The University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) has been awarded an Indefinite Delivery Contract (IDC) from the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) to provide animal per diem services in support of VA medical research projects. The contract has a ceiling value of $261,694.92 and a period of performance through April 2027. Under this IDC, UCLA will supply the necessary housing and care for research animals, such as pigs, as required by the administering agency, the VA Veterans Health Administration. A recent delivery order was issued against this IDC in September 2023 for $56,251.80, covering the contracted animal per diem services to be performed at UCLA's facilities in Los Angeles through September 2024. As the sole contractor, UCLA will continue to support vital VA medical research through the provision of these animal services under the IDC vehicle. Additionally, UCLA has a history of serving as both a prime contractor and subcontractor for the U.S. federal government, providing a wide range of research, training, and program implementation services to agencies such as the Department of Health and Human Services, Department of Defense, NASA, and Department of Energy. These contract and grant awards have involved topics spanning scientific research, infrastructure development, behavioral health, medicine, public health, and education, leveraging the university's facilities, faculty expertise, and partnerships to advance national research priorities.
