About the company

Claflin Service Company, doing business as CME, operates as a full-and-open medical equipment and supplies wholesaler-distributor serving federal healthcare agencies as a prime contractor on a nationwide basis, with no recorded subcontract footprint. The Warwick, Rhode Island-based small business specializes in sourcing and distributing examination tables, medical furniture, diagnostic devices, storage carts, lighting equipment, and related accessories from brand-name manufacturers including Brewer, Metro Lifeline, Capsa Healthcare, and Intermetro to support federal healthcare modernization and standardization efforts.

CME's federal customer base is heavily concentrated in military and defense medical infrastructure. The Defense Logistics Agency Troop Support Medical division accounts for 2,756 awards (45% of total award count) carrying $93.9 million in combined potential value—representing nearly half of CME's total federal portfolio dollars. Within the Veterans Affairs system, CME holds active relationships across multiple Veterans Integrated Service Networks, with VISN 12 anchoring $13.7 million across 45 awards and VISN 1 representing $3.9 million across 198 awards. The Department of the Navy Bureau of Medicine and Surgery has placed 171 orders totaling $2.3 million, while the Indian Health Service and Army Medical Command round out the top five customer agencies. Across 171 distinct customer agencies, CME's top five account for 55% of recent awards but 62% of combined potential value—signaling that DLA's high-volume, lower-value orders dominate award count while VA's larger, more strategic procurements drive revenue concentration.

CME's work is anchored to three principal federal supply vehicles. The GSA Federal Supply Schedule (FSS) V797P4638A carries 2,019 task orders worth $21.8 million combined potential value, representing CME's primary ordering vehicle for routine medical equipment procurement across federal health agencies. Two Defense Logistics Agency indefinite delivery contracts—SPE2DH20D0046 and SPE2DH18D0004—together account for 2,737 task orders and $28.1 million in combined potential value, positioning CME as a pre-positioned supplier for DLA's day-to-day medical equipment and supplies fulfillment. A single-award Indefinite Delivery Contract with the Department of Veterans Affairs, valued at $7,984,064.11 and running through October 2027, authorizes nationwide provision of Brewer Company examination tables and accessories to support Veterans Health Administration modernization. CME also holds positions on the VA's Medical Equipment and Supplies schedule and the Multiple Award Schedule for specialized procurements.

Recent award activity shows declining trajectory: 371 awards in 2022, 381 in 2023, 338 in 2024, declining to 209 in 2025 and only 17 through September 2026. Within the next twenty-four months, eleven awards with combined potential value of $1 million reach ultimate completion, representing modest recompete exposure given CME's large existing order backlog. Across 6,128 total federal awards spanning more than two decades, CME has generated $188 million in combined potential value with $96.3 million obligated (51% capture rate). NAICS concentration splits between Medical, Dental, and Hospital Equipment and Supplies Merchant Wholesalers (2,902 awards) and Surgical and Medical Instrument Manufacturing (2,377 awards), with PSC codes running Hospital Furniture, Equipment, Utensils, and Supplies (3,022 awards) and Medical and Surgical Instruments, Equipment, and Supplies (2,429 awards). CME competes exclusively on full-and-open basis without set-aside designations across its prime footprint, competing directly against all vendors rather than leveraging small business reserve categories.
