About this IDV
Communications Professionals Inc., a Troy, Michigan-based small disadvantaged business, was awarded a single-award Indefinite Delivery Contract valued at $1.8 million by the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Office of Administrative Services Procurement Management Branch on March 27, 2018, with an ultimate completion date of March 26, 2023. The contract does not utilize a set-aside designation and provides a framework for the supply of Abraxis test kits—specialized diagnostic equipment used for food safety analysis and pathogen detection across federal laboratories. As a Department of Transportation-certified Disadvantaged Business Enterprise and Black American-owned firm, Communications Professionals Inc. leverages this indefinite delivery vehicle to deliver testing supplies on an as-needed basis to support the agency's Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) laboratory operations. The contract structure enables the government to maintain consistent access to critical food safety analytical testing supplies while benefiting from pre-negotiated pricing with an established, certified small business supplier.
Under this parent contract, Communications Professionals Inc. executed seventeen delivery orders between March 2018 and November 2022, collectively valued at approximately $603,000, supporting laboratory operations at multiple geographic locations including St. Louis, Missouri; Athens, Georgia; Albany, California; and Troy, Michigan. Individual delivery orders ranged from approximately $13,000 to $67,000, with most structured as firm fixed-price procurements requiring delivery completion within three to twelve months of award. The delivery orders specified various Abraxis kit types, including E. coli testing kits and other food safety diagnostic products, with performance locations distributed across FSIS laboratory facilities nationwide. This sustained pattern of task orders demonstrates the contract's effectiveness as an indefinite delivery mechanism, allowing the Office of Administrative Services Procurement Management Branch to efficiently procure specialized testing supplies for ongoing laboratory analytical operations without conducting separate competitive solicitations for each incremental requirement.
