About this IDV

The National Institutes of Health, Office of Logistics and Acquisition Operations, awarded a multiple-award indefinite-delivery contract to Leydig, Voit & Mayer, LTD. on April 20, 2020, with a $115 million ceiling for patent legal services in chemistry through April 19, 2027. This is one of four technology-category IDIQs (biotechnology, chemistry, mechanical engineering, and software) under the broader NIH Patent Legal Services vehicle, which carries combined ceiling values of $552 million across all categories.

Place of performance is primarily Chicago, Illinois, with recent task orders also issued to Bethesda, Maryland and Alexandria, Virginia locations. The solicitation sought patent-related legal services including patent prosecution, preparation and filing of patent applications (provisional, national stage, and Patent Cooperation Treaty), prior art searches, conflict-of-interest checks, and general intellectual property counsel to support NIH's extensive portfolio of nearly 2,500 active patent cases and 200–300 new applications filed annually.

Recent task-order activity includes a time-and-materials order for patent legal services for chemistry issued by the National Cancer Institute on June 4, 2024, with a ceiling of $1.377 million through June 3, 2027; a similar time-and-materials order from the National Cancer Institute dated June 29, 2021, valued at $1.064 million through June 28, 2024; and numerous firm-fixed-price delivery orders issued by the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases, National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute, National Center for Advancing Translational Sciences, and National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke ranging from $8,131.75 to $19,955. Task orders span patent application preparation, filing, and prosecution across domestic and international jurisdictions. NAICS code 541110 and PSC code R425 apply.
