About this IDV
The Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Integrated Service Network 20 awarded an indefinite-delivery contract to Quest Diagnostics Incorporated on March 1, 2026, for reference laboratory testing services supporting the VA Boise Health Care System, with a contract ceiling of $7.5 million and an ultimate completion date of February 28, 2031. This is a single-award contract with no set-aside designation.
Performance occurs in Boise, Idaho. The solicitation requested comprehensive reference laboratory testing including preanalytic processing, analysis, and clinical interpretation across referral testing capabilities such as drug monitoring, infectious disease screening, immunology, genetic analyses, toxicology screens, and specialized molecular diagnostics. The test menu includes over 400 individual tests. The laboratory must maintain electronic data interface compatibility with the VA's VISTA and Cerner systems with HIPAA-compliant encryption and provide courier services for specimen transport.
The period of performance runs five one-year ordering periods from March 1, 2026, through February 28, 2031. The contract carries a minimum guarantee of $1,000. Evaluation was weighted toward technical factors—including analytical testing capabilities, licensure, turnaround time, electronic interface compatibility, STAT testing capability, and on-site training—and past performance, with price weighted less heavily.
A $1.5 million delivery order was issued under this IDIQ on March 1, 2026, to the VA Boise Health Care System for reference laboratory testing services through February 28, 2027. The delivery order is firm fixed-price with no set-aside designation.
