Lumibird Medical Inc.

Lumibird Medical Inc., a for-profit medical device manufacturer headquartered in Eden Prairie, Minnesota, supplies ophthalmic ultrasound systems, diagnostic laser equipment, and maintenance services exclusively as a prime contractor to the Department of Veterans Affairs, Defense Health Agency, and Army Medical Command. The company competes predominantly on full-and-open purchase orders and delivery orders, with mixed use of Total Small Business Set-Asides across roughly 40% of recent awards; the vendor holds no 8(a), HUBZone, SDVOSB, or other federal set-aside designations.

Lumibird's capability footprint centers on three concrete product lines: Ellex ophthalmic ultrasound systems (ABSolu and EyeCubed consoles with A-scan, B-scan, and biometry probes); Tango Ophthalmic YAG and Selective Laser Trabeculoplasty (SLT) laser systems for intraocular pressure management and cataract treatment; and maintenance and repair services for those platforms. Representative work includes a $106,990 purchase order from Veterans Integrated Service Network 12 for an ABSolu Quantel Medical ophthalmic ultrasound console with standard A-probe (awarded September 2024), a $79,220 delivery order from Veterans Integrated Service Network 16 for a Tango Reflex Neo laser system with installation and training (awarded August 2023), and a $149,160 purchase order from Veterans Integrated Service Network 20 for three Ellex EyeCubed ultrasound systems with DICOM compliance and Zeiss Forum integration supporting the VA's Electronic Health Records Modernization Cerner Initiative (awarded September 2022).

Customer concentration is heavy across Veterans Integrated Service Network regional medical centers. The top five VISNs by award count account for 29% of all awards, with VISN 12 anchoring both volume and dollars at $15.1 million combined potential value across 17 awards. By potential value, VISN 12 dominates at $15.1 million, followed by VISN 22 ($1 million across 18 awards), Army Medical Command ($847 thousand across 15 awards), VISN 15 ($844 thousand across 17 awards), and VISN 20 ($830 thousand across 11 awards). The Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration accounts for the vast majority of Lumibird's portfolio; Defense Health Agency and Army Medical Command together represent secondary customer channels for ultrasound and laser procurements.

Lumibird's primary vehicle is the GSA Schedule Medical Equipment and Supplies (FSS-65-II-A), from which 180 task orders carry $8 million in combined potential value. The vendor also holds two smaller indefinite delivery contracts (36C10G21D0033 and 36C10G21D0032) with the VA carrying $152 thousand and $52 thousand respectively. Award activity has decelerated sharply: ten awards in 2022 dropped to two in 2024 and three in 2025, with six awards in 2026 so far. Only three awards face ultimate completion in the next twenty-four months, carrying combined potential value of $72 thousand, indicating minimal near-term recompete exposure but also a substantially reduced pipeline velocity. The vendor operates as a 100% prime contractor with no subcontract footprint, placing all work and risk directly on its own execution. Recent awards split between Eden Prairie, Minnesota (administrative and performance base), Minneapolis, and field deployments to VA medical centers nationwide, with one award (March 2022 DHA order) performed from Rockwall, Texas.
