Invacare Corp

Invacare Corp (Invacare Corporation—Elyria, Ohio Division), operating as Invacare America, manufactures and distributes durable medical equipment—hospital beds, patient lifts, wheelchairs, mattresses, prosthetic devices, and related accessories—to the Department of Veterans Affairs as a prime contractor competing in full-and-open federal procurement with no set-aside designations. The company is a for-profit manufacturer headquartered in Elyria, Ohio, with a corporate structure encompassing eight named subsidiaries including Medbloc Inc., Freedom Designs Inc., Altimate Medical Inc., and Pinnacle Medsource Inc.

Invacare's federal footprint is dominated by the Department of Veterans Affairs, which accounts for the vast majority of its award activity. The top five funding agencies by award count—all VA entities—cover only 10% of the portfolio, reflecting the company's highly concentrated relationship with the Veterans Health Administration. By potential value, the concentration is even sharper: VA Headquarters alone anchors $541.8 million (more than 50% of the combined $1.07 billion portfolio), followed at significant distance by VA's Veterans Integrated Service Networks (VISNs) 19, 12, 7, and 17, which together account for $162.4 million. The two rankings diverge meaningfully—VISNs dominate by order count (with VISN 7 alone placing 1,187 orders worth $21.7 million), while the Headquarters seat on a single-award $18.8 million Indefinite Delivery Contract for hospital beds and accessories drives the dollars. A second major IDC valued at $32 million (running through October 2026) focuses on patient lifts and slings for in-home use; combined, these two vehicles anchor the company's VA relationship.

Invacare's work divides cleanly across five primary parent vehicles. The Indefinite Delivery Contract V797P9127 carries 6,619 task orders totaling $20.6 million in potential value and represents the largest volume channel; Contracts V797P9095 (5,348 task orders, $10.7 million) and V797P9117 (3,325 task orders, $25 million) follow. The Federal Supply Schedule V797P3837K spans 2,423 task orders worth $24 million, and a Blanket Purchase Agreement carries 1,354 orders totaling $3.7 million. Task orders are small (typical delivery orders range from $2,500 to $250,000), reflecting stock replenishment and equipment resupply across dozens of VA medical centers and service networks nationwide.

Invacare competes exclusively on full-and-open contracts with no set-asides—all awards in the source carry "No Set-Aside Used" designation. The company is a 100% prime contractor footprint; no sub-awards appear in the portfolio. The award portfolio spans 44,049 total awards with a combined potential value of $1.07 billion and $270.1 million in obligated dollars (25% obligation rate). Recent activity shows fluctuation: 103 awards in 2022, declining to 63 in 2024, then recovering to 82 in 2025 and 20 year-to-date in 2026 (reflecting the four-week lag in the source). Within the next twenty-four months, nine awards totaling $1.2 million in combined potential value face recompete exposure.

The primary NAICS and PSC concentration reflects the company's core business: Surgical Appliance and Supplies Manufacturing dominates at 21,857 awards, followed by Medical, Dental, and Hospital Equipment and Supplies Merchant Wholesalers (6,609 awards) and Surgical and Medical Instrument Manufacturing (4,371). PSC codes track similarly—Medical and Surgical Instruments, Equipment, and Supplies account for 19,400 awards, and Hospital Furniture, Equipment, Utensils, and Supplies for 18,951. Recent representative work includes a $86,520 delivery order from VISN 8 on June 16, 2026, for in-home hospital beds for the San Juan, Puerto Rico catchment area; a $138,533 lift equipment order from VISN 6 on June 12, 2026; a $230,167.80 prosthetic equipment purchase order from VISN 17 on April 14, 2026; and a $221,141.20 hospital beds, mattresses, and rails delivery order from VISN 6 on December 3, 2024. All orders are firm fixed-price with performance at Invacare's Elyria manufacturing and distribution facility or at customer sites nationwide.
