About this agency
The Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration (VHA), a sub-agency within the cabinet-level Department of Veterans Affairs, is the federal healthcare provider for U.S. veterans, procuring medical equipment, facility services, and healthcare support across a nationwide network of medical centers. VHA operates as a major healthcare delivery organization with subordinate regional network contracting offices that manage acquisitions at individual medical facilities and networks.
VHA has awarded 1,694,143 federal contracts since 1993, with combined potential value of $527.65 billion and combined dollars obligated of $273.06 billion. Over the last five years, VHA closed 53,509 awards in 2023, 51,657 in 2024, 43,955 in 2025, 25,065 in 2026, and 17 year-to-date in 2027. The agency transacts heavily through Schedule task orders, BPA calls, and below-threshold purchase orders; recent awards show minimal reported potential value relative to award count, a structural characteristic common in medical equipment and supply procurement. VHA awarded to 65,692 distinct prime contractors across the portfolio.
Contract competitive concentration is highly fragmented. Among current primes by award count over the last five years, Permobil Inc. leads with 6,786 awards and $138 million combined potential value, followed by Edwards Lifesciences LLC with 3,348 awards and $123.7 million, and Sunrise Medical (US) LLC with 3,061 awards and $57.3 million; these five primes collectively represent 8 percent of recent awards. By potential value, SDV Office Systems LLC holds $551.7 million across 1,405 awards, and Trillamed LLC holds $420.2 million across 1,704 awards, though neither concentration metric approaches market dominance. The long tail of 65,692 contractors reflects the distributed nature of VHA procurement across durable medical equipment, facility services, and clinical supplies.
Set-asides strongly favor unrestricted procurement: 88 percent of awards carry no set-aside, while service-disabled veteran-owned small business designations account for 5 percent of awards and small-business set-asides account for 5 percent. Veteran-owned small business, 8(a), HUBZone, and woman-owned small business awards each comprise less than 1 percent of volume.
VHA has obligated $77.71 billion in federal grant dollars across 9,991 grant awards since 2001, with combined total dollars (federal plus non-federal) of $80.41 billion. Recent grant activity closed 972 awards in 2021, 946 in 2022, 1,041 in 2023, 607 in 2024, and 646 in 2025. Grant recipient concentration is highly fragmented, with top-five recipients by award count holding 5 percent of recent awards; United States Veterans Initiative leads by count at 38 awards and $98.1 million federal dollars. By federal dollars, Vincentian Cares Inc. leads with 18 awards and $137.4 million obligated, and Nation's Finest follows with 22 awards and $116.3 million, collectively representing 1 percent of federal grant dollars. VHA has funded 1,411 distinct grant recipients. Grant assistance is predominantly Project Grants (93 percent of awards), with Formula Grants at 5 percent and Cooperative Agreements at 2 percent.
