Government Buyers

For Contracting Officers and Cardholders

Buying from us

We are a service-disabled veteran-owned small business and a dealer. We quote current
delivered pricing, we take the government purchase card, and we will tell you plainly
what we cannot certify.

The fastest path is the purchase card

Most of what we sell lands well under the micro-purchase threshold, which means you
can buy it on the card without a solicitation.

Micro-purchase

Up to $15,000

Raised from $10,000 effective 1 October 2025. GSA SmartPay card accepted. Send us the
item, the quantity, and the delivery point, and we return a quote you can act on,
typically within one business day.

Emergency & contingency

Up to $25,000 (inside the US)

When the head of the agency determines an acquisition supports a contingency
operation, an emergency or major disaster (42 U.S.C. 5122), or defense against or recovery
from a cyber, nuclear, biological, chemical or radiological attack, or international disaster
assistance requested by the Secretary of State or USAID, the micro-purchase threshold is
$25,000 inside the United States and $40,000 outside it (FAR 2.101; 13.201(g)(1)), and
the simplified acquisition threshold is $1 million inside the United States and $2 million
outside it (FAR 2.101). Each purchase must have a clear and direct relationship to that
support (FAR 13.201(g)(2)).

Simplified acquisition

Up to $350,000

Raised from $250,000. FAR Part 13 procedures. We quote, and we tell you up front which
lines can carry a set-aside and which cannot — see below.

Card payment, and why it suits your file. Below the micro-purchase
threshold a card buy needs no contract action, no invoice cycle and no payment office.
The order closes in a day and the whole file is a quote and a receipt. We take the
purchase card across the full micro-purchase range.
And one thing we will not pretend. Below the micro-purchase threshold our
SDVOSB status does not help you procedurally, and a card buy does not earn your agency
small-business goaling credit — micro-purchases are not reported to FPDS. So buy from us
because the product is right, the origin is stated per line and the quote typically comes
back within one business day. Not because of what we are.

What we can and cannot certify

This is the part most dealer websites leave out, and it is the part that will
cost you a protest if it is wrong.

The nonmanufacturer rule

It applies to SDVOSB supply set-asides, at any value

Under 13 CFR 121.406, a dealer bidding a supply set-aside must furnish
the end item of a small business manufacturer, made in the United States,
unless a waiver applies. For an SDVOSB set-aside, that reaches supply acquisitions at every
dollar value — not just above the simplified acquisition threshold. It is a supply-NAICS
rule under 13 CFR 121.406(b)(3); it does not reach a services acquisition.

So we will tell you, per line, whether it qualifies.
Where it does not, we will say so rather than let you find out at award.

Buy American and TAA

We certify from documents, not from brands

Most of what we sell is a commercial off-the-shelf item, and the Buy American domestic
content test is waived for COTS — with one exception we will raise before you do.
The COTS waiver does not reach items made wholly or predominantly of iron or
steel
(FAR 25.101(a)(2)(ii)). Grab bars, steel ramps, enclosures and similar
are held to a stricter test, not an easier one.

So the catalog states origin one of three ways, and it says which.
Manufacturer document on file: country of manufacture is stated and
documentation is available on request. Manufacturer statement only:
country of manufacture is stated as manufacturer-stated, with no certification — the
statement itself is available on request. Neither: the catalog says
“unverified.” For iron-and-steel items we ask the manufacturer specifically
about foreign iron and steel content on the same basis. We will not certify
without a document.
A brand’s headquarters is not where a product is built.

Ask us which lines have a manufacturer origin document on file:

A note on how this cuts. For a supply acquisition, a plain small-business
set-aside at or below $350,000 does not trigger the nonmanufacturer rule, while an
SDVOSB supply set-aside does — at any value. If you have discretion over how an action is
structured, that is worth knowing before it is issued.

Department of Veterans Affairs

VA is the reason this business is shaped the way it is. Under the VA Acquisition
Regulation, contracting officers give priority to verified service-disabled
veteran-owned firms, and the VA Rule of Two requires contracting officers to set aside
contract actions above the micro-purchase threshold for them where market research shows
two or more are expected to offer and award can be made at a fair and reasonable price
that offers best value.

We are equally reachable through routine channels — a card purchase from a VA medical
centre or a VISN facility needs no vehicle at all, and that is usually the quickest way
to get equipment to a veteran who needs it.

Where we are working toward

  • VA FSS Schedule 65 II F — Patient Mobility Devices (PSC 6530), which is
    where rollators, walkers, wheelchairs and portable ramp systems sit. Note the Trade
    Agreements Act applies to Schedule orders, so only US or designated-country product can go
    on one.
  • DLA ECAT — used by VA for medical items not available on existing
    contracts.

How to order

  1. Send us the requirement. Item or SKU, quantity, delivery point, and
    the date you need it. Request a quote by email or phone.
  2. We quote in writing. Manufacturer, country of manufacture, lead time,
    delivered price, and — if you are running a set-aside — whether the line satisfies the
    nonmanufacturer rule.
  3. You buy. Card, purchase order, or however your action is structured.
  4. We order and ship to your delivery point, with tracking.

We do not install, and no quote from us includes installation. Where equipment needs
installing, that is arranged separately by you with a contractor of your choosing.
