Lifestar Response Of Maryland Inc.

Lifestar Response Of Maryland Inc., operating as Lifestar Response, is a for-profit medical transport and ambulance services vendor based in Annapolis Junction, Maryland, that operates exclusively as a federal prime contractor on purchase orders for patient transport and emergency medical services across multiple federal health and defense agencies. The vendor competes in full-and-open procurements without set-aside designations.

Lifestar Response's concrete service portfolio centers on ambulance patient transport, emergency medical standby services, and specialized medical transport for federal facilities. Representative recent work includes a $17.085 thousand firm fixed-price purchase order from the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (August 2026) for ambulance patient transport in Bethesda, Maryland; an $11.920 thousand NIH Clinical Center purchase order (February 2025) for patient ambulance service; and a $4.180 thousand Chief of Naval Operations purchase order (September 2022) for Lifestar Services Holiday Concerts support. Earlier awards include a $2.800 thousand standby ambulance services order from the Chief of Naval Operations (December 2021).

Customer concentration is heavy with health and defense agencies. The Department of Veterans Affairs dominates by award count (eight awards across two organizational units — Veterans Health Administration Veterans Integrated Service Network 2 holds three awards valued at $6.7 million combined) and co-anchors dollars alongside the Defense Health Agency (four awards, $3.7 million combined potential value). The Department of the Navy Bureau of Medicine and Surgery placed three awards ($742 thousand combined), and the Department of the Navy Chief Naval Operations placed three additional small orders. By combined potential value, VA VISN 2 ($6.7 million), the Defense Health Agency ($3.7 million), and Naval Bureau of Medicine and Surgery ($742 thousand) account for 86% of dollars.

The vendor's award activity spans since 1994 with 27 total prime awards, though the past five years show sparse volume (one award per year in 2021, 2022, 2025, and 2026; two awards in 2019). Combined potential value across all 27 awards stands at $13.1 million with $9.8 million (75%) obligated to date. The vendor operates exclusively as a prime contractor with no subcontract footprint in the source data.
