About the company
Lifesouth Community Blood Centers Inc., a nonprofit blood collection, processing, and distribution organization headquartered in Gainesville, Florida, supplies blood products and cord blood services to the federal government primarily as a prime contractor (99% of recent awards) under full-and-open procurement with no set-asides. The vendor operates across multiple blood-collection and processing facilities in Georgia and Alabama, delivering packed red blood cells, plasma, cord blood, and associated testing and screening services through firm fixed-price purchase orders, blanket purchase agreements, and indefinite delivery contracts.
The customer base concentrates heavily on the Department of Veterans Affairs and the Department of Health and Human Services. The VA accounts for 81 of 150 total awards in the source data; within that, Veterans Integrated Service Network 8 anchors the dollars with 13 awards valued at $22.2 million combined potential value, while Veterans Integrated Service Network 7 carries 20 awards at $7.3 million combined potential value. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention Pittsburgh ranks third with 6 awards at $231 thousand combined potential value, and the Health Resources and Services Administration headquarters accounts for 2 awards at $18 million combined potential value. The top five customer entities account for 81% of recent award volume. Recent contract work includes a $1.058 million five-year definitive contract with VA VISN 7 for blood and blood-related products awarded July 1, 2025 with completion through June 30, 2030; a $6.396 million purchase order from VA VISN 8 for blood and blood products, awarded October 1, 2023 with completion through September 30, 2028; and multiple BPA calls under a single-award CDC Pittsburgh BPA ($102,523 ceiling through August 3, 2028) for cord blood collection, processing, and testing services.
Lifesouth holds positions on five VA indefinite delivery contracts, with the top three vehicles—V573P6242, V573P6668, and VA24714D0252—carrying 18 combined task orders valued at $4.7 million. Activity over the past five years shows minimal award volume (one award in 2021, three in 2023, two each in 2024, 2025, and 2026), with two awards (combined potential value $5.2 million) facing completion within the next twenty-four months. SCI-reported invoiced revenue for prime contracts totaled $1.2 million across FY2022–FY2024, with $644 thousand in FY2022 and $534 thousand in FY2023 across roughly 34–36 federal service-delivery FTEs; no SCI-reportable invoicing appears in FY2024. Government-paid hourly rates on SCI-covered prime contracts ranged from a 10th percentile of $6.67 per hour to a 90th percentile of $43.80 per hour, with median rates at $7.14 per hour. Lifesouth performs its own delivery work with zero subcontractor hours share across SCI-reportable prime contracts. The vendor also acts as a sub-recipient on two federal grant awards, including a March 2026 subaward from Emory University for a red blood cell survival study in sickle cell disease.
