New Federal Contractors — October 31, 2026

Medline received an $88,992,131 firm-fixed-price delivery order from the Department of Veterans Affairs (SAC Frederick) covering September 2026 prime vendor expenditures, awarded under full and open competition with no set-aside.

Total obligation equals base-plus-options at $88,992,131 with a performance period of only 2026-09-01 to 2026-09-30 and $0 outlayed to date, so the award carries no multi-year commitment or incremental option value.

The $88,992,131 September 2026 prime vendor figure implies a ~$1.07B annualized run-rate for Medline's VA business if the monthly pattern repeats, though recurrence is not confirmed by this single data point.

The entire $88,992,131 stream is a single award to a single recipient (Medline Industries, LP) from a single agency (Department of Veterans Affairs), offering no diversification across contractors or agencies.

The award shows $0 outlayed to date against an $88,992,131 obligation with a performance period already ending 2026-09-30, and the award date (2026-10-28) postdates the start date (2026-09-01), creating reporting/booking ambiguity.

The award was full and open competition with no set-aside and Medline is designated 'Not a Small Business,' so the position is contestable and carries no set-aside policy protection.

Medline Industries, LP can convert the $88,992,131 single-month VA prime vendor order into a recurring revenue stream if similar monthly awards continue.

An $88,992,131 monthly prime vendor expenditure report from the Department of Veterans Affairs to Medline Industries, LP evidences large-scale, recurring civilian medical-supply distribution spend under NAICS 423450 / PSC 6515.
