About this award

The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) San Diego Pharmacy Service awarded a delivery order valued at $155,724.16 to Otsuka America Pharmaceutical Inc. for the sole-source procurement of Jynarque (tolvaptan), a specialty pharmaceutical used to treat autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease and hyponatremia. This firm-fixed-price contract, awarded on October 4, 2022, with an ultimate completion date of September 30, 2023, was issued without a set-aside designation under the Pharmaceuticals and Drugs Federal Supply Schedule (FSS-61-IB). The sole-source justification reflects Otsuka America Pharmaceutical Inc.'s exclusive distributor status for this critical medication through its partnership with AllianceRx Walgreens Specialty Pharmacy, with performance to occur in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.

This delivery order is issued under Otsuka America Pharmaceutical Inc.'s larger Blanket Purchase Agreement with the VA's National Acquisition Center, valued at approximately $83.3 million through March 2026, which enables Veterans Integrated Service Networks nationwide to efficiently procure Jynarque and other specialty pharmaceuticals. The contractor's established Federal Supply Schedule contract portfolio exceeding $396 million demonstrates its significant capability to supply federal healthcare systems. This procurement supports the VA's Veterans Health Administration mission of providing specialized pharmaceutical treatments to veterans across multiple integrated service networks, including VISN 22.
