About the company

Caring Cross Inc., a tax-exempt nonprofit based in Gaithersburg, Maryland, operates exclusively as a subrecipient on federal biomedical research grants, with no prime contract or grant awards in the source data. The organization has received four federal grant sub-awards totaling $4.9 million obligated across the past three years, all routed through academic research institutions.

Caring Cross's federal footprint centers on HIV cure research. Three consecutive sub-awards from the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), passed through Albert Einstein College of Medicine in December 2023, August 2024, and August 2025, fund the development and evaluation of cell-specific lentivectors capable of selective in vivo generation of anti-HIV T cells. A fourth sub-award from the National Institute of Standards and Technology, passed through the University of Delaware in December 2023, supports the development of open-source lentiviral vector and adenoviral-associated viral vector manufacturing platforms. Combined, these awards reflect a sustained research-delivery role under the health and life sciences grant ecosystem rather than federal services contracting; the vendor operates as a research performer for NIH and NIST intramural or extramural grant programs rather than as a federal contractor.

Service Contract Inventory data captures one SCI record in FY2024 — Caring Cross appears as a named subcontractor on a single federal service contract with approximately 4.4 FTEs, indicating minimal SCI-reportable federal services activity. This is consistent with the vendor's nonprofit structure and core mission as a biomedical research organization. The organization does not appear on any federal procurement vehicles (GWACs, IDIQs, BPAs, or agency schedules) and has not competed for or held federal contracts as either prime or subcontractor. Federal engagement is limited to grant sub-recipient roles where the vendor contributes specialized research capabilities — vector development, manufacturing platform engineering, and cell-based HIV therapeutic evaluation — under the direction of prime-grant institutions. Concentration among federal agencies is limited: NIAID accounts for 75% of recent sub-awards by count, with NIST comprising the remainder.
