Shimadzu Precision Instruments, Inc.

Shimadzu Precision Instruments, Inc., operating as Shimadzu Medical Systems USA, supplies advanced medical imaging equipment—X-ray, fluoroscopy, CT, MRI, ultrasound systems, and related maintenance services—to federal healthcare agencies as a prime contractor, competing predominantly in full-and-open procurements without reliance on set-aside categories. A U.S. subsidiary of the Japanese global Shimadzu Corporation, the company is headquartered in Long Beach, California, operates as a for-profit corporate entity, and competes across 17 distinct federal customer agencies with a footprint concentrated in medical device manufacturing (NAICS 339112 — Irradiation Apparatus Manufacturing) and healthcare equipment supply and maintenance.

The Department of Veterans Affairs National Acquisition Center anchors Shimadzu's federal portfolio. The top five customer agencies by combined potential value account for approximately 98% of Shimadzu's $558.6 million in recent award value. The Defense Logistics Agency Troop Support Medical dominates by dollar magnitude—60 awards carrying $420 million in combined potential value—while the VA's National Acquisition Center (52 awards, $24 million) and Veterans Integrated Service Network 12 (53 awards, $100.6 million) represent the agency's largest direct medical-center customers. The Indian Health Service, the Department of the Army Medical Command, and smaller VISN components round out active billing. Concentration by award count and dollar value align closely, with DLA-managed medical supply-chain awards driving the largest ceiling values and VA equipment consolidation orders (fiscal-year standardized buys) generating moderate volumes of smaller individual delivery orders.

Work is performed at Shimadzu's Long Beach facility, with equipment delivery to VA Medical Centers across Portland, Oregon; Seattle, Washington; Louisville, Kentucky; Long Beach, California; Asheville, North Carolina; Bay Pines and St. Petersburg, Florida; Wappingers Falls, New York; and Indian Health Service sites in Albuquerque, New Mexico and McClellan Park, California. Recent representative awards include a $1.58 million firm fixed-price delivery order from the VA National Acquisition Center for X-ray fluoroscopy equipment at Louisville (awarded July 2024, ultimate completion June 2027), a $623 thousand order from the VA for Seattle medical-center radiology consolidation (awarded December 2025, completion December 2026), and a $1.28 million FLUOROSPEED X1 fluoroscopy system for Louisville with excusable delay for site preparation (awarded September 2024, extended to June 2027). Shimadzu also holds service-contract delivery orders for preventative maintenance on G4 fluoroscopic systems and digital radiography equipment, including a $353.5 thousand contract running through May 2027 under Veterans Integrated Service Network 20.

Shimadzu participates in three primary vehicle structures. The DLA-VA NAC Radiology and Imaging Systems Program IDIQ hosts 53 task orders carrying $22.6 million in combined potential value and represents Shimadzu's core federal vehicle for VA medical-center imaging procurement. The Indefinite Delivery Contract V797P6038B (Defense Logistics Agency) carries 85 task orders with $25.6 million combined potential value and serves as the company's largest vehicle by task-order count. The DLA Medical Capital Equipment Program hosts 49 delivery orders with $13.3 million combined potential value. No set-aside categories recur across Shimadzu's prime footprint; all awards are full-and-open competitive or sole-source procurements with no 8(a), HUBZone, SDVOSB, or WOSB designations applied.

Activity has declined modestly in recent years—ten awards in 2023 declining to four in 2025 and one recorded award to date in 2026—reflecting the episodic nature of equipment consolidation cycles rather than loss of customer relationship. Ten awards with ultimate completion dates in the next twenty-four months carry combined potential value of $5.6 million and represent recompete exposure, primarily small preventative-maintenance and equipment-upgrade orders at VA medical centers and Indian Health Service facilities. Shimadzu operates entirely as a prime contractor with no subcontractor role in the source data; the company maintains sole responsibility for equipment supply, installation, and ongoing maintenance services across its federal customer base.
