About the company
Metrex Research LLC, doing business as Orascoptic, manufactures and delivers surgical and dental loupes, surgical headlight systems, and ergonomic seating solutions to federal defense and veterans' healthcare agencies as a prime contractor on full-and-open competitive delivery orders with no set-aside posture. A child entity of Kerr Corporation and subsidiary of Danaher Corporation, Metrex operates from Madison, Wisconsin, and competes entirely outside SBA set-aside categories across NAICS 334510 (Surgical and Medical Instrument Manufacturing) and PSC H6515 (Hospital Furniture, Equipment, Utensils, and Supplies).
Metrex's federal footprint is dominated by the Defense Logistics Agency Troop Support Medical Supply Chain, which accounts for approximately 87% of recent potential value across 3,505 awards totaling $94.1 million. The Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration Veterans Integrated Service Network 12 anchors the second-largest customer relationship at $17.1 million in combined potential value across 12 awards. The Department of the Navy Bureau of Medicine and Surgery, the Department of the Army Medical Command, and the Indian Health Service together represent the remaining 3% of active customer agencies. Metrex has worked with 46 distinct federal agencies in recent years, but DLA Troop Support Medical and the VA represent 98% of combined potential value—a concentration signal unusual among federal contractors and reflective of Metrex's specialized role as a dedicated supplier of visualization equipment to defense medical treatment facilities and VA healthcare centers.
Metrex holds two primary parent vehicles anchoring its federal business. The indefinite-delivery contract SPE2DH20D0040 with DLA carries 1,800 historical task orders worth $8.5 million in combined potential value; DLA's Medical Capital Equipment Program adds 1,388 task orders for $6 million. A $24.9 million IDIQ awarded by DLA on August 25, 2025, with a ceiling through August 24, 2030, represents Metrex's newest and largest vehicle position. The company also holds a Federal Supply Schedule contract (V797P4989A) with 296 task orders worth $3.8 million and a $5.6 million GSA Schedule Medical Equipment and Supplies (FSS-65-II-A) IDIQ with the Department of Veterans Affairs valid through September 30, 2027. Recent task orders under these vehicles range from $297 (batteries and accessories) to $33.7 thousand (headlight systems and loupes), with the majority falling in the $2,000 to $5,000 range for discrete loupe or headlight deliveries.
Representative prime work includes a $24.9 million DLA IDIQ awarded August 2025 for surgical and dental loupes (HDL ERGO, RDH ERGO, EYEZOOM series), surgical headlight systems (Endeavour, Spark models), and related accessories; a $24 thousand delivery order from the Indian Health Service on the GSA Schedule Medical Equipment and Supplies vehicle for Orascoptic loupes (August 2026); and a $42.7 thousand delivery order from the Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Integrated Service Network 21 for dental loupes under the same GSA Schedule (June 2026). All recent delivery orders are fixed-price with economic price adjustment and carry no set-aside designation.
Metrex subcontracts minimally; the source identifies only two sub-awards under Cardinal Health 200 LLC as prime, both for medical/surgical equipment kits (November 2025), representing less than 1% of Metrex's prime footprint. The vast majority of activity flows through Metrex as prime contractor against DLA and VA vehicle positions.
Activity has declined from 406 awards in 2024 to 184 in 2026, reflecting a year-to-date snapshot rather than full-year trajectory. Over 1,800 task orders sit on the legacy DLA IDIQ SPE2DH20D0040, established as Metrex's historical anchor. The newly awarded $24.9 million IDIQ (SPE2DH25D0024) consolidates future ordering capacity and signals DLA's continued reliance on Metrex as a primary supplier of specialized medical visualization equipment to military medical treatment facilities. Metrex competes full-and-open across all customer agencies and vehicle positions with no socioeconomic certifications, positioning the vendor as a mainstream commercial supplier rather than a small business or disadvantaged-business contractor.
