Sarstedt, Inc.

Sarstedt, Inc., a foreign-owned manufacturer of medical devices and laboratory consumables headquartered in Newton, North Carolina, supplies plastic blood collection tubes, laboratory glassware, diagnostic equipment, and scientific instruments to federal agencies exclusively as a prime contractor across full-and-open competitive procurements with no set-aside designations. The company operates on the Federal Supply Schedule and holds multiple single-award Blanket Purchase Agreements and Indefinite Delivery Contracts with civilian health and agriculture agencies, with recent awards spanning veterinary services, clinical laboratory procurement, and pandemic response materiel.

Sarstedt's customer base is highly concentrated in civilian health and agriculture missions. The top customer by award volume is the Department of Health and Human Services, National Institutes of Health Office of the Director (218 awards, $1.3 million combined potential value), followed by HHS NIH Office of Logistics and Acquisition Operations (59 awards, $10.5 million), which also ranks first by potential value. The Department of Agriculture, Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service Veterinary Services holds the third position (18 awards, $1.9 million combined potential value). These three customers account for a minority of the full portfolio—coverage of only 19% of awards—indicating substantial geographic or functional dispersion, though the dollars concentrate more tightly: the same three agencies anchor approximately 7% of combined potential value. Sarstedt's representative prime work includes a five-year, $528,600 Indefinite Delivery Contract with USDA Veterinary Services for coated plastic blood collection tubes supporting the National Veterinary Stockpile (initial delivery order $49,971.90, June 2024); a five-year, $102,000 IDC with USDA Veterinary Services for uncoated plastic blood collection tubes (initial order $20,400, February 2024); a $10 million single-award Blanket Purchase Agreement with HHS Office of Logistics and Acquisition Operations for laboratory glassware, supplies, and medical equipment (effective December 2024 through November 2026); and a $163,660 purchase order with CDC for laboratory supplies (September 2022).

Sarstedt's federal work operates almost entirely through two vehicle types: the Federal Supply Schedule GS24F1375C (700 task orders, $1.4 million combined potential value) and multiple single-award BPAs and IDCs, with notable vehicles including HHSN263199900050476B (150 task orders, $740 thousand) and HHSN263201600006B (69 task orders, $594 thousand). Activity has been episodic in recent years—five awards in 2021, seven in 2022, six in 2024, and minimal awards in 2025–2026—with only one award recorded in 2026 as of the source date. Combined potential value across all 1,649 awards in the portfolio stands at $222.3 million; however, only $6.2 million has been obligated (3% of potential value), indicating that the footprint reflects available contract capacity rather than invoiced revenue. The portfolio skews heavily toward laboratory and medical equipment categories: 1,226 awards fall under PSC Laboratory Equipment and Supplies, with 207 awards under Medical and Surgical Instruments, Equipment, and Supplies. Sarstedt's primary NAICS framing is All Other Plastics Product Manufacturing (185 awards), followed by Surgical and Medical Instrument Manufacturing (21 awards). The vendor does not subcontract to other federal primes and operates no subcontractor role in the sample.
