About this IDV
The Department of Veterans Affairs' Veterans Integrated Service Network 17 awarded a single-award indefinite delivery contract to Cepheid for $6,741,574.26 with an ultimate completion date of December 28, 2029, on December 22, 2025. The contract was issued as a sole source procurement because Cepheid is the only vendor capable of providing GeneXpert system-compatible cartridges. Work is performed at Cepheid's headquarters in Sunnyvale, California.
The procurement supplies diagnostic reagents and test kits for VISN 17's clinical laboratory operations and infectious disease testing requirements across its distributed network of VA medical centers, specifically XPRS4PLEX-10 and XPRS-COV2-10 cartridges for detecting respiratory pathogens including influenza A, influenza B, respiratory syncytial virus, and SARS-CoV-2. The contract operates on a demand-driven basis with no fixed delivery schedule; VISN 17 places orders via telephone with same-day confirmations and next-day delivery expected. Cepheid absorbs delivery costs and provides testing educational materials and procedures at no additional cost. The vendor must maintain consistent reagent lot sequencing throughout each contract year and comply with CLIA, FDA, and CAP requirements.
The contract is structured as firm fixed-price with five ordering periods. On December 22, 2025, VISN 17 issued the first delivery order valued at $1,564,125.00 with an ultimate completion date of December 21, 2026, for the initial ordering period. NAICS code 325413 (In-Vitro Diagnostic Substance Manufacturing) and PSC code 6550 (In Vitro Diagnostic Substances, Reagents, Test Kits and Sets) apply.
