About the company
Kamtek Inc., a woman-owned small business based in Frederick, Maryland, operates as a prime contractor providing biorepository storage, cryopreservation, and specialized freezer maintenance services to federal agencies across the National Institutes of Health, Defense Health Agency, and FDA. The company competes full-and-open with no set-asides used across its recent contract footprint, despite holding SBA Women-Owned Small Business (WOSB) certification and designations including Subcontinent Asian (Asian-Indian) American ownership.
Kamtek's capability portfolio centers on temperature-controlled biorepository infrastructure and sample preservation. Representative work includes a $2.95 million definitive contract with Defense Health Agency awarded August 2025 for provision and maintenance of biorepository storage freezers at Silver Spring, Maryland, running through December 2028; a $235 thousand purchase order from the National Human Genome Research Institute (NHGRI) awarded June 2024 for biorepository and monitoring of Center for Research on Genomics and Global Health samples with freezer storage at Frederick, Maryland; a $244.7 thousand purchase order from Defense Health Agency for Joint Pathology Center biorepository storage with 24/7 freezer maintenance and monitoring; and recurring purchase orders from the National Center for Advancing Translational Sciences for 600 cubic feet of minus-20 degree Celsius walk-in freezer space with 24/7 monitoring, preventative maintenance, and calibration supporting frozen compound sample management. Recent awards also include liquid nitrogen tank storage and maintenance contracts with NHGRI for cryopreserved transgenic mouse lines.
Customer concentration reflects biomedical-research focus. The top five customers by award count account for 63% of recent awards, with NHGRI leading at 18 awards ($593 thousand combined potential value), followed by the NIH Office of the Director (12 awards), Defense Health Agency (11 awards, $4.4 million), FDA (7 awards, $4.2 million), and the NIH National Institute on Drug Abuse (7 awards). The rankings by potential value diverge sharply: NIH Office of Logistics and Acquisition Operations ranks first by dollars ($10.1 million across 5 awards), suggesting larger institutional purchasing arrangements, while Defense Health Agency remains second ($4.4 million). Kamtek operates under two standing blanket purchase agreements — HHSN263201000160B with 14 task orders ($238 thousand combined potential value) and 75N98020A00072 with 2 task orders ($62 thousand).
Activity has been modest and episodic — 87 total awards since 1999, with one award in 2022, four in 2023, two in 2024, four in 2025, and three in 2026 year-to-date. Combined potential value across all awards stands at $23.4 million, with $10.7 million (46% of potential) obligated to date. Only three awards face ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months (combined potential value $189 thousand), presenting minimal recompete exposure. Kamtek performs no subcontract work; 100% of awards are prime contracts. Primary NAICS categories are Refrigerated Warehousing and Storage (29 awards) and Testing Laboratories and Services (21 awards), reflecting the vendor's specialization in controlled-environment sample management and laboratory support infrastructure for biomedical research.
