This federal contract award to Tasso Inc., a Seattle-based startup, provides for the distribution and tracking of self-collection blood sample kits for the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA). The $870,000.00 firm fixed-price delivery order was issued under an existing Indefinite Delivery Contract (IDC) with the VA's Veterans Integrated Service Network (VISN) 1, which is valued at $5.46 million and supports the VA's mission to provide quality healthcare to veterans through at-home blood sample collection and streamlined diagnostic testing processes. The contract does not utilize a set-aside designation. Tasso Inc. also holds a separate $905,000 IDC with VISN 20 to serve as a Prime Vendor for supplying whole liquid blood self-collection kits. These contracts build on Tasso's previous awards from the Department of the Army and the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) for innovative biospecimen collection solutions.
