About this IDV

The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration awarded a single-award IDIQ to Icatch, Inc. on September 30, 2026, to research, develop, and field-deploy rapid, genetic-based test kits for accurately identifying imported seafood species, with a contract ceiling of $4.9 million. This is a total small business set-aside.

Work is performed at the contractor's facility. The IDIQ was issued under a solicitation requiring development of CRISPR or similar rapid genetic identification platforms producing visually interpretable colorimetric results within approximately 30 minutes, shelf-stable at ambient temperature for a minimum of three months, requiring no specialized equipment or refrigeration. Initial development covers Pacific white shrimp and four tuna species: Atlantic bluefin, bigeye, yellowfin, and either Pacific bluefin or albacore.

The contract runs from September 18, 2026, through September 29, 2031, with an optional extension of up to six months. Performance is structured in three stages: sequence analysis within nine months, assay development within six months, and field optimization and production within nine months, initially yielding 1,000 test strips and a minimum of 12 multi-use field kits. Optional species work and full-scale production phases run through September 29, 2030, and September 29, 2033, respectively, with minimum annual orders of 2,000 strips. Field demonstrations are required at Newark, New Jersey and Long Beach, California ports.

The NAICS code is 541715 (Research and Development in Physical, Engineering, and Life Sciences). Amendment 0001, effective August 19, 2026, incorporated FAR 52.227-14 Rights in Data and revised intellectual property provisions.
