This firm fixed-price contract award is issued under the General Services Administration's Critical Analyzers, Laboratory (FSS-66-III) Federal Supply Schedule and represents a continuation of Beckman Coulter's established diagnostic testing capabilities supporting the Department of Veterans Affairs.
