Ozark Surgical Associates LLC

Ozark Surgical Associates LLC, a self-certified small disadvantaged business based in Fayetteville, Arkansas, provides board-certified general surgical services to the Department of Veterans Affairs as a prime contractor under total small business set-aside delivery orders and an indefinite delivery contract. The firm operates as a limited liability company and competes exclusively under the Total Small Business set-aside designation across its federal footprint.

Ozark Surgical's entire customer base and award history centers on a single federal agency: the Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration Veterans Integrated Service Network 16 (VISN 16) accounts for 100% of recent awards and 71% of combined potential value across all federal sources. The firm holds a single-award indefinite delivery contract valued at $2.17 million with an ultimate completion date of March 31, 2029, awarded April 1, 2024, and classified under NAICS 621111 (Offices of Physicians) with PSC code R499 (Medical-Surgery). Under this IDIQ, Ozark Surgical provides one board-certified general surgeon delivering onsite surgical services to eligible VA beneficiaries at the Veterans Healthcare System of the Ozarks in Fayetteville, Arkansas. The surgeon maintains local hospital credentials within 25 miles of the facility and furnishes on-call emergency coverage during evenings, weekends, and holidays. Three delivery orders have been issued against this IDIQ: a $189.9 thousand order for April 2024 through March 2025, a $200 thousand order for April 2025 through March 2026, and a $250 thousand order for April 2026 through March 2027. The firm also holds four additional IDIQs with VISN 16 carrying combined potential value of $6.1 million across 27 prior task orders, indicating sustained relationship depth predating the current contract cycle.

Activity has been sparse in recent years—one award in 2022, one in 2023, three in 2024, one in 2025, and one in 2026—reflecting the nature of physician-staffing contracts, which are typically long-running single-customer arrangements with periodic renewal or recompete. The firm faces one recompete event in the next twenty-four months: the $250 thousand delivery order with ultimate completion on March 31, 2027. The vendor holds no subcontracts and operates as a 100% prime contractor across its federal footprint, with all work performed at the Fayetteville VA facility.
