Scanco USA Inc.

Scanco USA Inc., a minority-owned, Subcontinent Asian American-owned small disadvantaged business based in Wayne, Pennsylvania, manufactures and services advanced micro-computed tomography (microCT) scanning equipment and related medical imaging systems as a prime contractor to federal healthcare, research, and regulatory agencies. The company operates exclusively as a prime (100% of recent awards) and competes full-and-open without set-aside designations on the vast majority of work, though two purchase orders carry Total Small Business set-aside tags. Scanco operates as a for-profit Subchapter S corporation focused on NAICS 333112 (Analytical Laboratory Instrument Manufacturing), 333113 (Irradiation Apparatus Manufacturing), and related equipment repair and maintenance codes.

Scanco's customer base concentrates heavily within the federal healthcare and research infrastructure. The Department of Veterans Affairs dominates by award count, accounting for 44% of recent awards across multiple Veterans Integrated Service Networks (VISN 22 with 12 awards at $695 thousand combined potential value; VISN 21 with 7 awards at $1.2 million; VISN 4 with 5 awards at $1.2 million; and VISN 10, 16, 5, and 7 with smaller portfolios). The Department of the Army Medical Command anchors the dollar ranking with 7 awards totaling $3 million in combined potential value, driven by large equipment procurements. The Department of Health and Human Services (Food and Drug Administration and the National Institute of Dental and Craniofacial Research) and the Department of Agriculture have placed smaller orders for scanners, components, and maintenance services. Together, the top five customer entities account for 60% of combined potential value across all awards.

Scanco's capability portfolio centers on microCT and computed-tomography scanner procurement, with models including the MicroCT 45 ex vivo scanner ($280 thousand, VISN 7, March 2023), Vivact 80 in vivo microCT scanner ($345 thousand, VISN 16, July 2021), and Vivact 40 scanner ($132.2 thousand for five-year maintenance, VISN 22, March 2022). The company also supplies x-ray tubes, tension-compression loading systems, and microCT software and computers. Maintenance and repair work spans x-ray source replacements, recalibration, and multi-year service contracts. Recent work includes a $121.3 thousand CT scanner services order from VISN 21 (award July 2026), a $248 thousand micro CT scanner delivery to VISN 22 (award November 2024), and a $128 thousand maintenance contract for Scanco Xtreme CT equipment with VISN 17 running through February 2028.

Award activity remains sparse and sporadic. The vendor placed four awards in 2021, declining to two in 2022, rebounding to five in 2023, dropping to two in 2024, and placing two orders in 2026 to date. Combined potential value across all 85 awards totals $11.6 million, with 99% obligated. Within the next twenty-four months, three awards carrying combined potential value of $404 thousand reach ultimate completion. Scanco has no subcontracting footprint and sits on no named IDIQs or GWACs in the source data. The vendor's contract vehicle presence is minimal — one indefinite delivery contract (V261P1667) carries a single task order. The company pursues work exclusively through firm fixed-price purchase orders, typically awarded on sole-source or competitively open basis to fill specialized scientific equipment needs across the VA and Army medical infrastructure.
