Arjo Inc., a leading supplier of durable medical equipment headquartered in Addison, Illinois, was awarded a $377,326.56 firm fixed-price purchase order by Veterans Integrated Service Network 1 (VISN 1) on September 24, 2021, to provide patient lift services for the Manchester VA Medical Center in Manchester, New Hampshire. The contract, which was not designated with any socioeconomic set-aside, supports the Department of Veterans Affairs' healthcare operations through the provision of preventative maintenance, inspection, and emergency repair services for 78 patient lift systems at the Manchester VAMC and its associated community-based outpatient clinics. The scope of work includes annual inspections, preventative maintenance visits three times per year, emergency repair response within four hours, supply of minor replacement parts up to $200 per lift annually, and cost estimates for identified repairs within 24 hours. The contract was awarded on a sole-source basis, recognizing Arjo Inc.'s position as the original equipment manufacturer with specialized expertise and proprietary parts availability necessary to safely maintain this critical medical equipment.

The award, with an ultimate completion date of September 23, 2022, aligns with Arjo Inc.'s extensive federal contracting history with the Department of Veterans Affairs and other healthcare agencies. The company maintains several significant Indefinite Delivery Vehicles with the VA, including a $36.16 million Federal Supply Schedule contract for medical equipment and supplies, which provides the framework for efficient procurement of specialized medical technologies across federal healthcare systems. This Manchester VAMC patient lift services contract represents a continuation of Arjo Inc.'s strategic role as a major provider of specialized medical equipment maintenance and support services to the U.S. government's healthcare operations.
