Kyowa Medical Corporation

Kyowa Medical Corporation, a for-profit medical equipment and supply services provider headquartered in Yokohama, Japan, supplies glucometer consumables and preventive maintenance services to U.S. military medical facilities in Japan as a prime contractor on full-and-open federal contracts with no set-aside designations. The vendor holds a single-award Indefinite Delivery Contract valued at $251,273.12 with the Defense Logistics Agency Troop Support Pacific running through November 12, 2028, and competes exclusively as a prime; it holds no subcontract positions.

Kyowa Medical's federal customer base is tightly concentrated. Two agencies account for 100% of recent awards: the Defense Logistics Agency Troop Support Pacific (21 awards, $304 thousand combined potential value) and the Defense Health Agency (3 awards, $193 thousand combined potential value). The DLA Troop Support Pacific relationship anchors the vendor's footprint. Kyowa Medical holds a single-award IDC for quarterly delivery of glucometer test strips, control solutions, and lancets to U.S. Navy Medicine Readiness & Training Command Laboratory in Yokosuka and Naval Medical Readiness and Training Unit in Iwakuni. Against this parent vehicle, the vendor has executed 20 delivery orders, each typically $1,050 to $6,605, with consistent quarterly scheduling aligned to required three-month minimum shelf-life windows. Representative DLA delivery orders include a $1,975.39 order for glucometer consumables at Yokosuka (April 14, 2026), a $3,134.93 order for Yokosuka glucometer supplies (November 13, 2024), and a $6,605.57 order for Yokosuka consumables (January 19, 2024).

The Defense Health Agency relationship centers on medical equipment maintenance services. The vendor holds a $134,878.86 purchase order for preventive maintenance and on-call repair of two STERRAD ST100NX sterilizer units (February 20, 2023, completing February 19, 2028), a $33,060.64 contract for service maintenance of VISULAS TRION Carl Zeiss equipment at U.S. Naval Hospital Yokosuka (September 15, 2025, completing September 14, 2029), and a $25,102.47 purchase order for preventive maintenance on STERRADNX equipment (August 26, 2024, completing August 31, 2027). These contracts position Kyowa Medical as an OEM-certified service provider for specialized medical equipment supporting U.S. Forces Japan operations.

Recent activity has grown from four awards in 2023 to a peak of nine in 2024, with seven in 2025 and four in 2026 (through mid-July). Two awards totaling $160 thousand in combined potential value reach ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, exposing the vendor to recompete risk on a portion of its DLA consumables orders. The IDC itself extends through November 12, 2028. Kyowa Medical's work is classified predominantly under NAICS Surgical Appliance and Supplies Manufacturing (21 awards) and Electronic and Precision Equipment Repair and Maintenance (2 awards). All work is performed in Japan with firm fixed-price structures and no geographic or small-business set-aside involvement, reflecting pure price-based competition for specialty medical supply and maintenance services to U.S. military healthcare infrastructure in the Pacific region.
