Community Blood Center

Community Blood Center, operating under the DBA Community Tissue Services, is a tax-exempt non-profit organization and manufacturer of medical goods headquartered in Dayton, Ohio. The organization specializes in blood and tissue donation, recovery, and distribution services to federal healthcare systems, with a particular focus on supporting the medical readiness and operational needs of military treatment facilities and the Department of Veterans Affairs.

Community Blood Center has secured a diverse portfolio of federal contract awards across multiple agencies, primarily the Defense Health Agency, Department of Veterans Affairs, and the Department of Health and Human Services. The organization provides specialized medical products including allograft human tissue, allograft skin tissue, cryopreserved skin, blood products for transfusion and diagnostic testing, and thermal burn allograft skin products. Notable awards include a $92,019,281 definitive contract from the HHS Office of the Assistant Secretary for Preparedness and Response for allograft skin thermal burn products through August 2029, and a $1,510,341.15 delivery order from the Veterans Integrated Service Network 10 for blood and blood products with a performance period extending through September 2026. Additional awards include multiple Defense Health Agency purchase orders and BPA calls valued between $17,791 and $650,000 for allograft tissue delivery to military medical facilities such as Fort Sam Houston and Brooke Army Medical Center, as well as Veterans Affairs delivery orders for blood products. All contract awards have been made without set-aside designations, reflecting competitive procurement processes. Community Blood Center has not served as a prime on any subcontracts, nor has it subcontracted work to other vendors on the contracts reviewed.
