Indefinite Delivery Contract SPE2DH25DA002

Linde Gas & Equipment Inc. was awarded a single-award Indefinite Delivery Contract (IDC) valued at $14.0 million by the Defense Logistics Agency Troop Support Medical, with an award date of October 17, 2025, and ultimate completion date of September 24, 2032. This contract supports the Hospital Supply Division Federal Supply Schedule (FSH) program, designated SPE2DH, and represents a non-set-aside competitive procurement. The contract stems from a Defense Health Agency initiative to establish a national medical gases program serving over 100 military medical treatment facilities across 12 regions. Linde Gas & Equipment Inc., a foreign-owned manufacturer and global supplier of industrial and medical gases with established federal contracting experience, was selected to provide compressed and bulk liquid medical gases including oxygen, nitrogen, nitrous oxide, and carbon dioxide to support Military Health System operations in accordance with Defense Health Agency procedures.

The contract anticipates annual spending of approximately $10 million for medical gas supply and related services to military medical treatment facilities nationwide. The original solicitation, issued as a Request for Information in January 2024, sought vendor capabilities to support facilities in at least one full region as either a primary or backup supplier, with vendors required to demonstrate certifications and infrastructure to reliably serve multiple facilities across the 12-region framework. The contracted services align with NAICS code 424480, covering medical, dental, and hospital equipment and supplies merchant wholesalers. With a performance period extending through September 2032, this IDC provides the Defense Health Agency with a streamlined procurement vehicle for sustained medical gas supply, leveraging Linde's existing expertise in providing specialized gases and associated equipment to federal agencies across research, healthcare, and defense sectors.
