Bland & Associates PC

Bland & Associates PC, a for-profit Subchapter S corporation headquartered in Omaha, Nebraska, provides healthcare financial auditing, medical coding review, compliance monitoring, and related professional services to federal civilian agencies as a prime contractor (96% of recent awards), with particular concentration in Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services work. The firm competes predominantly full-and-open on the GSA Multiple Award Schedule and holds no SBA set-asides except for total small business designations on certain task orders.

CMS dominates the customer base and revenue profile. Of 79 total awards across the past five years (combined potential value $324.7 million), 67 awards worth $282.1 million — 87% of potential value — fund CMS programs and oversight activities. The remaining customer agencies account for less than 6% of combined potential value combined: GSA Federal Acquisition Service holds three awards ($22 million), Health Resources and Services Administration two awards ($13 million), and three other agencies hold single awards under $500 thousand each. This concentration reflects Bland & Associates' core competency in Medicare Advantage Organization and Prescription Drug Plan one-third financial audits, cost-based Medicare Managed Care Organization cost-report audits, and medical coding review services.

Recent activity shows declining award volume but substantial recompete exposure. The source captures two awards in 2026 (both from CMS, awarded September 2026), three in 2025, seven in 2024, five in 2023, and three in 2022. Six awards with combined potential value $155.9 million will reach ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, creating near-term recompete risk. The largest single award is a $149.5 million BPA call from CMS for medical coding review services issued September 25, 2026, with performance in Nottingham, Maryland and completion September 24, 2027. A companion $1.34 million BPA call from CMS for medical coding review under the Medicare Managed Care Organizations Cost Reports BPA was issued September 15, 2026 (performance in Omaha, completion September 14, 2027). Other recent dollars include a $2.73 million total small business delivery order from CMS for a SOC 1 Type II examination of Medicare Advantage MAC Groups CGS and GuideWell (awarded December 16, 2024, performance in Omaha, completion December 15, 2029) and a $2.53 million total small business delivery order for Medicare cost plan reimbursement functions (awarded September 15, 2024, performance in Omaha, completion September 14, 2029).

Bland & Associates holds two primary vehicle positions. The GSA Multiple Award Schedule anchors the footprint: 62 task orders with $452.6 million combined potential value, spanning the firm's core medical coding review and audit service lines. More recently, the firm was awarded a seat on the OASIS+ Total Small Business set-aside indefinite-delivery contract (GSA Federal Acquisition Service, awarded December 19, 2024, five-year base through December 18, 2029) across the Management and Advisory functional domain. A single-award BPA with the Provider Relief Bureau (awarded December 12, 2023, $13 million ceiling, running through December 14, 2025) represents non-CMS healthcare audit work, though this contract carries a Notice of Termination for Convenience in the source data.

SCI-reported federal service-contract invoicing totals $14.8 million across FY2022–FY2025, representing a subset of the vendor's federal activity above the $150 thousand reporting threshold and excluding goods, products, and the largest firm-fixed-price orders. Prime invoicing by year ran $5 million (FY2022, 14.1 FTEs), $2.8 million (FY2023, 7.9 FTEs), $3.3 million (FY2024, 12.5 FTEs), and $3.7 million (FY2025, 12.3 FTEs). Government-paid hourly rates on prime contracts ranged from $0.00 to $286.92 per hour, with a median of $161.89/hr (reflecting both junior audit staff and partner-level labor). The firm self-performed 99% of SCI-reportable contractor hours with minimal subcontractor engagement — only four named subcontractors appeared across all prime contracts, averaging less than 1% of total hours. GSA Schedule labor categories span 17 classifications from Business Analyst I ($79.92/hr, high school, no clearance) through Shareholder ($286.92/hr, bachelor's degree, 8 years experience), with no security-cleared positions offered.

Bland & Associates operates as a subcontractor on a small number of federal programs. Recent sub awards include data analytics and program support for the Medicare Prescription Drug Provisions of the Inflation Reduction Act (subcontract to Research Triangle Institute, awarded February 13, 2025), implementation and monitoring support for the Transforming Maternal Health model (subcontract to National Opinion Research Center, awarded December 19, 2024), and chart abstraction of RWHAP recipient clinical data (subcontract to Mathematica Inc., awarded December 13, 2024). These represent 4% of total awards and sit outside the core CMS audit business, routing healthcare compliance and data support work through larger research and evaluation contractors.

Bland & Associates' NAICS profile reflects its accounting and consulting footprint: 51 awards under Offices of Certified Public Accountants, 12 under Other Accounting Services, and four under Administrative Management and General Management Consulting Services. Primary services procurement codes cluster around Support-Professional/Other (26 awards), Support-Management/Accounting (23 awards), and Support-Management/Auditing (23 awards), confirming the vendor's positioning as a specialized healthcare audit and compliance firm rather than a broad management-consulting house.
