Alabama Artificial Limb & Orthopedic Service, Inc.

Alabama Artificial Limb & Orthopedic Service, Inc., doing business as Formotion Clinic, a foreign-owned prosthetics and orthotic device manufacturer, holds a specialized niche supplying customized artificial limbs, orthotic braces, prosthetic components, and rehabilitation equipment exclusively to the Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration as a prime contractor on full-and-open (non-set-aside) purchase orders and blanket purchase agreement call orders.

The company, based in Montgomery, Alabama, operates as a subsidiary of Bulow Holdings LLC, a foreign-owned parent entity. Alabama Artificial Limb competes without SBA set-aside designations or socioeconomic certifications, relying instead on technical expertise in prosthetic fabrication and established relationships with VA regional networks. The company has been registered in the System for Award Management since March 2008 and holds no active subcontracting relationships; all observed awards name it as sole prime with no major subcontractors.

Customer concentration is extreme and deliberate. The top two VA customers account for 99 percent of recent awards by count and 100 percent of potential value across all customers: VA Veterans Integrated Service Network 7 (VISN 7, covering Alabama, Georgia, and South Carolina) holds 205 awards valued at $14.8 million combined potential value, and VA Veterans Integrated Service Network 16 holds 168 awards valued at $3.5 million. The remaining three customers—VISN 8, VISN 17, and the VA office-level organization—account for $79 thousand combined. The vendor's entire award footprint consists of purchase orders (typically $10,000 to $82,000 per order) and blanket purchase agreement calls for individual prosthetic devices, components, and services including below-knee prostheses, above-knee prostheses, transfemoral devices, molded sockets, prosthetic knees and feet, orthotic braces, and surgical implants.

The company holds two primary indefinite delivery vehicles: a $5.5 million multiple-award Blanket Purchase Agreement with VISN 7 effective through May 31, 2027, which has generated 29 task orders, and a now-expired $250,000 single-award Indefinite Delivery Contract with VISN 7 (original period through May 2022). Historical vehicles include VA Artificial Limb Manufacturing and Services (2016–2021), which produced 44 task orders valued at $530 thousand, and Indefinite Delivery Contract VA247P0912, which generated 65 task orders valued at $639 thousand. All ordering activity flows through these vehicles; the vendor does not compete full-and-open beyond the VA system.

Activity shows consistent but modest scale. Awards per year have ranged from 38 (2022) to 58 (2024), with 46 awards in 2025 and 7 through April 2026. Combined potential value across 398 recent awards stands at $18.3 million, with $7.4 million obligated (40 percent execution rate). The recompete cliff is minimal: only three awards with ultimate completion dates in the next twenty-four months carry combined potential value of $90 thousand. Alabama Artificial Limb's primary capability framing aligns with NAICS 332611 (Surgical Appliance and Supplies Manufacturing), which accounts for 272 of its awards; 66 awards fall under Offices of All Other Miscellaneous Health Practitioners. The underlying contract vehicle structure is straightforward: firm fixed-price purchase orders and BPA calls, each supporting a single veteran's prosthetic requirement, with no visible competitive exposure outside the VA prosthetics procurement ecosystem.
