Wahts Hearing LLC

Wahts Hearing LLC, a Lebanon, New Hampshire-based for-profit limited liability company, manufactures wireless automated hearing test systems, boothless audiometric equipment, and integrated hearing assessment software platforms exclusively for federal agencies as a prime contractor and holds no SBA certifications. The company competes full-and-open with no recurrent set-aside posture, though it participates in both set-aside and unrestricted competitions. Wahts Hearing LLC is classified under NAICS 334510 (Electromedical and Electrotherapeutic Apparatus Manufacturing) and operates with no subcontract footprint across its recent federal award portfolio.

The vendor's federal capability centers on wireless automated hearing test systems (WAHTS AC systems), boothless portable audiometry equipment, administrative tablets with integrated software, annual calibration and quality assurance services, software licensing, and hearing protection fit-testing equipment. Representative prime work includes a $21.3 million single-award indefinite delivery contract from the Defense Logistics Agency Troop Support Medical (Medical Supply Chain) awarded February 24, 2026, through February 23, 2031, supporting defense-sector hearing-assessment procurement across the Army, Veterans Affairs, Defense Health Agency, Naval Sea Systems Command, and National Guard units; a $4 million Federal Supply Schedule contract (36F79723D0040) under Medical Equipment and Supplies (FSS-65-II-A) with the Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration through December 2027; and a $1,099,473 Small Business Innovation Research Phase II contract from the Defense Health Agency Medical Command for a multi-user, reliable hearing protection fit-test system with integrated education (awarded April 28, 2023, completed August 27, 2025).

Customer concentration is extreme: the Defense Logistics Agency Troop Support Medical dominates both volume and dollars, accounting for 125 awards (70% of all recent awards) with $26.7 million in combined potential value (72% of total). The Department of the Army ranks second with 14 awards and $2 million combined potential value, followed by the Defense Health Agency with 8 awards totaling $761 thousand and GSA Federal Acquisition Service with 3 awards totaling $193 thousand. Together, these four agencies represent 85% of awards by count and 91% of combined potential value. This concentration reflects the vendor's single-award IDIQ with DLA as the primary procurement vehicle and broad task-order activity through that vehicle.

Wahts Hearing LLC's prime vehicle portfolio consists of two parent contracts. The Defense Logistics Agency Troop Support Medical indefinite delivery contract (SPE2DH26D0007), the single-award vehicle with a $21.3 million ceiling, has generated 124 task orders valued at approximately $5.4 million in combined potential value, delivering WAHTS AC systems, boothless audiometers, mobile audiometry headsets with administrative tablets, hearing fit-testing systems, calibration and maintenance services, and software licenses. The Medical Equipment and Supplies Federal Supply Schedule (FSS-65-II-A) through the Department of Veterans Affairs has generated 38 task orders valued at approximately $3.7 million in combined potential value, enabling multiple federal agencies including the Department of the Army, Defense Health Agency, National Guard units, Naval Sea Systems Command, and civilian agencies such as the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration and Bureau of Land Management to procure WAHTS equipment at standard FSS pricing ($7,165.33 per system with $1,706.03 annual software access; quantity discounts for orders of 21 or more units; 45-day delivery to the contiguous United States).

Activity has grown sharply: two awards through 2023, twelve in 2024, twenty-eight in 2025, and 136 awards in 2026 (through late September), reflecting maturation of the DLA IDIQ vehicle and broadening federal adoption. Combined potential value across all 178 prime awards stands at $37 million, with $10.4 million obligated (28% of potential). Eight awards totaling $1.5 million in combined potential value complete within the next twenty-four months, presenting recompete risk for the vendor and recompete opportunity for competitors. Recent notable orders include a $317,234 Army delivery order for 30 WAHTS AC systems under FSS-65-II-A (July 14, 2026), a $545,197 Defense Health Agency SBIR Phase II Enhancement contract under Total Small Business set-aside (April 10, 2026), a $251,027 North Carolina National Guard order for WAHTS hearing devices under Total Small Business set-aside (June 23, 2026), a $234,578 Army delivery order for wireless hearing test devices under the FSS schedule (September 24, 2025), and a $182,204 Army delivery order for boothless audiometry equipment with calibration and software maintenance under Total Small Business set-aside (August 27, 2024).
