C & A Industries, Inc.

C & A Industries, Inc. is a parent company that operates in the healthcare staffing and workforce solutions industry. Its primary subsidiary engaging in federal contracting is Aureus Medical Management Services LLC, which does business as Aureus Medicalgroup. Aureus provides a wide range of clinical and medical support staffing services to federal government agencies, particularly the Department of Health and Human Services Indian Health Service and the Department of Veterans Affairs. The company specializes in supplying healthcare professionals such as nurses, pharmacists, laboratory technicians, radiology technicians, and other allied health professionals to support federal healthcare delivery programs nationwide.

Through its federal contracts, Aureus has provided staffing for various medical roles including registered nurses, certified medical technologists, laboratory technicians, CT technicians, ultrasound technicians, radiology technologists, pharmacists, and physical therapists. These professionals have been placed at Indian Health Service facilities, primarily in rural and tribal areas such as Rosebud, South Dakota and Crow Agency, Montana, as well as at VA medical centers. The majority of Aureus' federal work comes through firm-fixed price delivery orders against established indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity (IDIQ) contracts or the GSA Professional and Allied Healthcare Staffing Services schedule. While most awards are not associated with set-asides, some recent contracts have supported COVID-19 response efforts. Aureus typically serves as the prime contractor on these awards, providing temporary staffing solutions to enhance healthcare services for Native American populations and veterans across the United States.
