About this award
The Department of Veterans Affairs, Veterans Integrated Service Network 12, awarded a $36,324.55 firm fixed price contract to the University of Wisconsin System's Research and Sponsored Programs division on March 15, 2019, with an ultimate completion date of April 30, 2026. The contract supports the Animal Research Facility (ARF) at Madison VA Hospital, an Association for Assessment and Accreditation of Laboratory Animal Care (AAALAC) accredited facility housing over 2,500 mice and rats for research purposes. The contract deliverables include maintaining an ongoing health surveillance program to preserve animal health, prevent disease outbreaks, and maintain research integrity, as well as conducting routine sanitation testing of animal housing equipment to prevent disease transmission to other animals and personnel. This non-set-aside award was issued on a definitive contract basis with firm fixed pricing.
The University of Wisconsin System, a land grant institution with extensive experience in federally-funded research, provides specialized animal research support and scientific services across multiple federal agencies. This contract aligns with the VA's mission to support medical research while maintaining rigorous standards for laboratory animal care and welfare. The relatively modest ceiling value reflects the specific, focused scope of health surveillance and sanitation testing services required to sustain AAALAC accreditation and ensure the quality and integrity of ongoing VA-supported research conducted at the Madison facility.
