About this IDV
Thomas Horstemeyer, LLP, a small disadvantaged business law firm specializing in intellectual property, was awarded a multiple-award indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity contract by the National Institutes of Health (NIH) Office of Logistics and Acquisition Operations to provide patent legal services in the chemistry technology category. The contract carries a ceiling value of $115 million with a period of performance extending from April 20, 2020, through April 19, 2027, encompassing a one-year base period and up to nine option years. The firm will perform work in Atlanta, Georgia, and deliver patent-related legal services supporting biomedical research conducted across NIH institutes, centers, and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention nationwide.
The scope of work includes patent prosecution, intellectual property support services, and related legal activities necessary to manage the government's extensive patent portfolio. The firm is expected to handle a substantial caseload exceeding 2,500 active patent matters and file approximately 200 to 300 new patent applications annually across NIH's nine technology transfer centers and other federal agencies. The solicitation, posted in November 2018 and awarded in April 2020, sought multiple contractors across four technology categories (biotechnology, chemistry, mechanical engineering, and software) with a combined ceiling exceeding $520 million over the ten-year ordering period. Task orders issued under this master IDIQ contract enable the NIH and Centers for Disease Control and Prevention to procure specific patent legal services on an as-needed basis to support the government's ongoing biomedical research initiatives and intellectual property protection objectives.
