Quality Manufacturing Systems, Inc.

Quality Manufacturing Systems, Inc., a for-profit company based in La Vergne, Tennessee, designs and manufactures pharmaceutical packaging automation equipment and semi-automated packing systems for the Department of Veterans Affairs as a prime contractor, competing full-and-open with no set-aside designation across its entire footprint.

Quality's capability portfolio centers on semi-automated packing stations, conveyor systems, checkweighers, camera stations, robotic controls, and related integration services for VA consolidated mail-outpatient pharmacy (CMOP) operations nationwide. Representative work includes a $12.3 million definitive contract with Veterans Integrated Service Network 15 for semi-automated packers and installation at the Tucson CMOP (awarded April 2022, ultimate completion December 2025); a $22.2 million definitive contract with VISN 15 for A-frame conveyor units of use equipment (awarded September 2021, completion September 2025); a $10.1 million purchase order with Veterans Integrated Service Network 22 for manufacturing machinery production floor upgrade at the Tucson CMOP facility, including automated vial labelers, plastic chain conveyors, accumulation tables, and inline weighing stations (awarded September 2025, completion October 2026); and a $3.09 million purchase order with VISN 17 to procure, install, and operationally test two automated packing stations for the Lancaster CMOP (awarded September 2024, completion January 2026). Quality also holds a $3.76 million single-award Indefinite Delivery Contract with VISN 15 for semi-automated packing equipment and modifications, from which multiple delivery orders have been executed.

Customer concentration is extreme and represents recompete risk. The top customer, Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration Veterans Integrated Service Network 15, accounts for 81 awards (60% of award count) and $45.7 million in combined potential value. The top five VISN networks collectively account for 90% of combined potential value. Quality has performed across ten distinct customer agencies, but all documented federal work in the source is routed through VA VISN networks. Over the past five years (2022–2026), Quality has averaged 2.6 awards per year with slight growth trajectory; however, only two awards (combined potential value $10.2 million) face ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, signaling limited near-term recompete exposure relative to the size of the installed base.

Quality's work is primarily accessed through the Federal Supply Schedule GS35F0908N (146 task orders, $4.6 million combined potential value) and a Blanket Purchase Agreement under that same schedule (25 task orders, $474 thousand combined potential value), both vehicles enabling direct ordering by VA facilities without further competition. The single-award IDC with VISN 15 anchors the largest single contract vehicle and drives the bulk of the seven-figure work. Quality competes with no subcontractors in its current footprint — all documented awards list Quality as prime contractor with no documented sub-awards. Category concentration reflects the pharmaceutical equipment manufacturing and IT programming support driven by VA pharmacy modernization demand: the top NAICS category is Other Computer Related Services (148 awards, primarily software controls and integrations), followed by fabricated metal product manufacturing and conveyor equipment manufacturing.
