About this award

The Department of Health and Human Services' Biomedical Advanced Research & Development Authority (BARDA) awarded a $25.5 million firm fixed-price definitive contract to Avita Medical Americas, LLC for the procurement and deployment of FDA-approved autograft sparing devices designed to reduce donor skin requirements for treating full-thickness thermal burn wounds. The contract, which commenced April 6, 2026 with an ultimate completion date of April 5, 2036, establishes a vendor-managed inventory system capable of rapidly deploying medical devices to burn and trauma centers within 24 hours to support national preparedness for mass casualty incidents. Avita Medical's RECELL System, which isolates a patient's own skin cells to produce a spray-on skin suspension, enables faster healing times and shorter hospital stays compared to traditional burn treatment methods. The award was made through full and open competition with no set-aside designation under FAR Part 12 commercial item procedures.

The contract structure encompasses a base period extending from September 30, 2025 through September 29, 2035, organized around five Contract Line Item Numbers covering initial device procurement, vendor-managed inventory maintenance, emergency deployment capabilities, additional procurement options, and related deployment functions. The procurement authorizes a maximum of 3,000 device units, including initial procurement of up to 1,000 units with potential for up to 2,000 additional units. Performance will be conducted from Avita Medical's facility in Valencia, California. This procurement reflects BARDA's strategic focus on medical countermeasures and emergency preparedness, leveraging Avita Medical's established experience providing the RECELL System to the Department of Defense for military burn care applications.
