About this agency
The Department of State Bureau of Medical Services is a civilian sub-agency that procures medical equipment, diagnostics, pharmaceuticals, and related health-care supplies to support U.S. diplomatic missions and overseas health programs worldwide. The Bureau has awarded 893 federal contracts since 2006, with a combined potential value of $1.76 billion and $1.17 billion in obligated dollars. Activity has declined significantly in recent years: the Bureau issued 38 awards in 2022, 33 in 2023, 25 in 2024, 11 in 2025, and 8 so far in 2026, with the most recent award closing on 2026-09-30.
The competitive landscape is moderately concentrated by award count but highly fragmented by dollar value. Katmai Management Services LLC leads by award frequency with 15 awards over the last five years and a combined potential value of $6.2 million, followed by Cepheid and New TECH Solutions, Inc., each with 6 awards. These top five primes by award count hold 30 percent of recent awards. By contract value, however, no single vendor dominates: Phoenix Air Group, Inc. and Palantir USG Inc. each hold roughly $60 million in combined potential value across just two awards apiece, yet together account for only 10 percent of the combined potential value across the last five years. The remaining 326 distinct prime contractors awarded across the portfolio hold the majority of value, reflecting a highly fragmented supplier base where high-value medical equipment and capability contracts are distributed across specialized vendors.
Set-asides are uncommon at the Bureau. Eighty-two percent of awards carry no set-aside designation. Small-business set-asides account for 11 percent of awards, 8(a) sole-source awards for 5 percent, and other designations (Partial Small Business, Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business, Competitive 8(a), and HUBZone) combined for 2 percent. The concentration of open-market awards reflects the Bureau's procurement of specialized medical technologies and diagnostics where vendor availability may be limited to established manufacturers or sole-source suppliers.
No recent contract opportunities are recorded against the agency or its descendant offices.
