Indefinite Delivery Contract SPE2DH26DA007

The Defense Logistics Agency Troop Support Medical awarded a single-award Indefinite Delivery Contract to Linde Gas & Equipment Inc. (UEI: PBGNFLNFRWB9) under the SPE2DH program on October 20, 2025, with a ceiling value of $7,000,000 and performance extending through September 24, 2032. This contract establishes a national medical gases supply relationship supporting the Military Health System, consolidating what was previously fragmented regional purchasing into a standardized procurement approach. The contract procures compressed and bulk liquid medical gases, specifically oxygen, nitrogen, nitrous oxide, and carbon dioxide, for delivery to over 100 military medical treatment facilities distributed across 12 geographic regions. No set-aside designation was used in the single-award competitive process, reflecting the awardee's demonstrated competitive qualifications and established capability to support sustained federal supply requirements.

The underlying Request for Information, posted January 23, 2024, indicated the Defense Logistics Agency's intent to develop this national program with an estimated annual spending requirement of $10 million and an anticipated 10-year period of performance. The contract structure employs indefinite quantity delivery order mechanisms to provide flexibility in responding to fluctuating demand across military medical treatment facilities. Linde Gas & Equipment Inc. brings substantial federal contracting experience in medical gas supply, including an existing $2.06 million Indefinite Delivery Contract with the Department of Veterans Affairs and multiple regional contracts with the Defense Logistics Agency under the same SPE2DH program. The vendor's established distribution infrastructure, medical gas certifications, and demonstrated ability to support healthcare facilities across multiple geographic regions positioned it to fulfill this critical national medical supply mission supporting Military Health System operations.
