About Pafford Medical Services, Inc.
Pafford Medical Services, Inc., a woman-owned small disadvantaged business based in Hope, Arkansas, provides ground ambulance and patient transportation services, emergency medical air transport, paramedic staffing, and disaster medical assistance team (DMAT) support to federal healthcare and correctional agencies as a prime contractor (91% of recent awards). The company competes full-and-open on federal procurements; recent awards carry no set-aside designations except for a total small business set-aside on its DMAT contract and a small business set-aside on an Army Corps of Engineers paramedic services purchase order.
Pafford's customer concentration reflects specialization in federal healthcare and corrections. The Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Integrated Service Network 16 dominates by potential value, accounting for $34.9 million across seven awards (including two single-award IDIQs), while the Department of Health and Human Services Office of the Assistant Secretary for Preparedness and Response anchors the portfolio with a $36.2 million DMAT medical staffing and support IDIQ running through May 9, 2027. The Department of Justice Bureau of Prisons Federal Correctional Complex Forrest City generates the highest award count (14 awards, $347 thousand combined potential value) through recurring purchase orders for emergency air transport and inmate medical flights. The Army Corps of Engineers rounds out the core customer set with paramedic and on-site advanced life support services totaling $2.5 million. Top customers by award count and potential value diverge significantly — the VA and HHS collectively account for 88% of combined potential value while comprising only 30% of award count, whereas Forrest City's high-volume, low-dollar emergency flight orders drive frequency without dollar concentration.
Pafford holds two active single-award IDIQs with VA VISN 16, each valued at $15 million through 2029, for ground ambulance and patient transportation services across Arkansas, Missouri, and Oklahoma. Three delivery orders totaling $3.3 million have been placed against the IDIQ awarded August 2, 2024, and two orders totaling $1.6 million against the IDIQ awarded July 15, 2024. Recent representative work includes a $2.8 million delivery order from VA VISN 16 for ground ambulance and patient transportation services with ultimate completion September 30, 2026; a $2.5 million purchase order from the Army Corps of Engineers Vicksburg District for two paramedics to deliver advanced life support care aboard dredging vessels on the Mississippi and Atchafalaya Rivers through December 15, 2027; and a $1.1 million delivery order from VA VISN 16 for ground ambulance services with completion September 30, 2026. Activity has declined from eight awards in 2023 to four in 2025, with only one award recorded in 2026 year-to-date. Three awards (combined potential value $6.4 million) reach ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months and face recompete. As a grant sub-recipient, Pafford works under Arcare on a multi-year Training and Nurturing (TNG) grant from the Department of Health and Human Services Health Resources and Services Administration, delivering emergency services and community paramedicine to Woodruff County, Arkansas through federally qualified health center partnerships, with annual funding of $45 thousand to $65 thousand across performance years. NAICS and PSC concentration centers on ambulance services (10 awards), managed healthcare (10 awards under PSC Medical–Managed Healthcare), and general medical and surgical hospitals (8 awards).
