VA Healthcare & Services Contracts — August 12, 2026

Leidos (via QTC Medical Services) secured a $113.9M firm-fixed-price delivery order from the VA for medical disability exams, with $104.6M already outlaid. The high outlay rate signals strong execution and recurring, low-risk revenue from a stable civilian agency.

Leidos derives significant revenue from this single VA contract ($113.9M), creating dependency on the VA's budget for medical disability exams. While mandated by law, any future re-compete loss or funding shift could materially impact Leidos' civilian revenue stream.

Leidos' competitive win under full-and-open competition suggests potential to expand VA medical exam contracts to other regions, growing its civilian healthcare services footprint beyond this $113.9M award.

VA medical disability examinations are mandated by law (Public Law 104-275), ensuring consistent, non-discretionary funding. This contract demonstrates the durability of civilian healthcare services tied to veteran benefits, even amid broader budget uncertainty.
