Distribution Systems International, Inc.

Distribution Systems International, Inc., doing business as D S I, is a Lake Forest, California-based small business manufacturer of modular medical storage solutions that operates as a prime contractor exclusively on federal healthcare contracts, with no subcontractor relationships. The company manufactures and delivers cabinets, shelving systems, storage carts, workstations, and organizational equipment to federal healthcare agencies through multiple contracting vehicles and set-aside arrangements.

D S I competes predominantly under total small business set-asides, which account for the majority of its prime award footprint. The company holds a $4.149 million General Services Administration Medical Equipment and Supplies Schedule contract (FSS-65-II-A) running through December 2030, which anchors 109 task orders valued at $7.4 million and provides access to a catalog of over 200 modular medical storage products. The company also operates under the Federal Supply Schedule V797P4602A, which has generated 23 task orders worth $588 thousand. Recent representative awards include a $303,094 group-purchase order from GSA's Federal Acquisition Service in March 2026 for medical storage and organizational items under the FSS-65-II-A schedule, a $241,723 total small business set-aside delivery order from Veterans Integrated Service Network 20 in January 2026 for on-track system rolling racks, and a $143,100 total small business set-aside delivery order from Veterans Integrated Service Network 19 in August 2026 for catheter cabinet supply under FSS-65-II-A.

Customer concentration is narrow and within the Veterans Affairs system. The Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration dominates the portfolio, with five Veterans Integrated Service Networks (VISN 22, VISN 8, VISN 10, VISN 7, and VISN 1) accounting for 51% of awards and nine and four awards respectively representing $10.8 million combined potential value across the portfolio. VISN 12 alone represents $10.8 million in combined potential value (nine awards), while VISN 8 holds both significant volume (20 awards) and value ($1.5 million). The Department of the Navy Bureau of Medicine and Surgery accounts for 11 awards and $1.2 million combined potential value. Overall, D S I serves 26 distinct federal customer agencies, but Veterans Affairs and Defense Health Agency facilities represent the strategic customer base.

Activity has grown modestly but inconsistently over the past five years—one award in 2022, three in 2023, six in 2024, three in 2025, and six year-to-date in 2026. The vendor carries a modest recompete cliff of four awards (combined potential value $263 thousand) reaching completion within the next twenty-four months. Across NAICS classification, 101 of 184 awards fall under All Other Miscellaneous Manufacturing, with 28 under Surgical and Medical Instrument Manufacturing and 23 under Surgical Appliance and Supplies Manufacturing. The PSC footprint is similarly concentrated in Medical and Surgical Instruments, Equipment, and Supplies (68 awards), Hospital Furniture, Equipment, Utensils, and Supplies (50 awards), and Cabinets, Lockers, Bins, and Shelving (33 awards). The company's combined potential value across all 184 awards stands at $20.4 million, with $9.7 million obligated to date.
