SHOCKWAVE MEDICAL, INC.

Shockwave Medical, Inc. specializes in the design, manufacture, and delivery of advanced intravascular lithotripsy (IVL) catheters and associated cardiovascular intervention systems for use in peripheral and coronary vascular procedures. Their core capabilities center on minimally invasive medical devices that utilize pressure-wave technology to treat calcified arterial lesions, enabling improved vessel preparation prior to stent placement. The company demonstrates deep technical expertise in catheter-based delivery systems, precision engineering of balloon-based lithotripsy platforms, and integration of generator hardware with disposable catheter components. Key differentiators include proprietary IVL technology validated in clinical settings, regulatory-compliant manufacturing processes for Class III medical devices, and a focus on delivering reliable, single-use interventional tools to high-acuity care environments. The contractor maintains a strong, sustained relationship with the Department of Veterans Affairs, supplying critical vascular intervention devices for use in VA medical centers nationwide, including catheters, generators, and connectors used in interventional radiology and cardiology units. The Department of Defense is also a client, with contracts supporting cardiovascular care at major military medical facilities such as Walter Reed National Military Medical Center. Work for both agencies centers on procuring FDA-cleared, commercially available medical devices for procedural use in veteran and service member care. Shockwave Medical operates primarily under NAICS 339112, focusing on surgical and medical instrument manufacturing, with secondary activity in surgical appliance and supply manufacturing. Their market positioning is defined by innovation in vascular intervention technology, serving specialized clinical needs in endovascular surgery and interventional cardiology. The company is headquartered in Santa Clara, California, and operates as a privately held, for-profit entity (2L structure) with no federal certifications on record. Its government market presence is defined by direct procurement of advanced medical devices rather than service-based contracting.
