About this IDV
Alba Bioscience, Inc., a Chicago-based subsidiary of Quotient Biodiagnostics, Inc., holds a Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) with Veterans Integrated Service Network 17 (VISN 17) under General Services Administration Schedule 65-VII for In Vitro Diagnostics, Reagents, and Tests. The original BPA, awarded May 1, 2022, carries a ceiling value of $50,000 and extends through April 30, 2027, with a Total Small Business set-aside designation. The contract procures blood bank reagents essential for transfusion services and diagnostic testing across Department of Veterans Affairs facilities. Alba Bioscience's product portfolio includes ALBACLONE monoclonal antibodies targeting multiple blood group antigens (Anti-A, Anti-B, Anti-C, Anti-D, Anti-K, Anti-E, Anti-FYB, Anti-JKA, Anti-LEA, and Anti-P1), antibody identification panels in 10-cell and 16-cell configurations, antibody screening products in 2-cell and 3-cell formats, quality control kits (ALBASURE QC kits), additives including bovine serum albumin and LISS solutions, and specialized reagent cells such as immunoglobulin G-sensitized cells and C3-coated red blood cells. Performance locations include facilities in Newtown, Pennsylvania; Chicago, Illinois; and Dallas, Texas.
Five task orders have been issued under this BPA, each valued at approximately $7,600 (ranging from $7,302.55 to $7,634.01) on firm fixed-price terms, with annual awards occurring each May 1 from 2022 through 2026. The recurring task orders reflect sustained demand for Alba Bioscience's specialized immunohematology products to support blood typing, antibody screening, and transfusion service operations across the VA's integrated healthcare system. No set-aside designations have been applied to the individual task orders, indicating competitive procurement based on Alba Bioscience's specialized capabilities and established supplier relationship with VISN 17. The vendor's current federal contracting activity also includes additional Blanket Purchase Agreements with other Veterans Integrated Service Networks and established relationships with the Defense Logistics Agency and National Institutes of Health, demonstrating broad utilization of Alba Bioscience's blood banking diagnostic materials across multiple federal healthcare agencies.
