The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) National Institutes of Health (NIH) has awarded a $99 million Indefinite Delivery Contract (IDC) for Laboratory Animal Procurement to Taconic Biosciences, Inc. This multiple award IDC enables NIH institutes, centers, and other federal health organizations to efficiently order a range of laboratory animals, including custom-engineered transgenic rodent models, to support their biomedical research objectives. Under this IDC, Taconic Biosciences serves as the prime contractor and has received several firm fixed price delivery orders from the NIH National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) to provide specialized laboratory animals such as humanized mice engrafted with cord blood stem cells, barrier-reared rodents, and transgenic mouse models. These deliveries, valued up to $51,357, support NIAID's research efforts on infectious diseases and the human immune system. The IDC does not have any set-aside designations, as Taconic's expertise in genetically engineered rodents has made the company an invaluable research partner to federal health agencies.
