About Center For Organ Recovery & Education
Center For Organ Recovery & Education, a Pittsburgh-based nonprofit organization, provides deceased donor organ procurement, testing, packaging, and transportation services exclusively to the Department of Veterans Affairs as a prime contractor under full-and-open delivery orders against single-award indefinite-delivery contracts, with no subcontract footprint and no SBA set-aside designations across its entire federal portfolio.
CORE operates as a tax-exempt corporate entity with a hyperconcentrated customer base: 162 of 175 total awards (93% by count, 98% by potential value) flow from Veterans Integrated Service Network 4, the VA's healthcare delivery system serving western Pennsylvania, eastern Ohio, and northern West Virginia. The vendor competes exclusively in full-and-open procurement channels with no set-aside activity. Its capability portfolio centers on organ procurement logistics, serological and molecular testing of deceased donors, organ packaging and preservation, and rapid transportation to VA transplant centers. Representative work includes a $2.86 million delivery order from VISN 4 awarded September 29, 2025, for comprehensive deceased donor organ services with economic price adjustment through September 28, 2026; a $1.76 million delivery order from the same customer dated September 29, 2025, for organ recovery and testing services through September 28, 2026; and a $10,300 firm-fixed-price delivery order awarded August 1, 2026, for organ donor blood testing at the VA Pittsburgh Healthcare System with performance through July 31, 2027.
CORE sits on five named parent IDIQs with VISN 4. The two highest-volume vehicles are Indefinite Delivery Contract VA24416D0085 (29 task orders, $13.6 million combined potential value) and Indefinite Delivery Contract 36C24420D0114 (20 task orders, $18.8 million combined potential value). A single-award IDIQ for organ donor blood testing services, awarded August 1, 2023, carries a ceiling of $51,500 and runs through July 31, 2028, with steady annual delivery orders of $5,150 to $10,300. A larger single-award IDIQ covers comprehensive deceased donor organ services with a $20.97 million ceiling. Recent activity is modest — one award in 2026, six in 2025 — and reflects the steady-state nature of recurring delivery orders against long-standing vehicle ceilings. Six awards valued at $4.7 million reach ultimate completion inside the next twenty-four months, creating modest recompete exposure as VISN 4 refreshes its task order cadence. The vendor's federal work is classified under NAICS 311991 (Blood and Organ Banks) and PSC 6520 (Medical-Surgery), with 135 awards mapped to blood and organ banking and 91 to medical-surgery procurement categories.
