About this opportunity
The Defense Health Agency has awarded contract GS07F0446V to Roche Diagnostics Corporation on a sole-source basis for BenchMark ULTRA PLUS immunohistochemistry staining systems and reagents under a Federal Supply Schedule task order, with an award date of July 1, 2026.
The justification cites 41 U.S.C. 3304(a)(1), based on the supplies being unique and highly specialized. Market research conducted between March 18 and April 2, 2026 confirmed that Roche Diagnostics is the sole source capable of meeting all mandatory technical requirements; the BenchMark Ultra Plus system is proprietary with no compatible alternatives. The 96th Medical Group at Eglin Air Force Base requires a fully automated immunohistochemistry stainer for tissue section staining to support pathology department operations. Mandatory requirements include full automation with minimal manual intervention, simultaneous processing of a minimum of thirty slides, support for continuous loading and multiple protocols, and minimal daily maintenance.
The period of performance runs from July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2031. The contract is structured as Firm Fixed Price. Place of performance is Eglin Air Force Base's 96th Medical Group. The Defense Health Agency's Healthcare Contracting Division-South is administering the award and intends to post a notice of intent on SAM.gov to encourage small business participation. The agency plans continued market research to support future full and open competition if requirements evolve.
