About this IDV
Remel Inc., operating under the Thermo Fisher Scientific brand, was awarded a single-award Indefinite Delivery Contract valued at $450,000 by the Office of Administrative Services Procurement Management Branch on September 16, 2014, with performance extending through September 30, 2016. The contract procures antimicrobial susceptibility testing (AST) supplies and plates for use in the National Antimicrobial Resistance Monitoring System (NARMS) and the Eastern Laboratory. AST supplies are critical laboratory consumables used to determine the resistance patterns of bacterial pathogens to antimicrobial agents, supporting public health surveillance and food safety monitoring initiatives. No small business set-aside was utilized for this award, reflecting Remel's status as an established contractor. Performance locations included both Athens, Georgia and Lenexa, Kansas, with the bulk of delivery orders directed to the Athens facility supporting NARMS operations.
Eight delivery orders were issued under this IDV between September 2014 and June 2016, with individual task order values ranging from approximately $7,372 to $111,887, representing firm fixed-price procurement activities. Specific delivery orders provided NARMS supplies for defined quarterly and monthly periods, including AST supplies and plates designated for antimicrobial susceptibility testing operations. Remel's subsidiary status under Thermo Electron Corporation, combined with its specialization in microbiology laboratory products and diagnostic instrumentation, positioned the company as the sole source for these specialized testing materials. The contract structure enabled efficient task order issuance to meet the operational needs of federal antimicrobial resistance surveillance programs without requiring additional competitive solicitations throughout the period of performance.
