The VA is conducting market research to identify contractors capable of providing blood donor panel testing services for Captain James A. Lovell Federal Health Care Center at 3001 Green Bay Road, North Chicago, IL, under NAICS 621511. Testing must comply with FDA, AABB, CAP, TJC, OSHA, CDC, CLIA, and DoD requirements and covers standard donor panels plus Anti-CMV, Trypanosoma cruzi, West Nile virus, Babesia, isohemagglutinin, HLA TRALI mitigation, and red cell antibody identification, with estimated volumes such as 6,200 standard panels per year over five years. The requirement is structured as a five-year ordering period from 03/01/2027 through 02/29/2032, with five one-year priced periods. The contractor must supply specimen shipment containers, perform and report testing generally within 24 hours of specimen receipt under a 95% performance standard, complete confirmation testing within 7 calendar days of an initial reactive result, and respond to issues within 60 minutes. Responses will be used to assess market capacity and may lead to a small-business set-aside, sole source, or full-and-open competition; interested qualified firms should provide company information and tailored capability statements.
