Armstrong Medical Supply LLC

Armstrong Medical Supply LLC, a Houston-based veteran-owned small business, supplies patient mobility devices and medical equipment to the Department of Veterans Affairs as a prime contractor across multiple GSA Federal Supply Schedule vehicles, competing predominantly under full-and-open procurements without set-aside designations.

Armstrong holds SBA certifications as both a Veteran-Owned Small Business (VOSB) and Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB), valid through November 27, 2028, and is self-certified as a small disadvantaged business. The company operates as a limited liability partnership structured for profit. Its federal footprint centers on medical equipment and supplies procurement, with 468 prime contract awards spanning 24 federal customer agencies. The portfolio encompasses 283 awards under NAICS 541512 (Surgical and Medical Instrument Manufacturing), 112 awards under NAICS 339113 (Surgical Appliance and Supplies Manufacturing), and 28 awards under merchant wholesale distribution, with 458 awards coded to PSC Medical and Surgical Instruments, Equipment, and Supplies.

Customer concentration is extreme and concentrated within VA networks. The top customer by award count, Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration Veterans Integrated Service Network 17 (VHA VISN 17), accounts for 266 of 468 awards (57%) with combined potential value of $16.2 million. However, the top customer by potential value, VHA VISN 12, represents only 8 awards but carries $354.5 million combined potential value — nearly 92% of Armstrong's entire portfolio ceiling. This represents a single large-dollar Federal Supply Schedule contract awarded November 15, 2023, with a $22 million ceiling running through November 14, 2028, covering patient mobility devices (wheelchairs, rollators, walkers, Hoyer lifts) and medical supplies (surgical implants, prosthetics, oxygen concentrators, and personal protective equipment) under FSC Group 65, Part II, Section A. Three additional VA networks (VHA VISN 20, VHA VISN 22, and VHA VISN 5) collectively account for $9.6 million, while Defense Logistics Agency Troop Support Medical holds 26 awards valued at $137 thousand.

Armstrong places delivery orders and purchase orders through two parent vehicles: the Medical Equipment and Supplies (FSS-65-II-A) Federal Supply Schedule, which generated 280 task orders with $24.4 million combined potential value, and the Patient Mobility Devices (FSS-65-II-F) Federal Supply Schedule, which generated 56 task orders with $4.3 million combined potential value. Representative recent delivery orders include a $204.7 thousand award from VHA VISN 6 for drive rollators (April 28, 2026), a $139.2 thousand Total Small Business set-aside delivery order from VHA VISN 6 for rollators to the Raeford Road VA Medical Center (June 23, 2025), and a $64.8 thousand delivery order from VHA VISN 17 for stock rollators (September 23, 2024). Earlier awards included a $148.4 million delivery order from VHA VISN 17 for wheelchairs (March 1, 2022) and a $80 thousand delivery order from VHA VISN 17 for wheelchairs and rotators (March 16, 2022).

Activity has declined materially. Armstrong received 19 awards in 2022, declining to 10 in 2023, 6 in 2024, 2 in 2025, and 1 in 2026. Combined potential value across all awards stands at $385.7 million, but only $23.4 million (6%) has been obligated to date. Only one award faces ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months — valued at $205 thousand — indicating minimal recompete exposure in the near term, though the $22 million FSS-65-II-A ceiling expires November 14, 2028, representing potential future recompete activity. Armstrong holds no subcontract awards and operates as a pure prime contractor without parent-company relationships or significant sub engagement.
