Pure Processing, LLC

Pure Processing, LLC, a self-certified small disadvantaged business headquartered in Carol Stream (with operational locations in Lisle, White River Junction, and San Francisco), manufactures and supplies specialized medical equipment—surgical instrument cleaning sinks, endoscope decontamination sinks, reprocessing workstations, fluid management systems, and related ergonomic solutions—exclusively as a prime contractor to the Department of Veterans Affairs and the Department of Defense.

Pure Processing operates predominantly under full-and-open procurement, with recurring participation in Total Small Business set-asides that account for roughly one-third of its recent awards. The vendor competes under NAICS 339113 (Surgical Appliance & Supplies Manufacturing) and carries primary PSC codes 6515 (Medical And Surgical Instruments, Equipment, And Supplies) and 7210 (Hospital Furniture, Equipment, Utensils, And Supplies). Sixty-seven awards span the past fourteen years, with annual volume declining from ten awards in 2022–2023 to one in 2026, and combined potential value of $4.2 million (86% obligated). One award—a $67,939.87 custom sterile processing 3-bay sink to Veterans Integrated Service Network 20 (award date June 15, 2026)—represents the most recent transaction.

Customer concentration is acute and narrow. The top five Veterans Integrated Service Networks (VISN 12, VISN 22, VISN 6, VISN 21, and VISN 10) account for 51% of awards and 63% of combined potential value; VISN 12 alone anchors $1 million across ten awards. Beyond the VA, the Department of the Navy Military Sealift Command represents the second-largest customer category ($266 thousand across two awards for medical sink upgrades to hospital ships USNS Mercy and USNS Comfort). The Defense Health Agency accounts for $168 thousand in a single reprocessing-sink contract. Across the 67-award portfolio, the VA dominates: 22 distinct federal agencies are named in the source, but VA facilities and VISNs represent the overwhelming majority of transacting partners.

Pure Processing holds a General Services Administration Federal Supply Schedule (FSS-65-II-A) contract for Medical Equipment and Supplies, awarded by VISN 12 on January 1, 2022 with a ceiling of $535,740 extending through December 31, 2026. Eight delivery orders totaling $512 thousand have been placed against this IDIQ by seven VISNs (6, 8, 10, 12, 19, 21, and 22), with individual delivery-order values ranging from $8,061 to $208,618 and completion dates through July 2026. The FSS contract authorizes flexible procurement of the vendor's core product lines: FlexiPump independent flushing systems, PureStation sink configurations, PureSteel reprocessing and inspection tables, and associated accessories.

Outside the FSS vehicle, Pure Processing fills purchase orders and delivery orders issued directly by individual VISNs. Representative prime awards include a $229,714 Total Small Business purchase order from VISN 6 for ergonomic workstations (awarded August 9, 2023), a $174,495 full-and-open delivery order from VISN 21 for PureSteel reprocessing sinks (awarded May 17, 2024), and a $154,567 noncompetitive purchase order from VISN 6 for surgical instrument cleaning sinks awarded under urgent-and-compelling-justification authority (awarded January 5, 2024) to support activation of a robotic surgical system at the Carol Stream VA Medical Center. The vendor has no subcontractor footprint; all 67 awards are prime transactions.

Activity trajectory shows contraction. The vendor moved from 10 awards annually in 2022–2023, to 7 in 2024, to 4 in 2025, and 1 in 2026. Only one award reaches completion in the next twenty-four months (combined potential value $68 thousand), creating minimal recompete cliff exposure but signaling either lost pursuit momentum or consolidation at existing customers. Pure Processing does not appear on federal GWACs or broad-based contract vehicles beyond its single GSA FSS holding; its reach is confined to direct VA VISN procurements and occasional defense medical operations.
