity is entirely non-set-aside, with 100% of her awards issued under full and open competition. While she does not prioritize socioeconomic set-asides such as 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB programs, her approach emphasizes technical merit, vendor performance history, and compliance with clinical safety requirements over socioeconomic criteria, aligning with the agency’s focus on mission-critical capability over programmatic preferences. Her primary procurement focus is NAICS 541512 (Computer Systems Design Services), reflecting her specialization in procuring integrated clinical IT systems, medical device connectivity solutions, and digital health infrastructure. She regularly manages acquisitions for electronic health record interfaces, diagnostic imaging software, telehealth platforms, and biomedical data management systems, demonstrating deep expertise in health information technology and interoperable medical device ecosystems.
