The U.S. Department of Agriculture's Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS) Veterinary Services has awarded a $2,000,000 Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) to Vmrd Inc., a for-profit manufacturer of veterinary diagnostic test kits, for the delivery of Theileria equi and Babesia caballi test kits. This single-award BPA, which does not use a set-aside, has a performance period through January 2029.
Under this BPA, APHIS has issued multiple firm fixed-price BPA calls to Vmrd Inc. for the supply of antibody test kits and specialized Theileria equi and Babesia caballi test kits. The total value of the BPA calls awarded to date is approximately $332,207, with each contract designated as a total small business set-aside. The test kits are used to support APHIS's disease surveillance, monitoring, eradication, and import testing programs, particularly for the National Veterinary Services Laboratories located in Ames, Iowa and Pullman, Washington. Vmrd Inc. has a long-standing history of providing these types of specialized veterinary diagnostic products to APHIS through various contract vehicles.
