Bradsher, James E

Bradsher, James E, doing business as Priority Care Transit EMS Central, provides non-emergency ambulance and wheelchair transportation services to the Department of Veterans Affairs as a service-disabled veteran-owned small business prime contractor operating exclusively within a single indefinite delivery contract framework. The company is an SBA-certified SDVOSB and small disadvantaged business sole proprietorship headquartered in Lake Dallas, Texas, with SDVOSB and SBA veteran-owned certifications valid through June 11, 2029.

Priority Care Transit EMS Central operates exclusively under VISN 17 (Veterans Integrated Service Network 17), the VA's regional health administration serving the Dallas metropolitan area and North Texas. The company holds four single-award indefinite delivery contracts awarded April 1, 2022, with ceilings of $24 million (North Texas C2 Wheelchair Transportation Services, SDVOSB set-aside), $10 million (North Texas B2 Wheelchair Transportation Services), $7 million (North Texas D2 Wheelchair Transportation Services, SDVOSB set-aside), and $6 million (North Texas A2 Wheelchair Transportation Services). All four IDIQs run through March 31, 2027, and procure firm fixed-price delivery orders for non-emergency patient transport to and from VA medical facilities. The company also holds a single-award ambulance-transportation IDIQ (details in source indicate multiple ambulance service lines: A1, B1, C1, D1). Recent representative delivery orders include a $15.56 million order for North Texas C2 Wheelchair Transportation Services Ordering Period 2 awarded December 1, 2024 (completion March 31, 2027), a $2.75 million delivery order for North Texas C2 Wheelchair Transportation Services awarded June 1, 2026 (completion September 30, 2026), and four ambulance transportation delivery orders totaling $2.66 million awarded June 1, 2026 (completion December 31, 2026). Across all 57 prime awards spanning 2022 through mid-2026, the company holds a combined potential value of $150 million, with $75.5 million obligated to date.

Customer concentration is absolute: VISN 17 accounts for 100% of awards and 100% of combined potential value. All work is performed in Dallas, Texas. The company competes entirely under SDVOSB set-asides on the underlying IDIQs, though most individual delivery orders carry no set-aside designation because they derive from pre-reserved vehicle awards. Thirteen delivery orders with combined potential value of $25.8 million reach ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months and face recompete risk.

The Service Contract Inventory dataset shows SCI-reportable invoicing of $28.1 million in fiscal year 2023 across 1,444 full-time equivalents performing federal services contracts; FY2022 and FY2024 SCI records carry no reported invoicing. The government-paid hourly rate distribution derived from invoiced dollars and contractor hours runs a median of $3.72 per hour, with rates spanning the 10th percentile ($1.32/hr) through the 90th percentile ($18.56/hr), reflecting the labor-intensive, non-emergency transportation services delivery model. Across SCI-reportable prime contracts, the company performed 100% of contractor hours with no named subcontractor engagement.
