Delivery Order SPE2DE24D0013-SPE2D626F085C

The Defense Logistics Agency Medical Supply Chain awarded a $13,600 firm fixed-price delivery order to Cepheid Inc. on November 10, 2025, with an ultimate completion date of November 18, 2025. This delivery order, issued under contract number 4569971788 for the XPCOV2/FLU/RSV-10 product line, represents a procurement of molecular diagnostic testing supplies and reagents for detecting COVID-19, influenza, and respiratory syncytial virus. The contract carries no set-aside designation and is being performed at Cepheid's headquarters location in Sunnyvale, California. Cepheid, a leading manufacturer of advanced molecular diagnostic systems, has established itself as a primary federal supplier across multiple federal healthcare agencies including the Department of Veterans Affairs, Indian Health Service, Defense Health Agency, and the U.S. Coast Guard.

This delivery order is likely issued under one of Cepheid's existing indefinite delivery vehicles with the Department of Veterans Affairs or Defense Logistics Agency, which serve as the primary contracting mechanisms for the company's diagnostic testing solutions. The relatively modest contract value reflects a single ordering period for molecular diagnostic reagents and test kits designed to support federal clinical laboratory operations and infectious disease testing requirements. Cepheid's extensive portfolio of firm fixed-price contracts across multiple federal healthcare facilities demonstrates the company's competitive positioning in the federal molecular diagnostics procurement market and its critical role in supplying rapid diagnostic testing capabilities for respiratory pathogens throughout the federal healthcare system.
