About Quidel Corp

Quidel Corporation, headquartered in San Diego, California, is a manufacturer of medical diagnostics and supplies specializing in developing and producing medical testing technologies. Registered in SAM.gov since 2005, the company is a for-profit organization that serves as a prime contractor for federal agencies, with a significant focus on providing COVID-19 related testing solutions. The company has been a critical supplier of over-the-counter COVID-19 test kits, medical diagnostic equipment, and laboratory testing supplies to various federal agencies during the pandemic, demonstrating its expertise in rapid medical diagnostics and testing technologies.

Through federal contract awards, Quidel Corp has predominantly supplied COVID-19 related medical products, primarily over-the-counter test kits and diagnostic equipment, to multiple federal agencies. The Defense Logistics Agency Troop Support Medical has been the most significant contracting partner, awarding numerous delivery orders for COVID-19 test kits with total values ranging from small purchases of a few hundred dollars to multi-million dollar contracts. Other key federal agencies include the Department of Veterans Affairs, Indian Health Service, and the Office of the Assistant Secretary for Preparedness and Response. These contracts were consistently awarded without set-aside designations and typically involved fixed-price delivery orders or definitive contracts, supporting nationwide COVID-19 testing and screening efforts across military, veteran, and public health systems.

Regarding federal grant awards, Quidel Corp has limited documented grant activity, with one notable sub-grant award to the Executive Office of the Governor of Delaware. This specific grant supported SARS-CoV-2 screening testing services for Delaware's K-12 schools, including provision of rapid antigen tests for students, teachers, staff, and contractors. The grant also included provisions for securing staffing to support sample collection, testing, and result reporting, demonstrating Quidel's capability to support comprehensive COVID-19 testing infrastructure beyond simple product delivery.

Quidel Corp holds a significant single-award indefinite delivery contract with the Defense Logistics Agency Troop Support Medical, valued at $108 million, specifically for providing QuickVue At-Home Over-The-Counter COVID-19 test kits. This contract, active through November 2023, has already generated substantial delivery orders, including a $54 million order for supplying test kits. The contract enables Quidel to provide critical COVID-19 testing resources from its San Diego facilities, supporting continued screening and testing efforts across the Defense Logistics Agency's customer base. The contract represents a strategic partnership between Quidel and the federal government in addressing public health testing needs during the pandemic.
