About the company

Cancer Diagnostics, Inc., a for-profit manufacturer of anatomic pathology and histology products based in Durham, North Carolina, supplies specialized laboratory equipment and reagents to federal health agencies exclusively as a prime contractor operating in full-and-open competition with no set-aside designations.

The vendor's federal footprint centers on a narrow customer base. The Defense Health Agency accounts for 6 awards totaling $8.6 million in combined potential value — roughly 99% of the vendor's recent federal dollars — with the remaining activity split among the National Cancer Institute ($90 thousand), the Veterans Health Administration (two separate regional networks accounting for $19 thousand combined), and the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases ($5 thousand). The Defense Health Agency relationship runs primarily through a single BPA (HT001418A0019) with five task orders valued at $558 thousand combined. Cancer Diagnostics' work under DHA supports the anatomic pathology lab at Walter Reed Medical Center, supplying Auto Frost IHC microscope slides, tissue marking dyes, and related gross specimen processing materials. Recent representative awards include a $90 thousand firm-fixed-price purchase order from the National Cancer Institute for a TintoStainer Plus Automated IHC Stainer with 30-slide capacity (September 2026, performance through Durham), a $102.4 thousand DHA BPA call for tissue marking dye and microscope slides (January 2023, delivery through September 2023), and a $101 thousand DHA BPA call for Auto Frost IHC slides and specimen processing materials supporting Walter Reed (December 2021 through December 2022).

Activity is sparse and episodic — one award per year in 2019, 2020, and 2021, then no recorded federal awards in 2022 and 2024, followed by one award each in 2023 and 2026. Combined potential value across 43 historical awards stands at $8.7 million, with only $679 thousand obligated to date (8% of potential). One award ($90 thousand NCI purchase order) reaches ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months and faces potential recompete. Cancer Diagnostics operates as a 100% prime vendor with no subcontract footprint.
