Guldmann, Inc.

Guldmann, Inc., a foreign-owned for-profit healthcare mobility solutions provider based in Tampa, Florida, sells ceiling-mounted patient lift systems, related accessories, and installation and maintenance services to the Department of Veterans Affairs as a prime contractor across 23 distinct federal customer agencies. The vendor operates predominantly in the full-and-open competitive space (100% of recent awards are prime contracts) and does not hold SBA set-asides; however, a subset of awards carry Total Small Business designations on an individual contract basis rather than as a standing vendor certification.

Guldmann's product and service portfolio centers on GH3 and GH3+ series ceiling lifts rated for 550 to 1,250 pounds capacity, along with rails, slings, position locks, gait-training systems, and comprehensive lifecycle support including installation, preventive maintenance, annual inspections, corrective repairs, and staff training. Representative work includes a $1.497 billion purchase order from Veterans Integrated Service Network 8 for patient ceiling lifts, installation, and replacement services at West Palm Beach VA Medical Center (June 2026); a $1.683 million definitive contract with VISN 15 for Guldmann patient lift maintenance spanning preventive maintenance, inspections, emergency repairs, and corrective maintenance through November 2028 (December 2025); and a $936,095 purchase order from VISN 12 covering ceiling lift maintenance and program support services under Executive Order 14398 at Clement J. Zablocki VA Medical Center and subordinate clinics in Wisconsin through September 2030 (October 2025). Equipment specifications regularly call for Traverse or H-style rails, integrated scales operable via handset, emergency stop and lowering features with mechanical and electrical backup, and compatibility with multiple sling modalities.

Customer concentration is extremely high and narrow. The top five Veterans Integrated Service Networks account for 51% of all awards by count and 53% of combined potential value. VISN 12 leads by dollars ($14.2 million across 59 awards), while VISN 15 leads by count (93 awards, $13.3 million combined potential value). VISN 22 follows closely (74 awards, $9.8 million), VISN 10 (47 awards, $5.6 million), and VISN 16 (46 awards, $2.8 million) round out the active set. All top customers are VA Health Administration networks; the vendor has worked with 23 distinct federal customer agencies total, but the Department of Veterans Affairs and its subordinate networks dominate the footprint. The source does not indicate material presence with Department of Defense, military hospitals, civilian federal agencies, or any non-VA customer above low-frequency status.

Guldmann sits on the Federal Supply Schedule V797P4680A (380 task orders, $42.2 million combined potential value) and holds an Indefinite Delivery Contract with VA25517D0087 (19 task orders, $6.2 million combined potential value). These two vehicles account for the majority of task-order activity and provide recurring ordering authority across multiple VISNs. Activity has grown modestly in recent years — eight awards in 2022, declining to six in 2023 and 2024, then accelerating to 13 in 2025 and 15 through mid-2026. The recompete cliff shows 16 awards (combined potential value $4.3 million) with ultimate completion in the next twenty-four months, representing moderate recompete exposure concentrated in maintenance and lifecycle-support contracts.

Guldmann's award portfolio is concentrated in medical device supply and maintenance — 419 awards fall under NAICS 339113 (Surgical and Medical Instrument Manufacturing), 113 under NAICS 339114 (Surgical Appliance and Supplies Manufacturing), and 41 under NAICS 423450 (Medical, Dental, and Hospital Equipment and Supplies Merchant Wholesalers). The top PSC is 6520 (Medical and Surgical Instruments, Equipment, and Supplies) covering 397 awards, followed by PSC H301 (Hospital Furniture, Equipment, Utensils, and Supplies) with 100 awards and PSC J065 (Maintenance, Repair, Rebuild of Medical, Dental, and Veterinary Equipment) with 52 awards. The source contains only four Service Contract Inventory records (three prime, one sub) spanning FY2022–FY2024, with zero SCI-reportable invoiced revenue and zero FTEs captured in that dataset; SCI does not meaningfully cover Guldmann's federal services activity because the vendor's work is primarily goods (equipment procurement, installation, and maintenance on capital equipment) rather than labor-intensive service contracts above the $150,000 reporting threshold.

The vendor operates as a 100% prime contractor in its federal footprint — 623 of 624 total awards are prime contracts, with one named subcontract award for patient lift preventative maintenance support at a VA facility. Guldmann does not report material sub-engagement or subcontractor teaming across its prime footprint. The company has been supplying ceiling lift systems and related services to the VA since at least 2004 and has established itself as an incumbent, name-brand-only OEM supplier across the VA network, with multiple maintenance contracts structured as five-year base-year-plus-option arrangements reflecting continuity and institutional positioning as the installed-base service provider.
