North American Rescue, LLC

North American Rescue, LLC, a for-profit manufacturer based in Greer, South Carolina, operates as a prime contractor supplying tactical and emergency medical equipment to the Department of Defense, primarily through the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Troop Support Medical. The company manufactures tourniquets, examination gloves, trauma response kits, litters, chest seals, hemostatic bandages, catheter kits, airway management devices, and specialized medical pouches for federal supply chains on a full-and-open, non-set-aside basis.

North American Rescue is a subsidiary of North American Rescue Holdings, LLC, a parent entity also active in federal contracting. Across both prime and sub roles, the vendor has received over 56,500 federal awards since 2009, with combined potential value of $642.1 million and $138.7 million obligated to date. The footprint is heavily concentrated in medical product supply; the top five NAICS categories (Medical, Dental, and Hospital Equipment Merchant Wholesalers; Medicinal and Botanical Manufacturing; Surgical and Medical Instrument Manufacturing; Surgical Appliance and Supplies Manufacturing; and Dental Equipment and Supplies Manufacturing) represent 42,392 of the 56,147 prime awards. Product Service Code concentration follows similarly: Hospital Furniture, Equipment, Utensils, and Supplies (18,972 awards); Medical and Surgical Instruments, Equipment, and Supplies (13,960 awards); Drugs and Biologicals (19,678 awards); and related categories dominate the portfolio.

Customer concentration is extreme and stable. The Defense Logistics Agency Troop Support Medical accounts for 55,890 awards (99% of award count) with $617.9 million combined potential value (96% of total dollars), dwarfing all other federal customers. The Department of Justice Federal Bureau of Investigation Headquarters Division (74 awards, $13 million), the United States Marine Corps (7 awards, $946 thousand), the Department of State Bureau of Diplomatic Security (33 awards, $833 thousand), and DLA Troop Support Construction and Equipment (110 awards, $829 thousand) round out a top-five customer set that accounts for 99% of potential value. This concentration reflects North American Rescue's positioning as a medical supply vendor to the DLA's global military health system.

North American Rescue places the overwhelming majority of work under five DLA indefinite delivery contracts. Indefinite Delivery Contract SPE2D019D0005 carries 19,891 task orders ($17.5 million combined potential value); IDC SPE2DH17D0001 carries 11,976 task orders ($23.8 million); IDC SPM2DH11D8214 carries 8,647 task orders ($24 million); IDC SPM2D011D0001 carries 6,169 task orders ($10.1 million); and IDC SPE2DH22D0003 carries 1,009 task orders ($2.3 million). These five vehicles represent the vast majority of the vendor's federal footprint. A single-award IDC with DLA Troop Support Medical for dental instrument kits, valued at $250,000, completed in June 2024 and is no longer active.

Activity has remained relatively flat year over year—roughly 4,100 to 4,800 awards annually since 2022, with 1,342 awards recorded to date in 2026 (a partial-year count). Recent representative prime work includes a $22,610 delivery order from the U.S. Coast Guard for CAT tourniquet holders and Black Talon glove kits (June 2026), a $15,698 order from DLA Medical Supply Chain for casualty bags (April 2026), a $13,844 order for tourniquets (April 2026), and an $11,982 order for emergency response kits (April 2026). Order values typically range from tens of dollars to several thousand dollars per delivery order, reflecting high-volume, small-lot medical supply replenishment. Only four awards face ultimate completion inside the next twenty-four months ($967 thousand combined potential value), indicating limited recompete exposure in the near term.

North American Rescue subcontracts primarily to Cardinal Health 200, LLC, supplying medical/surgical items including chest seals, combat tourniquets, and gauze bandages (January 2026 sub awards). The sub footprint represents less than 1% of total awards and is minimal by comparison to the prime business. The vendor competes across its entire footprint without set-aside designations, operating in full-and-open competition within the DLA medical supply ecosystem where it functions as a core replenishment vendor for military medical inventory.
