About Matthews International Corporation

Matthews International Corporation, doing business as Matthews Bronze Division, manufactures bronze memorial plaques, medallions, flat bronze niche markers, caskets, urns, and shipping containers as a large-business prime contractor for federal agencies, competing full-and-open with no set-aside designations across its entire federal footprint.

Matthews operates a specialized manufacturing business centered on memorialization and mortuary products, with all production occurring at its Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania facility. The company holds a dominant position supplying the Department of Veterans Affairs National Cemetery Administration, which accounts for 50 awards (81% of the vendor's award count) valued at $727 million in combined potential value across a multi-billion-dollar federal footprint. A secondary but stable customer is the Department of the Air Force Air Mobility Command, with 9 awards valued at $5.3 million for caskets, urns, and miscellaneous mortuary equipment. The remaining customer base—the Department of the Army Materiel Command and Army European Command—represents minimal volume and dollar concentration.

Matthews holds three major indefinite delivery vehicles anchoring its federal footprint. The largest is Indefinite Delivery Contract V786P476 ($48.7 million combined potential value, 25 task orders), a single-award vehicle for bronze memorial plaques awarded October 1, 2021, and extending through September 30, 2026. The second is Indefinite Delivery Contract VA786P0328 ($38.9 million, 11 task orders), a single-award contract for bronze medallions supporting Executive Order 14398 veterans memorialization efforts, awarded April 1, 2023, running through September 30, 2024, though some delivery orders extend through 2028. The third is Indefinite Delivery Contract 36C78622D0001 ($77.9 million, 7 task orders), also serving NCA requirements. Matthews also holds a single-award Blanket Purchase Agreement with Air Mobility Command (awarded April 8, 2024, $4.999 million ceiling through April 7, 2029) for caskets, urns, and shipping containers supporting Air Force Mortuary Affairs Operations, with three calls issued to date totaling roughly $219 thousand.

Recent representative work includes a $14.5 million fixed-price delivery order from NCA (awarded October 1, 2025) for nationwide offsite manufacture, inscription, and delivery of bronze markers (B1 and B6 types); a $4.5 million delivery order (April 1, 2026) for bronze memorial plaques adding CLINs to an existing blanket purchase agreement; and a $521 thousand delivery order (April 1, 2024) for bronze medallions under the executive-order veterans program, with funding adjustments commensurate with base-year usage extending completion through March 28, 2028.

Activity shows modest recent volume—two awards in 2026, three in 2025, seven in 2024—following higher velocity in 2022–2023 when five to six awards per year were typical. The vendor faces a recompete cliff of six awards (combined potential value $32.1 million) completing within the next twenty-four months, including several bronze plaque and medallion delivery orders. Matthews International Corporation operates as part of a corporate structure that includes a Cremation Division parent entity and the subsidiary Liquid X Printed Metals Inc.; the Cremation Division has been referenced in some award descriptions as a supporting division but does not carry distinct federal prime awards. The company competes exclusively as a large business with no SBA set-aside participation across all 141 awards in its recent federal footprint.
