Becton Dickinson & Co. (NYSE:BDX) subsidiary CareFusion won a U.S. Defense Dept. contract worth nearly $50 million, the Pentagon said yesterday.

San Diego-based Carefusion Solutions won the five-year, $49.5 million contract for medical equipment. The firm-fixed-price with economic-price-adjustment deal was awarded after the military reviewed bids from 31 suitors and is good to Dec. 20, 2022.

The Pentagon also said it granted a $200 million contract to American Medical Depot of Miramar, Fla., for medical surgical items, exercising the third one-year option on the contract. That deal, good to Dec. 31 next year, is a fixed-price with economic-price-adjustment, indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity contract, the Defense Dept. said.

Both companies will supply the U.S. Army, Navy, Air Force and the Marine Corps, plus federal civilian agencies, according to the Pentagon.
