About this award
The Department of Veterans Affairs, Veterans Integrated Service Network (VISN) 19, awarded a Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) call to Cepheid Inc. valued at $993,767 on October 1, 2023, with completion targeted for September 30, 2024. This firm fixed-price contract, executed through the General Services Administration's Multiple Award Schedule, supports Cepheid's provision of molecular testing solutions and diagnostic capabilities at the company's Sunnyvale, California facility. The award represents a continuation of the VA's reliance on Cepheid as a primary federal supplier of advanced molecular diagnostic systems, reagents, and test kits for infectious disease detection, including COVID-19, influenza, respiratory syncytial virus, and other clinical conditions through its GeneXpert diagnostic platform.
This BPA call operates within the framework of Cepheid's broader federal contract portfolio, which includes substantial Indefinite Delivery Contracts with the VA across multiple VISNs. Notably, Cepheid maintains a $32.8 million single-award IDC with VISN 6 extending through September 30, 2030, and a $6.7 million IDC with VISN 17, both supporting ongoing procurement of diagnostic reagents and testing solutions across VA medical centers. The contract carries no small business set-aside designation, reflecting Cepheid's competitive positioning in the federal molecular diagnostics market. This award demonstrates the VA's continued investment in rapid, reliable diagnostic capabilities to support clinical laboratory operations and infectious disease testing across its distributed network of healthcare facilities.
