How to Bid Federal Contracts in NAICS 423450
VA NAC pharmaceutical and medical-supply IDIQs are the highest-value on-ramps for distributors. FSS Schedule 65 allows distributor participation for cataloged medical products. Cold-chain logistics capability (for vaccines, biologics, temperature-sensitive diagnostics) is a differentiator. FDA wholesale-distributor state licensure is required for pharmaceutical distribution. Most VA NAC IDIQs are competed on a price-and-delivery basis with a preference for domestic manufacturers.
