About the company
Ted Pella, Inc., a for-profit manufacturer and distributor of laboratory and microscopy equipment headquartered in Redding, California, operates as a prime contractor delivering specialized scientific instruments and supplies to federal agencies, holding a $10 million single-award Blanket Purchase Agreement with the Department of Health and Human Services. The company competes in full-and-open procurement with no set-aside designations across its recent federal contract footprint (99% prime awards, 1% subcontract work), serving 67 distinct customer agencies since 1988 with a long-standing track record in analytical laboratory instrumentation and life sciences supply.
Ted Pella's customer base concentrates heavily within health-and-science agencies, though the distribution is inverted between award count and dollar value. By award count, the top five customers account for 14% of total awards: the Department of the Treasury United States Mint (16 awards, $52 thousand), the Department of the Navy Office of Naval Research (14 awards, $163 thousand), the FDA (8 awards, $160 thousand), the NIH Office of the Director (8 awards, $15 thousand), and the USDA Agricultural Research Service (6 awards, $64 thousand). By potential value, however, the Department of Health and Human Services dominates with 87% of combined potential dollars concentrated in three awards totaling $11 million placed under the NIH Office of Logistics and Acquisition Operations — a dramatic value concentration driven by the $10 million BPA vehicle awarded August 1, 2024 and running through July 31, 2026. The Navy Office of Naval Research ranks second by dollars at $163 thousand across fourteen awards, indicating consistent small-order volume rather than program-scale value.
Recent representative work includes a $51,410 firm-fixed-price purchase order from the Office of Naval Research for a high-resolution sputter coater (April 2026), a $23,734 silicon wafer dicer for the HHS Shared Services Center (July 2025), and a $29,700 Pelco Biwave Microwave System for the VA Boston Healthcare System (April 2024). The portfolio spans analytical laboratory instrument manufacturing (109 awards, primary NAICS category) and medical-surgical instrument supply (60 awards), with additional exposure in textile consumables and diagnostic reagent categories. Ted Pella places task orders against legacy Blanket Purchase Agreements under the HHS contracting infrastructure: 16 task orders on BPA HHSN263199900051262B ($101 thousand combined) and 3 task orders on BPA HHSN263201500267B ($24 thousand combined). Award activity has remained sparse in recent years (1 to 5 awards annually across 2022–2026), with two subcontract engagements — one with the Aerospace Corporation for a Cressington carbon coater (June 2025) and one with Gryphon Technologies for analytical electron microscopy services and planchet materials (August 2024). The company's $10 million HHS BPA vehicle carrying ultimate completion July 31, 2026 faces recompete exposure in that window.
