Steris Instrument Management Services, Inc.

Steris Instrument Management Services, Inc., a division of Steris Corporation headquartered in Cooper City, Florida, delivers surgical instrument repair, maintenance, sharpening, sterilization, and related medical equipment services to federal healthcare agencies as a prime contractor competing without set-asides across full-and-open federal procurements. The company operates across 116 federal awards carrying a combined potential value of $99.5 million, with all work self-performed and no subcontractor engagement.

Steris's customer base concentrates heavily within the Veterans Health Administration and Defense Health Agency. The top five customers account for 92% of combined potential value by dollars and 71% by award count, anchored by the Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Integrated Service Network 12 (six awards, $75.2 million combined potential value), driven by a single $1.56 million definitive contract for on-site instrument repair and sharpening at the James Lovell Federal Healthcare Center in North Chicago, Illinois running through September 2027. The Defense Health Agency places fifteen awards worth $8.7 million, including overseas work at Landstuhl Regional Medical Center in Germany and naval hospitals in Italy, Spain, and Bahrain. The Indian Health Service issues the highest frequency of awards (26 awards, $2.8 million combined potential value) across seven Oklahoma facilities under a new $1.25 million single-award BPA established in June 2026. Veterans Integrated Service Network 4 in Pennsylvania places 25 awards, $1.7 million combined potential value, predominantly for emergency surgical instrument sharpening and repair at multiple VAMC locations. The divergence between award-count and dollar-value rankings reflects a pattern of many small emergency orders (VISN 4, IHS) sustained alongside larger multi-year delivery orders and definitive contracts (VISN 12, DHA).

Steris operates under GSA Federal Supply Schedule Medical Equipment and Supplies (FSS-65-II-A) as a primary vehicle, with 46 task orders generating $6.1 million in combined potential value. The company also holds single-award Blanket Purchase Agreements with the Defense Health Agency (ceiling $913,222, ultimate completion May 2027), the Indian Health Service (ceiling $1.25 million, June 2031), and multiple VA VISNs including VISN 2 (Finger Lakes VA Healthcare Network, $450,000 through November 2025), VISN 4 (Pennsylvania mobile instrument maintenance, $257,400 through April 2028), and newly awarded single-award IDIQs with VISN 23 for sterile instrument services at Minneapolis VAMC ($1.1 million through September 2030) and Black Hills Health Care System ($399,999.80 through September 2027). These vehicles anchor recurring task order activity across dispersed VA medical centers and military treatment facilities.

Award activity has remained steady to slightly declining—19 awards in both 2022 and 2023, 22 in 2024, falling to 16 in 2025 and eight year-to-date in 2026—with six awards (combined potential value $3 million) facing ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months and therefore entering recompete exposure.

Service Contract Inventory data captures $2 million in SCI-reportable invoiced federal service-contract revenue across FY2022–FY2025, with sharp growth in FY2025: $990 thousand invoiced against 126 FTEs, compared to $380 thousand across 0.4 FTEs in FY2024. SCI represents only contracts above the $150,000 reporting threshold and excludes goods, products, and non-service activity; the bulk of Steris's federal awards are purchase orders and delivery orders for medical equipment, parts, and repair materials below or outside SCI's scope. Government-paid hourly rates on Steris's service-contract work run a median of $319.43 per hour, with rates ranging from $309.84 at the 10th percentile to $329.03 at the 90th percentile across prime contracts. Steris self-performs all reported work with zero subcontractor engagement across the SCI dataset.

The vendor's work centers on the PSC code Maintenance/Repair/Rebuild Of Equipment—Medical, Dental, And Veterinary Equipment And Supplies (63 awards), with secondary concentration in Medical And Surgical Instruments, Equipment, And Supplies (27 awards). Primary NAICS framing is Other Electronic and Precision Equipment Repair and Maintenance (69 awards), reflecting the specialized, labor-intensive nature of surgical instrument sterilization, sharpening, and calibration performed at individual VA medical centers, military treatment facilities, and tribal health centers. Recent representative work includes a $1.03 million purchase order with VISN 9 for weekly on-site repairs at Robley Rex VAMC in Louisville, Kentucky through July 2029; a $558,168 purchase order with VISN 12 for prevacuum sterilizer cleaning and medical/dental instrument sharpening at Milwaukee VA facilities through February 2031; and a $418,950 purchase order with the Defense Health Agency for on-site repair and maintenance at Bethesda, Maryland through September 2028. Steris also supplies medical equipment and surgical carts on smaller purchase orders (ranging from $12,914 to $140,321) to individual VA medical centers and defense facilities.

Steris Instrument Management Services, Inc. is a child entity of Steris Corporation, a global medical technology and life sciences firm headquartered in Mentor, Ohio. The subsidiary's federal footprint reflects the parent company's sterilization, surgical instrument management, and medical equipment service capabilities, with the division managing federal healthcare contracts independently as a registered SAM prime contractor serving domestic VA facilities, overseas military treatment facilities, and tribal health systems.
