About this opportunity
This Award Notice from the Department of Health and Human Services announces a contract awarded to Siemens Healthcare Diagnostics Inc. on September 17, 2020 for $13 million. The contract is to develop a SARS-CoV-2 antibody assay to support the ongoing U.S. public health response efforts to mitigate sustained spread of COVID-19. A class justification and approval document allows HHS flexibility to procure critically needed supplies and services on an emergency basis, such as this antibody assay development, for up to 12 months to address the urgent public health needs arising from the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.
Notice text
This justification for unusual and compelling urgency is due to the public health emergency caused by COVID-19, which was declared a global pandemic by the WHO. The first confirmed case of COVID-19 in the United States was announced on January 21, 2020 and a national emergency was declared via Presidential Proclamation on March 13, 2020. The ultimate spread, length of time, and severity of the COVID-19 outbreak is unknown as this time and current data indicate that COVID-19 has begun to spread exponentially, in the typical pattern for an epidemic.. The goal of the ongoing U.S. public health response is to respond to and mitigate sustained spread of COVID-19 in this country.
Awarded contract 75A50120P00102 to Siemens Healthcare Diagnostics Inc. for 13000000.00 on 2020-09-17.
