Purchase Order 36C24624P1320

This federal contract award, valued at $1,156,924.42, was issued by the Veterans Integrated Service Network 6 (VISN 6) of the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) to San-I-Pak Pacific, Inc., a small business manufacturer of regulated medical waste management equipment. The contract is for the provision of a 341-liter autoclave sterilizer system, including a steam sterilizer and trash compactor, along with associated delivery, installation, and warranty services. This requirement stems from a pre-solicitation notice seeking contractors capable of providing an autoclave system capable of processing 230 pounds of biohazardous waste per hour in 45-minute cycles for the Hunter Holmes McGuire VA Medical Center in Richmond, Virginia. While the original pre-solicitation did not include a set-aside, this specific contract award has been designated as a total small business set-aside. San-I-Pak Pacific holds a significant $57 million indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity (IDIQ) contract with the VA for regulated medical waste equipment and services, under which this order has likely been placed.
