Phigenics LLC

Phigenics LLC, a Warrenville, Illinois-based for-profit limited liability company, sells water quality testing, monitoring, and management services to the federal government as a prime contractor across 442 recent awards spanning healthcare facilities, military installations, and federal offices. The vendor competes predominantly in full-and-open procurements with no recurring set-aside profile; one recent Total Small Business set-aside award appears among the portfolio, but the footprint is overwhelmingly unrestricted competition.

Phigenics' concrete capability portfolio centers on Legionella risk assessment, bacterial and potable water analysis, sterile pharmaceutical system water testing, dental waterline testing, and continuous monitoring systems—services delivered to federal healthcare and military medical facilities. Representative work includes a $674,196 single-award indefinite-delivery contract with VA Veterans Integrated Service Network 16 (VISN 16) for base water quality monitoring and testing through September 2030, a $900,000 single-award IDC with VISN 5 for critical water testing at the Washington DC VA Medical Center through September 2029, a $1.83 million delivery order from VISN 7 under the GSA Multiple Award Schedule for water quality testing at Dublin, Georgia through August 2028, and a $625,436 purchase order from VISN 20 for Legionella and sterile pharmaceutical system water testing at a Roseburg, Oregon facility through November 2030. The vendor also holds a $343,084 definitive contract with the Department of Energy for comprehensive water management program development at the James Forrestal Building in Washington, DC through September 2028, and a $600,341 delivery order from the Indian Health Service for water management plan development at Peach Springs, Arizona through June 2030.

Customer concentration is extreme and singular. The Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration dominates the portfolio across all measures. The top five VISN networks account for 48% of awards by count: VISN 1 (61 awards, $7.5 million), VISN 5 (43 awards, $7.7 million), VISN 12 (39 awards, $10.3 million), VISN 9 (36 awards, $4.6 million), and VISN 7 (35 awards, $19.4 million combined potential value). The same five networks represent 48% of combined potential value at $53.6 million. Additional VA networks (VISN 16, 17, 2, 10, 19, 21, 6, 4) collectively represent a second tier of active customers. Non-VA federal customers include the Defense Health Agency, Indian Health Service, U.S. Coast Guard, Department of Energy, and the U.S. Army Medical Command, but these represent a small minority of overall activity. Of 26 distinct customer agencies served, the VA represents roughly 90% of the footprint by dollar value.

Phigenics places work through the GSA Multiple Award Schedule as its primary vehicle—308 task orders valued at $68.8 million combined potential value—plus direct indefinite-delivery contracts with individual VA VISNs. Three active IDCs carry combined ceiling values of approximately $1.65 million (VISN 16: $674,196; VISN 5: $900,000; VISN 4: $79,500 established November 2024). The Facilities Maintenance and Management PSC category absorbs 108 task orders valued at $5.3 million. The vendor holds no seats on government-wide acquisition contracts or multi-agency IDIQs; its vehicle footprint is tied to the GSA MAS and direct VA contracting.

Activity has remained relatively flat over five years, averaging 18 awards per year, with recent years holding steady at 21 awards in 2025 and 5 awards year-to-date in 2026 (as of June 18). Twenty-eight awards with ultimate completion dates in the next twenty-four months carry combined potential value of $8.2 million—a moderate recompete exposure but concentrated in a handful of large VISN contracts.

SCI-reported invoicing totaled $3.3 million across 9.1 FTEs in FY2024, up from $2.1 million across 5.7 FTEs in FY2023. The vendor demonstrates zero subcontractor engagement across SCI-reportable prime contracts; all labor is self-performed. Government-paid hourly rates cluster tightly around the median of $175.01 per hour, with the 10th percentile at $174.79/hr and the 90th percentile at $175.18/hr, indicating consistent, standardized pricing across the federal service contract base. The vendor operates as a self-performing prime on all meaningful work; the single sub-award in the portfolio (a facilities engineering and maintenance sub to M.C. Clean Vendor for water treatment services in Washington, DC) represents an anomaly and does not reflect the company's primary operating model. Phigenics is a pure prime contractor, building its own delivery teams for water testing and monitoring work rather than leaning on subcontractors.

The vendor's federal contracting registration dates to November 2009, establishing a seventeen-year track record within the VA healthcare network. NAICS coding is split across 541512 (Computer Systems Design Services—anomalous), 541380 (Testing Laboratories and Services—70 awards), and 541380-adjacent codes, with PSC dominance in Z1NE (Environmental Systems Protection—Water Quality Support) and Z1ND (Quality Control—Water Purification) categories. The company has built a defensible niche as a specialized water safety contractor embedded in VA facility operations, with limited diversification beyond healthcare water management and no material exposure to defense, civilian agency IT, or other federal functional areas.
