About the company
Center For Organ Recovery & Education (CORE), a Pittsburgh-based nonprofit organization, provides deceased donor organ procurement, testing, packaging, and transportation services to the Department of Veterans Affairs as a prime contractor, competing under full-and-open (non-set-aside) federal procurement.
CORE operates exclusively under a single customer agency. The Department of Veterans Affairs, Veterans Health Administration, Veterans Integrated Service Network 4 (VISN 4) accounts for 166 awards with $118.7 million in combined potential value, representing 93% of total awards and 98% of combined potential value across the vendor's federal footprint. The VISN 4 region covers western Pennsylvania, eastern Ohio, and northern West Virginia. All work is performed in Pittsburgh and Aspinwall, Pennsylvania.
CORE holds two primary single-award IDIQs with VISN 4. The most recent, awarded September 29, 2026, carries a $26.46 million ceiling and runs through September 28, 2031, supporting organ procurement organization donor organ acquisition services. An earlier IDIQ awarded August 1, 2023, with a $51,500 ceiling through July 31, 2028, funds organ donor blood testing services at the VA Pittsburgh Healthcare System. Task orders placed against these vehicles span two years. Representative recent delivery orders include a $2.86 million fixed-price-with-economic-price-adjustment order awarded September 29, 2026, for organ procurement organization donor organ acquisition services with performance through September 28, 2027; a $1.79 million order awarded September 30, 2024, for deceased donor organ services through September 28, 2025; and a $10,300 order awarded August 1, 2026, for organ donor blood testing through July 31, 2027.
CORE's award portfolio shows modest year-on-year activity: four to six awards annually in the past five years, with the most recent cycle in 2026. Four awards carrying combined potential value of $5 million reach completion within the next twenty-four months and will require recompete action. The vendor's service-contract footprint, captured in the Service Contract Inventory database, recorded $2.8 million in invoiced revenue in FY2025 across SCI-reportable prime contracts above the $150,000 threshold; SCI data does not reflect FTE-level detail and covers only a portion of CORE's total federal services activity. CORE operates as a 100% prime contractor with no subcontractor relationships reported across its recent award history. Categorically, the vendor's work concentrates under NAICS 311991 (Blood and Organ Banks) for 139 of its awards, with secondary activity under NAICS for surgical appliances and medical laboratory services; PSC coding reflects medical-surgery and surgical instruments and supplies classifications.
