About this award

The Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration (VHA) Veterans Integrated Service Network 10 (VISN 10) awarded a firm fixed-price purchase order valued at $82,884.47 to the American Society of Health-System Pharmacists Inc. (ASHP) on June 7, 2024, for an API feed service providing real-time drug shortage data to VISN 10 medical centers. The contract, which carries no set-aside designation, fulfills the requirements outlined in solicitation 36C25024Q0637, issued in May 2024, to deliver standardized and continuously updated drug shortage information compatible with the VA's Power BI system, with daily updates and a minimum capacity of one API call per day. The service will be performed in Cincinnati, OH, with an ultimate completion date of May 31, 2029. ASHP, a non-profit organization headquartered in Bethesda, Maryland, is recognized as a premier provider of pharmacy-related services and accreditation to federal healthcare facilities, positioning it as the sole identified provider of this specialized drug shortage data feed service.

This award represents part of ASHP's broader engagement with the VA system on pharmaceutical supply chain management and pharmacy operations. The contract complements ASHP's significant federal grant activity in this domain, including a $3 million FDA project grant awarded in 2025 focused on identifying drugs vulnerable to shortage or fraudulent activity and addressing barriers to outsourcing facility production of critical medications. Additionally, ASHP maintains an active Indefinite Delivery Vehicle with VISN 10 (ceiling value $103,140 through July 2027) for virtual training services related to sterile compounding compliance, demonstrating the organization's established role in supporting VA pharmacy operations and workforce development across multiple service lines.
