Coast Ems, LLC

Coast Ems, LLC, doing business as Coast Ems, is a woman-owned small business based in Anaheim, California that supplies medical training equipment and simulation devices to federal agencies as a prime contractor, with 214 awards generating $8.2 million in combined potential value across the past several years.

Coast Ems operates across two primary contract vehicles: a $5 million single-award Indefinite Delivery Contract with the Defense Logistics Agency Troop Support Medical (awarded November 2021, running through November 2026) and a $2 million General Services Administration Multiple Award Schedule contract. The DLA IDC dominates the footprint, generating 189 task orders worth $896 thousand in combined potential value, while the GSA MAS vehicle spans 20 task orders worth $270 thousand. The company competes on full-and-open footing; none of the awards carry set-aside designations, though one GSA MAS order from the Vermont National Guard and one from the Bureau of Diplomatic Security were issued under Total Small Business set-asides. Coast Ems holds no subcontract work in the source data—100% of awards are primes.

Concentration is extreme. The Defense Logistics Agency Troop Support Medical accounts for 190 awards ($5.9 million combined potential value, or 72% of total dollars), with delivery orders spanning narrowly focused medical training supplies: advanced venipuncture arms (light and dark variants), clinical female and male pelvic trainers, chest drain and needle decompression training equipment, wound closure pads, umbilical cords, catheterization trainer sets, professional skin pads, and specialized procedural simulation devices. Typical DLA delivery orders range from a few hundred dollars (individual skin pads or wound closure packs) to around $50,000 (comprehensive trainer sets). GSA Federal Acquisition Service captures the second tier with 9 awards ($2 million combined potential value), primarily through the MAS vehicle, ordering similar medical training products alongside niche items such as rescue manikins, ZOLL AED trainers, and signs or advertising displays. The Department of Health and Human Services Indian Health Service, the Department of the Air Force, the Defense Health Agency, the Department of State Bureau of Diplomatic Security, the Veterans Integrated Service Network, and Naval Sea Systems Command together account for fewer than 10 awards and negligible dollar share. Category concentration aligns with the product portfolio: 190 awards fall under NAICS 425110 (Medical, Dental, and Hospital Equipment and Supplies Merchant Wholesalers), with the remainder scattered across manufacturing codes. PSC coding is similarly tight—188 awards under Hospital Furniture, Equipment, Utensils, And Supplies, with 13 under Training Aids.

Award volume peaked in 2023 with 67 awards, declined to 41 in 2024, recovered to 47 in 2025, and has slowed to 6 year-to-date in 2026. Only one award faces ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, representing a $26 thousand recompete exposure—the IDC vehicle itself extends through November 2026 and carries no imminent recompete risk in the twenty-four-month window. Coast Ems' federal footprint is tightly coupled to DLA's medical supply chain; customer concentration and product specificity leave minimal pipeline diversity beyond that core relationship.
