About the company

Baxter Healthcare Corporation, doing business as Baxter Health Systems, manufactures and distributes intravenous solutions, pharmaceuticals, medical devices, and surgical supplies to federal healthcare agencies as a prime contractor on full-and-open competition, carrying no SBA set-aside designations. Headquartered in Deerfield, Illinois, Baxter is a for-profit manufacturer of goods operating across primary NAICS 325412 (Pharmaceutical Preparation Manufacturing) and PSC 6505 (Drugs and Biologicals), with a corporate structure encompassing eleven subsidiaries including Welch Allyn, Inc., Hill-Rom, Inc., Bardy Diagnostics Inc., and Voalte Inc.

Baxter's federal work centers on supplying frozen intravenous antibiotics, electrolyte solutions, total parenteral nutrition formulations, pharmacy compounding equipment, noninvasive cardiac monitoring systems, and administration sets to the Department of Veterans Affairs, Defense Logistics Agency Medical Supply Chain, and the Department of the Navy. Representative recent prime awards include a $387,925.87 delivery order from Veterans Integrated Service Network 22 on August 20, 2026, for frozen IV antibiotics (Cefazolin, Cefepime, Oxacillin, Ceftriaxone) with base performance through August 19, 2027 and four optional one-year extensions; a $114,588 purchase order from Veterans Integrated Service Network 20 on August 17, 2026, for one ExactaMix PRO 1200 pharmacy compounder unit with 24/7 technical support and training; a $30,582 delivery order from Veterans Integrated Service Network 9 on May 1, 2026, for total parenteral nutrition supplies through April 30, 2028; and recurring high-volume delivery orders from Defense Logistics Agency Medical Supply Chain for sodium chloride solutions (0.9%, 3%), lactated Ringers injection, Plasma-Lyte, and specialty medications such as norepinephrine and Nexterone in volumes ranging from $107 to $13,392 per order, with typical completion windows of one to three days.

Customer concentration is extreme and dollar-weighted toward the Veterans Health Administration. The top five customer agencies by potential-value ranking represent 5% of combined potential value; Veterans Integrated Service Network 12 alone anchors $520.7 million (153 awards), while Defense Logistics Agency Troop Support Medical carries the largest award count at 2,016 orders for $76.6 million combined potential value. The Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration systems dominate the portfolio — VISN 22, VISN 15, VISN 2, and other VA networks account for hundreds of awards across the source coverage window. By award count, Defense Logistics Agency Troop Support Medical leads with 2,016 orders (10% of recent awards), but by dollar magnitude the DVA's VISN networks drive the spend concentration. Activity accelerated from 244 awards in 2022 to 411 in 2025, with 321 awards in 2026 year-to-date, indicating sustained and growing demand for Baxter's medical supply portfolio.

Baxter holds positions on two principal vehicle types: multiple Indefinite Delivery Contracts and Federal Supply Schedules. The top IDIQs and schedules include Indefinite Delivery Contract V797P9112 (8,273 task orders, $13.3 million combined potential value), Federal Supply Schedule V797P4320A (4,617 task orders, $10.8 million), Federal Supply Schedule V797P5840X (3,099 task orders, $7.1 million), Federal Supply Schedule V797P5798X (2,921 task orders, $13 million), and Indefinite Delivery Contract SPE2D019D0004 (1,227 task orders, $7.7 million). These vehicles account for the bulk of Baxter's federal task-order activity, particularly the high-frequency, low-value Medical Supply Chain delivery orders characteristic of logistics-network pharmaceutical and IV-solution procurement.

Baxter holds a single blanket purchase agreement with Veterans Integrated Service Network 8 for total parenteral nutrition supplies (ceiling $150,000, through May 19, 2031) and the multi-year frozen IV antibiotics IDIQ with VISN 22 (ceiling $1.9 million, through August 19, 2027 with four optional one-year extensions). Eighteen awards face ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, carrying combined potential value of $2.9 million and representing a modest recompete exposure relative to the $14.85 billion total portfolio, reflecting the contract-vehicle-dependent and routine-replenishment nature of federal medical supply purchasing.

Baxter subcontracts through Cardinal Health 200, LLC on medical/surgical equipment and supplies, including trauma region kits, surgical packs, sensors, instruments, and personal protective equipment for Defense Logistics Agency and Department of Defense medical facilities. The source indicates one sub-award without a named prime (a bandage gauze delivery, June 2, 2026), with the preponderance of named sub-work flowing through Cardinal Health 200, LLC relationships dating from late 2025 through early 2026.

Federal contracting volume reflects Baxter's position as a manufacturer-direct supplier of commoditized medical consumables and equipment to the federal healthcare supply chain. The 33,307 prime awards (100% of recent activity, excluding 135 sub-awards at 0.4%) underscore Baxter's direct-to-customer procurement model rather than a subcontracting footprint; the company competes for task orders on established federal supply schedules and IDIQs issued by VA networks, DLA, and military medical commands, with no set-aside categories in use across the visible award set. Category concentration by NAICS and PSC reflects the core business: Pharmaceutical Preparation Manufacturing (16,404 awards), Surgical and Medical Instrument Manufacturing (5,402 awards), and Drugs and Biologicals PSC (19,055 awards) dominate the portfolio, with secondary exposure in hospital equipment, supplies, and medical device maintenance.
