This federal contract award was made by the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Troop Support Medical branch to Zoll Medical Corporation, a foreign-owned, for-profit manufacturer of medical devices and software solutions. The $1,790.93 delivery order, with an ultimate completion date of September 3, 2024, is for the provision of "RAINBOW, R1-25 BUTTERFLY ADULT ADHESIVE" medical supplies.
The award is part of a larger $81 million Indefinite Delivery Contract (IDC) between Zoll and the DLA, which was originally awarded on September 28, 2022, and runs through September 27, 2027. This IDC enables the rapid procurement of Zoll's critical emergency medical technologies, such as ventilators, defibrillators, and patient monitors, to equip military treatment facilities and maintain healthcare readiness across multiple federal agencies, including the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA), Department of Homeland Security (DHS), and Department of State.
The contract award does not have a set-aside designation, reflecting Zoll's status as a large, established manufacturer in the medical device industry. Zoll has also supported federal grant-funded research and development efforts as a sub-awardee, leveraging its expertise in areas like ventilation and oxygen delivery systems.
