NEW YORK BLOOD CENTER, INC

New York Blood Center, Inc. specializes in the collection, processing, storage, and distribution of blood products and transfusion services for federal healthcare systems. Their core capabilities encompass end-to-end blood bank operations, including plasma fractionation, red blood cell and platelet component preparation, pathogen reduction technologies, and just-in-time logistics for critical blood components. The organization demonstrates deep technical expertise in maintaining AABB and FDA-compliant blood safety protocols, implementing donor screening systems, and ensuring chain-of-custody integrity across decentralized supply chains. A key differentiator is their ability to support high-volume, mission-critical transfusion needs in VA medical facilities through integrated, regionally coordinated blood banking networks, with demonstrated operational presence at multiple VA medical centers in the Northeast. The contractor maintains a sustained and primary relationship with the Department of Veterans Affairs, providing essential blood products and transfusion services across its national healthcare network. Work includes supplying whole blood, packed red cells, cryoprecipitate, and platelets to VA hospitals and outpatient clinics, often under time-sensitive, 24/7 operational requirements. Their engagement with the Department of Health and Human Services reflects alignment with national public health blood supply initiatives, though VA remains their dominant federal partner. Their primary industry focus is on Blood and Organ Banks (NAICS 621991), where they function as a federally accredited blood services provider supporting military and veteran healthcare infrastructure. This vertical specialization positions them as a critical node in the U.S. government’s hemovigilance and blood security ecosystem, with an emphasis on readiness, traceability, and regulatory compliance. As a nonprofit entity based in New York, NY, New York Blood Center, Inc. operates as a non-certified, mission-driven organization with a regional footprint centered on the Northeast. While not holding formal government certifications such as 8(a) or HUBZone, their operational accreditation and long-standing role in federal blood supply chains establish them as a trusted, non-commercial provider within the government healthcare market.
