His leadership includes strategic subcontractor partnerships, performance monitoring, and cost modeling to achieve maximum efficiency and profitability.
Brandon’s track record includes securing and executing multi-year state and local government contracts exceeding $100,000 in aggregate value, implementing process-improvement systems, quality-assurance programs (QASP), and efficiency audits that have enhanced service delivery and operational transparency.

Brandon Schrader’s academic foundation combines technical expertise, business acumen, and advanced leadership training, aligning seamlessly with his operational and executive responsibilities as Chief Operating Officer of GRADER Logistics LLC.
He earned an Associate of Applied Science (AAS) in Biomedical Equipment Repair, which provided a strong technical base in medical technology systems, diagnostics, and equipment maintenance—expertise that now informs GRADER’s biomedical service operations for healthcare and urgent care clients.
Building on that foundation, he completed a Bachelor of Arts (BA) in Business Administration, gaining in-depth knowledge of organizational management, finance, marketing, and strategic decision-making. This degree strengthened his ability to develop scalable business models, manage multi-state contracts, and lead cross-functional teams with fiscal discipline and accountability.
Brandon also holds a Master of Business Administration (MBA), where his focus on strategic leadership, operational efficiency, and process optimization has been instrumental in guiding GRADER Logistics through sustained growth and diversification.
Currently, he continues his academic development through Texas State University, expanding his studies in policy, leadership, and organizational communication, while preparing to obtain the Project Management Professional (PMP) certification to further reinforce his credentials in structured project execution and program governance.
