South County Artificial Limb Company

South County Artificial Limb Company, a for-profit Rhode Island-based prosthetic device manufacturer and repair specialist, operates exclusively as a prime contractor delivering custom-designed and manufactured artificial limbs and prosthetic repair services to the Department of Veterans Affairs under full-and-open, firm fixed-price contracts with no set-aside designations. The company competes in NAICS 339113 (Surgical Appliance and Supplies Manufacturing) and PSC 6515 (Medical and Surgical Instruments, Equipment, and Supplies), with all 129 recent awards flowing from a single customer — Veterans Integrated Service Network 1 in the New England region — and all work performed in-house from facilities in Providence and Wakefield, Rhode Island without subcontractors.

South County's federal footprint is concentrated almost entirely within VISN 1's prosthetic procurement workflow. The vendor holds five parent vehicles with VISN 1, led by an Indefinite Delivery Contract (VA241P1927) carrying 35 task orders valued at $606 thousand combined potential value and a $7.5 million Blanket Purchase Agreement (36C24124A0043) awarded February 7, 2024, extending through February 6, 2029, from which 24 task orders have been placed with combined potential value of $602 thousand. Smaller IDCs (36C24118D0029, VA24115D0129, VA24113D0121) hold 35 additional task orders. Individual BPA calls typically range from $9,000 to $87,000 and reflect the customized, per-veteran nature of prosthetic procurement. Recent representative work includes a $86,943.81 call issued August 18, 2025, a $54,861.56 call issued September 26, 2024, a $54,541.51 call issued December 18, 2024, and a $52,349.04 call issued September 29, 2025 for the design, manufacture, and repair of prosthetic devices serving 12 designated VA medical centers within a 50-mile radius across Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, Massachusetts, Connecticut, and Rhode Island.

Activity has accelerated from one award in 2022 to 14 awards in 2025, though the source captures only two awards in 2026 year-to-date as of mid-July. Combined potential value across all 129 awards stands at $12.7 million, with $2 million obligated to date (16% of potential). The vendor faces minimal near-term recompete pressure — only one award with ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months carries $22 thousand in potential value — but the $7.5 million BPA and its underlying IDCs represent the core vehicle portfolio carrying the annual task-order workload. South County has maintained a continuous federal contracting relationship with the VA since SAM.gov registration in May 2004, positioning it as an established sole-source or sole-qualified supplier for prosthetic services in the New England VA network, with no identified exposure to competition from other contractors on VISN 1 awards in the source data.
