Headquarters

The Department of Veterans Affairs Headquarters, a civilian cabinet department serving as the federal government's principal procurer and administrator of veteran health services and benefits, holds a substantial federal contract portfolio encompassing 54,737 awards since 2001 with combined potential value of $479.72 billion. The VA rolled out 2,705 contract awards in 2023, 2,921 in 2024, 2,902 in 2025, 2,579 in 2026, and 3 year-to-date in 2027, with the most recently recorded award date in August 2027. Combined dollars obligated stand at $254.38 billion, or 53 percent of combined potential value.

Among primes competing over the last five years, contract competitive concentration is fragmented by both award count and potential value. By award count, GE Precision Healthcare LLC leads with 627 awards and $316.1 million combined potential value, followed by Philips North America LLC at 618 awards and $345.2 million, and Siemens Medical Solutions Usa, Inc. at 438 awards and $464.9 million; the top five account for 16 percent of recent awards. By potential value, however, V3Gate, LLC dominates with 230 awards and $5.12 billion combined potential value, Thundercat Technology, LLC holds 141 awards and $3.18 billion, and Four Points Technology, L.L.C. accounts for 266 awards and $1.2 billion; the top five account for only 2 percent of combined recent potential value, indicating that the VA contracts heavily through Schedule task orders, BPA calls, and modifications where dollar amounts are often not reported at the transaction level. The VA awards to 6,715 distinct primes cumulatively.

Set-aside activity heavily favors unrestricted competition. Seventy-three percent of awards carry no set-aside designation. Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business awards account for 18 percent, with an additional 2 percent awarded on a sole-source SDVOSB basis. Remaining small-business set-asides comprise 6 percent of the portfolio; all other set-aside categories (8(a), WOSB, HUBZone, VOSB) total less than 1 percent combined.

Current contract opportunities span healthcare IT infrastructure, medical equipment procurement, facility construction and renovation, and satellite communications. The VA released a pre-solicitation notice for an Electronic Health Records Management (EHRM) Infrastructure Upgrades Construction project at the Perry Point, Maryland VA Medical Center (due November 5, 2026, Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business set-aside); a solicitation for AITC Conference System Maintenance and Support (due October 28, 2026, SDVOSB set-aside); a sources-sought notice for Environmental Disinfection Systems Pulsed Xenon UV Light equipment (due November 4, 2026, unrestricted); and a Request for Information for Mission-Oriented Services for Application Integration and Capabilities (MOSAIC), seeking market research input on enterprise data products, APIs, and data access architectures (due November 4, 2026, unrestricted). A nationwide Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity Design-Build and Construction Multiple Award Task Order Contract with $7.5 billion total capacity, supporting healthcare facility work across VA Medical Centers, is anticipated for release on or about October 30, 2026, with both unrestricted and SDVOSB set-aside components.
