This single-award IDC has a ceiling value of $300,000 and a period of performance from March 27, 2018 to April 1, 2021, with no set-aside designations.
Through various firm-fixed price delivery orders issued against this IDC, Epoch Life Science has consistently delivered specialized gene synthesis and related services to support agricultural research initiatives, including those conducted at the Plum Island Animal Disease Center. The delivery orders range in value from approximately $2,000 to $250,000 and cover a variety of tasks such as mutagenesis, cloning, and synthesis of genetic material to advance the USDA ARS's research on foreign animal diseases and emerging agricultural threats. Epoch Life Science's expertise and reliability in this area have led to the award of multiple IDCs from USDA ARS, including a recent $480,361 IDC in February 2023 and previous contracts valued at $960,000 and $600,000 specifically for gene synthesis services at the Plum Island facility.
