About this award

This federal contract award, valued at $801,100.00, was issued by the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) to Lifegift Organ Donation Center, a non-profit organ procurement organization (OPO). The contract is a delivery order with a firm fixed price pricing type, and it is not designated as a set-aside.

The purpose of the contract is to provide life gift transplant donor agreement services, which are not considered an inherently governmental function. The contract supports the organ acquisition and procurement needs of the VA's liver, kidney, and heart transplant programs at the Michael E. DeBakey VA Medical Center in Houston, Texas. Lifegift is the designated OPO for this region and has been the sole source provider of these critical medical services to the VA facility through sequential contracts.

This contract award is associated with a larger indefinite delivery vehicle (IDV) that the VA awarded to Lifegift with a $7.66 million ceiling to provide organ procurement organization acquisition fees for the liver and kidney transplant programs at the DeBakey VA Medical Center from 2020 through 2025. The IDV enables the VA to issue multiple task orders to Lifegift for organ acquisition services supporting veteran transplant procedures in the Houston area.
