About this award
The National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) awarded a cost-plus-fixed-fee delivery order to Fisher Bioservices Inc. valued at $1.06 million for repository services supporting the NICHD Fetal Growth Study (NFGS). The task order, issued on February 26, 2025, with completion scheduled for August 25, 2035, encompasses the storage, maintenance, and distribution of 115,905 human biospecimens generated through this longitudinal research initiative. Fisher Bioservices, a subsidiary of Thermo Electron Corporation based in Rockville, Maryland, specializes in biorepository and scientific services for federal research agencies and has maintained an active federal contracting relationship since 2001. This award was issued as a delivery order under an existing indefinite delivery contract vehicle and includes cost savings realized during pre-award negotiations.
This delivery order represents a continuation of Fisher Bioservices' extensive support for NIH research infrastructure, particularly within NICHD's portfolio of pediatric and maternal health studies. The contract carries no small business set-aside designation. The company's role involves managing the complete lifecycle of biological specimens essential to understanding fetal growth patterns and developmental health outcomes. Fisher Bioservices' established track record with NICHD and other NIH institutes, combined with its specialized expertise in specimen preservation and distribution, positions it as a critical resource for maintaining the scientific integrity of long-term cohort studies that inform public health policy and clinical practice.
