Product Service Code 6509 covers Drugs and Biologicals for Veterinary Use, encompassing a wide range of pharmaceutical products and medical supplies specifically designed for animal healthcare. These products include veterinary vaccines, injectable solutions, medications, euthanasia solutions, and specialized biological research materials. The category supports various federal agencies' animal health, research, and disease prevention initiatives across multiple sectors including agricultural, medical research, and military applications.

Federal Contract Awards in this category demonstrate significant diversity, with contract values ranging from under $100 to over $3 million. Key funding agencies include the Department of Agriculture's Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS), National Institutes of Health (NIH), Defense Logistics Agency (DLA), and Department of Veterans Affairs. Frequent contractors include Covetrus North America, Charles River Laboratories, and Zoetis Inc. Most awards are firm fixed-price purchase orders or delivery orders, with performance periods typically spanning several months to a year. While many awards have no specific set-aside, some utilize total small business set-aside designations, particularly for pharmaceutical and biological product manufacturing.

Recent federal contract opportunities in this PSC category include solicitations for specialized veterinary pharmaceuticals and research materials.
