The Ralph H. Johnson VA Medical Center, operated by the Veterans Integrated Service Network 7, awarded a $263,605 firm fixed-price purchase order to Winergy LLC, a Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business headquartered in Fort Wayne, Indiana, for pharmacy microbiological monitoring services. Under this contract, which runs through July 31, 2025, Winergy will provide quarterly air sampling and monthly surface sampling of cleanroom areas including two laminar airflow workbenches, one biological safety cabinet, two buffer rooms, and one anteroom in accordance with United States Pharmacopeia (USP) 797 standards. The services include developing a comprehensive sampling plan, analyzing samples in an American Industrial Hygiene Association (AIHA)-accredited laboratory, identifying microorganisms, and notifying the medical center of any out-of-specification results, with provisions for additional resampling as required to maintain pharmacy sterile compounding environment integrity.
Winergy LLC brings extensive expertise in environmental testing and certification services for federal healthcare facilities, with a demonstrated track record of providing critical safety and quality assurance services across multiple VA Veterans Integrated Service Networks and the Defense Health Agency. The company holds several significant indefinite delivery contracts and blanket purchase agreements valued in the millions of dollars, including a $3.8 million single-award indefinite delivery contract with VA VISN 5 for pharmacy sterile clean certification services and a $7.5 million blanket purchase agreement with the Defense Health Agency for biosafety cabinet equipment certification. This procurement was set aside for Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses, reflecting the Department of Veterans Affairs' commitment to supporting veteran-owned businesses while ensuring specialized technical expertise in maintaining healthcare facility compliance.
