Chudy Group LLC

Chudy Group LLC, doing business as Tcgrx, manufactures pharmacy automation equipment and delivers maintenance, repair, and installation services to the Department of Veterans Affairs as a prime contractor on a full-and-open, non-set-aside basis across 358 federal awards. The company is a for-profit limited liability company and subsidiary of Becton, Dickinson and Co., headquartered in Durham, North Carolina, competing exclusively as a prime (100% of awards) with no subcontractor footprint.

Tcgrx's federal business is almost entirely concentrated within the VA's Veterans Health Administration, where it supplies automated tablet packaging (ATP) systems, medication dispensing and verification equipment, unit dose packaging machines, and related pharmacy automation software and services. The vendor's core offering is hardware and mechanical systems for medication management—not professional services—though recent awards increasingly include installation, programming, training, and extended maintenance contracts. Representative work includes a $1.34 million delivery order from VA VISN 5 (awarded September 30, 2024, completion November 30, 2025) for installation, programming, and training of pill packing equipment at a Durham facility; a $728.6 million delivery order from VA VISN 15 (August 24, 2023, ultimate completion August 23, 2024) for pill packaging equipment, maintenance, and training; and a $599.4 million delivery order from VA VISN 20 (September 28, 2021, completion September 27, 2026) for Tcgrx BULLSEYE service maintenance across Portland-area facilities.

Customer concentration within the VA is extreme. The top five VA VISNs account for 43% of all awards by count, but VA VISN 12 alone anchors 71% of combined potential value at $133.3 million across just 22 awards—a massive spike driven by high-value equipment contracts rather than volume. By award count, the top five customers are VA VISN 4 (43 awards, $6 million), VA VISN 19 (35 awards, $3.1 million), VA VISN 21 (28 awards, $3.7 million), VA VISN 1 (24 awards, $1.8 million), and VA VISN 16 (24 awards, $2.4 million). The divergence between count-based and value-based rankings reflects Tcgrx's role as both a recurring task-order supplier of maintenance services (many small orders) and an infrequent supplier of large capital equipment (few large orders concentrated in VISN 12).

Tcgrx holds two primary vehicle positions: a $61.2 million GSA Multiple Award Schedule contract for Medical Equipment and Supplies (FSS-65-II-A) that anchors 182 task orders ($39.9 million combined potential value) and a $250,000 single-award indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity contract with VA VISN 16 for preventive maintenance and repair of prescription packaging systems. A third vehicle—a single-award IDIQ with VA VISN 19 for VISN maintenance and pill packing services (awarded August 2, 2024, ceiling $487.9 thousand, completion August 1, 2029)—carries 5 task orders ranging from $4.7 thousand to $99.7 thousand. The GSA Schedule is the primary funnel: nearly all task orders against it flow from various VA VISNs.

Activity has declined year over year. Awards per year dropped from 27 in 2022 to 24 in 2023, 19 in 2024, 7 in 2025, and 1 in 2026 (through July 3). This decline tracks the VA's shift away from capital equipment procurement (which generated the largest individual awards in Tcgrx's portfolio) toward smaller, routine maintenance task orders. Fourteen awards (combined potential value $2.4 million) reach ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, presenting recompete exposure concentrated in small maintenance orders rather than high-value equipment contracts.

Service Contract Inventory data shows minimal SCI-reportable activity: $169 thousand in invoiced revenue in FY2023 across 0.1 FTEs, with zero SCI invoicing in FY2022 and FY2024. This reflects Tcgrx's predominant business in goods and equipment rather than billable federal services. When SCI-reportable service work does occur, government-paid hourly rates run median $936 per hour with a 90th percentile around $1,113 per hour—consistent with specialized equipment support and technical labor. The vendor performs all work directly with zero subcontractor hours on SCI-reportable primes.

Tcgrx operates in NAICS codes centered on medical device manufacturing—Surgical and Medical Instrument Manufacturing dominates (200 awards), followed by Optical Instrument and Lens Manufacturing (82 awards) and equipment repair codes (50 combined awards). PSC codes align: Maintenance/Repair/Rebuild of Equipment for Medical, Dental, and Veterinary Supplies (122 awards) and Medical and Surgical Instruments, Equipment, and Supplies (121 awards) account for 68% of awards. The vendor is a niche, specialized equipment supplier to VA pharmacy operations with no diversification into other federal agencies, customer segments, or service lines.
