Wyeast Medical Corp

Wyeast Medical Corp, through its WY East Medical Division, manufactures and supplies patient mobility and safe handling equipment to the Department of Veterans Affairs and other federal healthcare agencies as a prime contractor on full-and-open GSA Federal Supply Schedule vehicles and a single-award VA indefinite-delivery contract. The company is a for-profit Subchapter S corporation based in Clackamas, Oregon, holds no SBA certifications, and competes without set-aside protection across NAICS 339113 (Surgical Appliance and Supplies Manufacturing) and related medical equipment procurement categories.

Wyeast's capability portfolio centers on powered and non-powered patient lifts, transfer chairs, sit-to-stand assist devices, walkers, and related safe patient handling equipment. Recent representative awards include a $36,060 delivery order from Veterans Integrated Service Network 20 in September 2026 for Denali patient extraction lifts under GSA Schedule FSS-65-II-A (Total Small Business set-aside), a $149,600 August 2026 delivery order from VISN 21 for non-powered stand aid devices under the same schedule, a $166,905.60 June 2026 order from VISN 16 for powered mobile floor lifts, and a $103,891.28 July 2025 order from VISN 9 for thirteen sit-stand patient lifts under FSS-65-II-F (Patient Mobility Devices). The company operates from manufacturing facilities in Happy Valley and Clackamas, Oregon, with secondary delivery locations distributed across VA medical facilities nationwide.

Customer concentration is overwhelming and single-agency focused. The Department of Veterans Affairs (all components) accounts for substantially all awards across the portfolio; the top five VA customer nodes by award count—Veterans Integrated Service Networks 22, 21, 15, 7, and 10—represent 44% of total awards. By potential value, VA Headquarters commands $13.1 million across eight awards, followed by VISN 12 at $10.5 million across six awards. The Defense Health Agency and Indian Health Service account for occasional spot orders, but represent material outliers in an otherwise VA-concentrated customer base.

Wyeast holds two primary vehicle positions anchoring its federal work. The GSA Medical Equipment and Supplies Federal Supply Schedule (FSS-65-II-A), awarded November 1, 2021, with an $8.6 million ceiling running through October 31, 2031, carries 58 task orders and $2.4 million in combined potential value. The Department of Veterans Affairs single-award indefinite-delivery contract for powered sit-to-stand lift assist with ambulation, awarded February 22, 2023, with a $12.4 million ceiling and completion through February 21, 2027, drives the largest dollar volume through fewer, higher-value delivery orders including a $69,642.67 September 2025 order, a $59,683.35 April 2024 order with September 2028 completion, and a $50,581.38 multi-month January-to-May 2025 order. The GSA Federal Supply Schedule V797P4025A appears across 30 task orders valued at $5.8 million combined, likely representing a secondary schedule vehicle or consolidated reporting of FSS work.

Activity has remained steady across the past five years—five to nine awards annually from 2022 through 2026—with only five awards (combined potential value $430 thousand) reaching ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, indicating limited near-term recompete exposure. The company's federal footprint is 100% prime work; it holds no subcontract relationships in the source data. Cost posture across awards is firm fixed-price across all visible delivery orders, ranging from sub-$13,000 to $166,905, with most orders completing within three to six months of award. Wyeast manufactures goods domestically and does not rely on subcontractors for the delivery orders in its portfolio, operating as a vertical manufacturer-to-federal-customer model without supply-chain intermediaries.
