AI Contract Overview

The National Institutes of Health plans to award a one-year, firm-fixed-price sole source contract to QuVa Pharma, Inc. for the purchase of 503b-compounded intravenous narcotics essential for patient care at the NIH Clinical Center in Bethesda, Maryland. Market research identified QuVa Pharma as the only U.S. manufacturer and distributor of these specialized IV narcotics, with no alternative suppliers capable of meeting the clinical requirements, justifying a non-competitive acquisition under FAR 6.302-1. This action is conducted under Simplified Acquisition Procedures (FAR Part 13), which exempts it from full and open competition requirements due to the uniqueness of the product and the limited market. The total estimated value of the contract is $684,000 over five years, including one base year valued at $110,000 and four optional years. Delivery and performance are required exclusively at the NIH Clinical Center, with inspection and acceptance managed by the government’s Contracting Officer’s Representative. The contract relies on QuVa Pharma’s FDA-registered 503b compounding status to ensure compliance with federal pharmaceutical standards, though detailed packaging, labeling, preservation, or inspection protocols are not specified in the documentation. No solicitation will be issued, and no formal competitive evaluation factors, pricing breakdowns, or clause attachments are required or provided beyond the statutory justification for sole source procurement. Public comments on the intent to award are being accepted until May 6, 2026, but the government retains sole discretion to proceed without competition.
