Werdiger MD Norman S

Werdiger MD Norman S, a sole proprietor operating from Guilford, Connecticut, provides medical expert services and case review analysis to the federal government as a prime contractor exclusively, with 100% of recent awards held without subcontractors. The vendor competes primarily under total small business set-asides and full-and-open designations across a narrow but established specialty: medical expert witness services and vaccine injury compensation case review.

The vendor's customer concentration is extreme and immobile. The Department of Health and Human Services Health Resources and Services Administration accounts for 21 of 22 awards (100% of combined potential value, $8.1 million), with the Department of Justice Civil Division holding a single $17 thousand expert witness call. Werdiger MD Norman S operates almost entirely within the Vaccine Injury Compensation Program (VICP) and Countermeasures Injury Compensation Program (CICP) space. The vendor's NAICS profile and PSC code both reflect this specialization: 22 awards fall under "Offices of Physicians (except Mental Health Specialists)" and "Support - Professional: Expert Witness," respectively.

The vendor's vehicle position consists of three Blanket Purchase Agreements with HRSA. The largest is a $7.5 million single-award BPA established May 15, 2026, running through May 14, 2031, which supersedes a prior May 5, 2021 BPA (ceiling $249,999) under which the vendor issued seven task orders ($23 thousand combined potential value) between 2021 and 2026. A second prior BPA vehicle carried ten task orders ($67 thousand combined potential value). Recent task orders under the current $7.5 million BPA include a $18,750 Competitive Total Small Business call issued September 1, 2026 (ultimate completion August 31, 2027), a $15,000 Total Small Business call issued April 18, 2025 (ultimate completion March 17, 2026), and individual case review calls ranging from $1,500 to $18,750 for discrete VICP and CICP cases. The vendor also holds a single $16,628 purchase-order expert witness award from the Department of Justice Civil Division issued June 23, 2024.

Activity is sparse and irregular: one award in 2022, two in 2023, one in 2024, one in 2025, and two in 2026. Combined dollars obligated across all awards total $125 thousand against $8.1 million in combined potential value, indicating the vast majority of the portfolio remains unexercised. Two awards reach ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months (combined potential value $35 thousand). The vendor operates exclusively in vaccine injury compensation medical review and expert analysis, with no diversification into other federal capabilities, customer agencies, or contracting vehicles.
