About this vehicle
CDC Pittsburgh established a multiple-award master IDIQ on September 6, 2024, with a shared ceiling of $118 million to contract for diagnostic surge testing readiness and laboratory data sharing, with ordering authority extending through September 5, 2029. All 19 task orders awarded to date carry no set-aside designation and fund CDC Pittsburgh programs exclusively.
Ordering activity front-loaded heavily at vehicle launch: 13 orders awarded in the first three months of 2024, followed by 3 orders in 2025 and 3 in 2026 (most recent award May 3, 2026). Combined task-order potential value across all 19 awards stands at $81.9 million, with $22.8 million obligated to date—28 percent of combined potential. The vehicle retains three years of ordering authority remaining and approximately $37 million in unobligated combined potential value capacity.
Scope encompasses diagnostic testing, specimen collection, data sharing, and optional drug testing and annual data submission. Recent awards emphasize metagenomic next-generation sequencing (MNGS) capabilities, as reflected in three May 2026 orders to Ginkgo Bioworks focused on sequencing work. Earlier 2024 orders address H5N1 and H5 test development and test surge task orders. Pricing is predominantly firm fixed price with a smaller portion on time-and-materials basis.
Five prime contractors hold awards. Ginkgo Bioworks dominates by potential value, holding four orders worth $54.6 million combined (67 percent of vehicle potential value), though it received most recent work only in May 2026. Quest Diagnostics and Laboratory Corporation of America each hold four orders valued at $11.1 million and $7.1 million respectively. Arup Laboratories holds five orders worth $6.1 million, and Aegis Sciences holds two orders worth $3 million. No prime has won more than five orders.
Task-order ceilings range from roughly $41,000 to $50.2 million, with most awards in the $1–7 million band. Durations span from under one year to approximately five years, with performance completion dates extending into 2029.
