About this IDV
Thomas Horstemeyer, LLP was awarded multiple indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity (IDIQ) contracts under the National Institutes of Health (NIH) Patent Legal Services master agreement on April 20, 2020. The award encompasses patent-related legal services across multiple technology categories, with this specific IDIQ contract carrying a ceiling value of $17 million and a period of performance extending through April 19, 2027. The contractor provides patent prosecution, intellectual property support services, and related legal activities in the chemistry and software technology categories. These services support the NIH's biomedical research mission by enabling the agency and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention to issue task orders for patent-related activities across multiple institutes and centers nationwide. The contract utilizes no set-aside designations and was funded by the NIH Office of Logistics and Acquisition Operations, a civilian federal agency.
The original solicitation, posted November 15, 2018, sought multiple award IDIQ contracts to consolidate patent legal services under four technology categories: biotechnology, chemistry, mechanical engineering, and software. The solicitation emphasized the scope of work required contractors to manage over 2,500 active patent cases and file approximately 200-300 new applications annually across NIH's technology transfer centers nationwide. A sample task order issued March 9, 2021, valued at $11,328, was awarded to Thomas Horstemeyer, LLP by the National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute for filing a petition, affidavit, and payment of fees and annuities to reinstate a patent application, demonstrating the practical application of the master IDIQ framework for discrete patent legal services with firm fixed pricing and performance completion by January 7, 2023, in Atlanta, Georgia.
