About this vehicle
USDA APHIS Veterinary Services awarded a Master IDIQ for AIN RFID cattle tags to support the Animal Disease Traceability Program, with ordering closed as of July 19, 2025. The vehicle is no longer available for new task orders.
The vehicle was established July 20, 2020, with a shared ceiling of $44.9 million. All 22 task orders awarded through July 15, 2025 have fully obligated the combined potential value of $47.2 million, exceeding the original shared ceiling. Ordering activity averaged 3.2 orders per year over the five-year span, with momentum declining from four orders annually in 2021–2022 to two orders in 2025 before the ordering window closed.
The scope is narrow and specialized: all awarded task orders procure half-duplex, 840 Animal Identification Number (AIN) compliant, low-frequency RFID button ear tags in white, orange, or mixed colors, with some orders including associated applicators. Task-order values ranged from roughly $127,000 to $5.7 million, with the largest single order awarded July 15, 2025 to Datamars Inc. for $5.7 million.
Competition among primes is tightly concentrated. Allflex USA LLC and Datamars Inc. hold nearly equal shares of the vehicle's value—$23.1 million and $22.3 million respectively—across 8 and 10 orders. Y-Tex Corporation captured the remaining $1.8 million across four orders. All task orders are unrestricted, non-set-aside procurements awarded on a firm fixed-price basis. Customer concentration is absolute: USDA APHIS Veterinary Services issued all 22 orders, making this a single-agency vehicle with no secondary customer base. Place of performance is nationwide, supporting state animal disease traceability programs.
With the ordering period closed and combined potential value fully obligated, this vehicle offers no further pursuit opportunity.
