Federal Supply Schedule V797D40330

The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) awarded a Federal Supply Schedule (FSS) contract to D.T. Davis Enterprises, Ltd., doing business as Hovertech International, for the provision of medical equipment and supplies. The contract, valued at up to $96.3 million, enables the VA to issue task orders for Hovertech's specialized patient handling and mobility devices, including HoverMatt air transfer systems, HoverJack patient lift equipment, and related accessories. Hovertech, a foreign-owned, for-profit manufacturer, has consistently secured delivery orders through this FSS contract to support VA healthcare facilities nationwide, with individual task orders ranging from $10,000 to nearly $280,000. The majority of these contracts have been firm-fixed-price awards without set-aside designations, though a few have prioritized service-disabled veteran-owned businesses or small businesses. Hovertech's equipment supports the VA's mission to provide high-quality patient care and facilitate safe, efficient patient movement and transfer across various healthcare settings.

The FSS contract allows the VA to procure a comprehensive range of Hovertech's medical supply products, including patient exam room supplies, patient mobility devices, and brand-name medical equipment. Hovertech has also secured significant Indefinite Delivery Vehicles (IDVs) with the VA, such as a $16.8 million contract for air-assisted patient lifting systems and a $3 million Blanket Purchase Agreement for the MSPV (Medical/Surgical Prime Vendor) Program. These IDVs enable the VA to issue recurring task orders for Hovertech's specialized patient handling equipment at VA facilities across multiple Integrated Service Networks.
