Otto Bock Patient Care LLC

Otto Bock Patient Care LLC, a foreign-owned medical device manufacturer headquartered in Austin, Texas, supplies custom prosthetic limbs, orthotic braces, and related fabrication services to the Department of Veterans Affairs as a prime contractor across multiple Veterans Integrated Service Networks. The vendor competes full-and-open with no set-aside designations, positioning itself as a specialized supplier whose prosthetic manufacturing and customization capabilities command unrestricted procurement authority.

Otto Bock's federal footprint centers almost entirely on the Veterans Health Administration. The top five customer VISNs account for 83% of recent award count: VISN 22 leads with 132 awards valued at $3.6 million combined potential, followed by VISN 19 (57 awards, $1.4 million), VISN 7 (50 awards, $1.1 million), VISN 4 (32 awards, $2.3 million), and VISN 17 (29 awards, $1.1 million). Dollar concentration diverges sharply from volume: VISN 5 anchors 94% of the combined potential value across all customers with just five awards totaling $43.9 million, driven by a $29.4 million indefinite delivery contract for artificial limbs and related services (awarded April 2023, completion April 2028) and a $14.4 million basic ordering agreement for orthotic devices (awarded September 2025, completion September 2030). VISN 10 ($7.1 million across eight awards) and VISN 15 ($7 million across 24 awards) comprise the remainder of material value. Recent representative work includes a $97.6 million firm fixed-price purchase order from VISN 17 for prosthetic devices (awarded October 2025, completion April 2026), a $78.1 million order from VISN 22 for artificial limbs (awarded February 2025, completion May 2025), and a $157.1 million order from VISN 22 for prosthetic limbs (awarded July 2025, completion September 2025). Individual task orders under the smaller BPAs typically range from $10 thousand to $50 thousand.

Otto Bock operates under three significant IDVs with the VA: the VISN 5 contract ($29.4 million, multiple-award, partial small business set-aside), the VISN 5 BOA ($14.4 million, multiple-award), and the VISN 10 BPA ($7 million, single-award). These vehicles carry firm fixed-price pricing and service VA medical centers across Maryland, Washington D.C., West Virginia, Ohio, Indiana, Kentucky, and surrounding areas. Task orders funnel through BPAs 36C24421A0033 (23 orders, $619 thousand), 36C25522A0040 (18 orders, $558 thousand), and other regional blanket purchase agreements.

Activity has grown rapidly: one award in 2022, 43 in 2023, 124 in 2024, 163 in 2025, and 30 year-to-date in 2026 (through July). The vendor holds 362 prime awards across 14 customer agencies with $68.2 million combined potential value; only $9.5 million is obligated to date (14% realization rate), typical for indefinite delivery vehicle structures. Obligations will accelerate as delivery orders execute against the multi-year IDVs. Three awards face completion in the next twenty-four months with combined potential value of $56 thousand—minimal recompete exposure given the dominant VISN 5 contract's April 2028 expiration date.

Otto Bock's service portfolio spans below-knee and above-knee prostheses, replacement limb sockets, microprocessor-controlled knee components (Genium X4), electric wrist and hand devices, the C-Brace knee-ankle-foot orthosis, and custom fabrication and fitting services. All work falls under NAICS 339113 (Surgical Appliance and Supplies Manufacturing) and PSC code 6515 (Medical and Surgical Instruments, Equipment, and Supplies). The vendor holds a named subsidiary, Wright & Filippis, LLC (foreign-owned, for-profit). Foreign ownership and absence of small business certifications position Otto Bock to compete only in full-and-open procurements, though the VISN 5 IDIQ carries a partial small business set-aside clause that does not restrict Otto Bock's participation.
