About the company
Cambridge Electronic Design LIMITED, doing business as CED, is a United Kingdom–based manufacturer and merchant wholesaler of laboratory and medical instrumentation that supplies scientific data recorders, electrophysiology interfaces, and related equipment to federal research and clinical programs exclusively as a prime contractor on small-value purchase orders. The company is a for-profit limited liability company with no SBA set-aside designations; it competes exclusively in full-and-open procurements.
CED's federal footprint is fragmented across nineteen distinct customer agencies with minimal repeat ordering. The top five customers account for 43% of recent awards by count and 58% by combined potential value: the Department of the Army Medical Command leads with seven awards totaling $224 thousand, followed by the National Institute on Drug Abuse (six awards, $93 thousand), Veterans Integrated Service Network 5 (four awards, $83 thousand), the National Institutes of Health Office of the Director (two awards, $53 thousand), and Veterans Integrated Service Network 8 (three awards, $41 thousand). The customer base skews toward VA health systems and NIH research institutes rather than defense or civilian IT agencies. Award activity has been sparse and episodic — one award per year from 2023 through 2026 — with fifty-four total awards spanning more than two decades and a combined potential value of $852 thousand. Only one award ($20 thousand) faces ultimate completion inside the next twenty-four months.
CED's capability portfolio centers on laboratory instrumentation: analytical equipment, electromedical apparatus, medical and surgical instruments, and data acquisition hardware. Concrete recent examples include a $19,952 scientific data recorder delivered to the VA's Veterans Integrated Service Network 21 as of September 2026, a $17,335 Micro 1401-04 unit with Spike 2 software for respiratory flow and volume measurement at the VA Airborne Hazards and Burn Pits Center of Excellence in East Orange, New Jersey (July 2024), a $10,780 high-performance lab interface for VA research programs (August 2023), and a $10,035 instrument purchase order from the National Institute of Mental Health (September 2025). CED operates entirely as a prime contractor on direct purchase orders; it has no subcontract presence in the federal space.
