This federal contract award, with a ceiling value of $215,430.44, was made to The American National Red Cross (Red Cross) to provide blood and blood products to the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) and other federal agencies. The Red Cross, operating through its Shared Service Center Division, is a major supplier of critical medical commodities and related services to the government, including leukoreduced red blood cells, platelets, transfusion support, and laboratory testing.
The contract is not set aside and is a delivery order under an Indefinite Delivery Contract (IDC) or Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) vehicle, which allows VA and other agencies to efficiently order blood products and services on an as-needed basis. The Red Cross holds several significant IDVs with the VA, Defense Health Agency, and other federal partners, valued up to $25 million, to ensure a reliable supply chain for their healthcare operations. As the nation's largest humanitarian organization, the Red Cross leverages its extensive blood collection network and healthcare expertise to fulfill these critical federal contract requirements.
