About the company

Gulf Coast Regional Blood Center, doing business as The Blood Center, is a Houston-based non-profit organization registered with the federal government since March 2004. As a manufacturer of goods and non-profit entity, the organization provides critical hematologic products and services to federal agencies, particularly the Department of Veterans Affairs. The Blood Center serves as a vital civilian vendor supplying blood products and related transfusion services essential to federal healthcare operations and emergency preparedness initiatives.

The Blood Center has secured federal contract awards through the Department of Veterans Affairs, specifically through Veterans Integrated Service Network 17 (VISN 17).

These contracts utilize firm fixed price pricing structures with no set-aside designations, ensuring cost certainty for the VA while providing reliable access to critical blood products and transfusion services for veterans receiving care within the VISN 17 network. The earlier delivery order contract is scheduled for completion on September 30, 2029, while the more recent award carries an ultimate completion date of September 30, 2026.

Gulf Coast Regional Blood Center holds an Indefinite Delivery Contract (IDC) awarded by the Department of Veterans Affairs, Veterans Integrated Service Network 17, effective October 1, 2024, through September 30, 2029.
