About this IDV
McCoy Russell LLP, a woman-owned small business intellectual property law firm based in Portland, Oregon, was awarded a $17 million indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity contract by the National Institutes of Health (NIH) on April 20, 2020, to provide patent legal services across chemistry and mechanical engineering technology categories. The contract, designated as the NIH Patent Legal Services IDIQ, extends through April 19, 2027, and supports the intellectual property needs of multiple NIH institutes and centers, including the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute, the National Institute of Mental Health, and the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke. The original solicitation, posted in November 2018, sought multiple indefinite delivery contracts to centralize patent-related legal services across four technology categories with a combined ten-year ceiling exceeding $520 million, requiring contractors to manage over 2,500 active patent cases and file approximately 200-300 new applications annually. No set-aside designation was applied to this award, which falls under NAICS code 541110 for legal services and PSC code R425 for patent legal services.
Delivery orders issued under this master contract demonstrate the scope of services provided, including patent preparation, prosecution, and filing across domestic and international jurisdictions. Specific tasks executed include drafting and filing Patent Cooperation Treaty applications, preparing provisional patent applications, filing national stage patent applications, responding to oral summons for European patent applications, preparing divisional patent applications, and performing conflict of interest checks. Delivery orders range from approximately $3,300 to $18,000, with recent awards in late 2025 totaling approximately $25,224 for two separate Patent Cooperation Treaty filings with completion dates in November 2026. Performance locations are primarily in Portland, Oregon 97205, with occasional work in Bethesda, Maryland. The contract serves as the parent vehicle for task orders supporting the technology transfer and intellectual property protection objectives of NIH's research and development mission, enabling federal agencies to secure patent protection for federally-funded research innovations across biotechnology, chemistry, mechanical engineering, and software technology domains.
