About this IDV
The Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Integrated Service Network 20 awarded a single-award indefinite delivery contract to Charles River Laboratories, Inc. for rodent health testing and monitoring services, with a ceiling of $590,000 and an award date of September 1, 2025.
The procurement carries no set-aside designation. Work is performed at Charles River's facility in Wilmington, Massachusetts. The contract supports the Rodent Health Surveillance Monitoring Program at the VA Portland Health Care System's Veterinary Medical Unit, covering quarterly testing and monitoring services for research colonies of mice, rats, and prairie voles. Services include PRIA testing, serological and PCR testing for viral, bacterial, and parasitic diseases, along with pathologist consultation and sample submission supplies.
The contract period runs from September 1, 2025, through August 31, 2030. NAICS code 541380 (Testing Laboratories and Services) applies. The sole-source justification rests on operational continuity: the rodent colonies were originally procured from Charles River under an existing BPA, and vendor switching would pose higher risks for study compromise. Additionally, Charles River serves as the testing laboratory for VA Portland's academic affiliate, Oregon Health & Science University, making consistent vendor utilization essential for expedited transfers and comparable test results.
A firm fixed price delivery order valued at $80,000 was issued on September 9, 2025, with an ultimate completion date of August 31, 2026, reflecting task-order activity under this IDIQ.
