The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) awarded an Indefinite Delivery, Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) multiple award contract worth up to $2 billion to provide COVID-19 testing solutions, including molecular, antigen, and antibody test kits as well as managed testing services. The prime contractor, Virant Diagnostics, Inc., is a minority-owned, self-certified small disadvantaged business located in Wheaton, Maryland.
Under this IDIQ contract, DHS has issued two firm-fixed-price delivery orders to Virant Diagnostics. The first, worth $280, was awarded in November 2020 by the DHS Countering Weapons of Mass Destruction office for testing services through May 2021. The second, valued at $8.14 million, was awarded in February 2022 by DHS Customs and Border Protection for COVID-19 testing solutions through September 2022. Both orders were issued without any set-aside designations. The contracted services include sample collection, transportation, testing methodologies, data management, and rapid results reporting to support DHS personnel and detainee populations across the country.
