About this award

The U.S. Department of Agriculture, Agricultural Research Service (USDA ARS) Pacific West Area awarded a firm fixed-price purchase order to Miltenyi Biotec, Inc. on September 3, 2024, for a MACSQuant Tyto Cell Sorter with a ceiling value of $319,185. This specialized equipment sorts cells under sterile, low-pressure conditions and was procured without a set-aside designation, reflecting Miltenyi Biotec's role as a specialized supplier of proprietary biotechnology solutions. The contract originated from a sources-sought notice posted in July 2024 seeking qualified sources to provide a cell sorting system with 3-laser capability (405 nm, 488 nm, and 638 nm wavelengths) supporting up to 10-parameter fluorescence-based cell sorting for the Animal Disease Research Unit 3001 in Pullman, Washington. Performance of the contract is based in Auburn, California, with an ultimate completion date of December 2, 2024.

Miltenyi Biotec, Inc., headquartered in Auburn, California, is a foreign-owned biotechnology equipment manufacturer specializing in cell separation, analysis, and processing technologies that support biomedical research and cell therapy development. The company has established itself as a critical federal supplier with extensive contract awards across multiple National Institutes of Health institutes, the Department of Veterans Affairs, Department of Defense, and other agencies. Notably, Miltenyi Biotec holds a $4.6 million single-award indefinite delivery contract with the NIH Clinical Center (awarded June 26, 2023) as the exclusive supplier of CliniMACS cell isolation reagents and consumables, demonstrating the company's essential role in supporting Good Manufacturing Practice-compliant cell therapy manufacturing across over 50 intramural clinical trials. The current purchase order represents an extension of the company's federal support for advanced cell research capabilities within the USDA's agricultural research mission.
