VECRA

What VECRA does

VECRA is a service-disabled veteran-owned, woman-owned small business (SDVOSB/WOSB) headquartered in Lanham, Maryland, with additional offices in Kilmarnock, Virginia and Sarasota, Florida. The company delivers a multi-disciplinary portfolio of healthcare-adjacent professional services to federal, state, and local government agencies, healthcare institutions, and insurance companies. Core service lines include facilities management, health management consulting, certified medical coding (AAPC/AHIMA), program management, training and staffing support, call center operations, interpreter/translator services, records management, transcription, and move management. Its 1–10 employee operation is led by CEO Charlisa Watson, a former U.S. Army nurse with 30+ years in healthcare consulting, and President Lisa Askew, who brings 19 years of federal contracting experience from Lockheed Martin.

VECRA monetizes primarily through federal contract vehicles, holding two GSA Multiple Award Schedule contracts (47QRAA24D004Z and 47QRAA24D0050), VA Federal Supply Schedule 797-FSS-00-0115, ISO 9001:2015 quality certification, and multiple state-level DBE/SBE designations. Pricing follows multi-year contract structures typical of government professional services. In August 2022, VECRA extended its service surface by opening the VECRA Learning Institute (VLI), a training arm that adds workforce certification revenue on top of its staffing and consulting delivery. The company has also pursued strategic partnerships (e.g., KeySkillset in 2022) to augment capability breadth without proportionate headcount expansion.

The business model is anchored to set-aside eligibility — SDVOSB, WOSB, MBE status — which restricts direct competition on government healthcare RFPs but concentrates revenue exposure to public-sector procurement cycles. No external funding rounds, revenue figures, or anchor customer names are disclosed, and the absence of disclosed proprietary technology beyond a language testing system limits visibility into product-level differentiation.
