This is a firm-fixed-price purchase order contract awarded by the Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration Veterans Integrated Service Network 8 (VA VHA VISN 8) to Evident Scientific, Inc., a for-profit manufacturer of specialized microscopy systems, for Confocal Microscope Maintenance services. The contract has a ceiling value of $17,418.16 and a performance period through June 30, 2025.

The procurement was sole-sourced to Evident Scientific as the only authorized dealer capable of servicing the specific confocal microscope equipment used by the VA. The contract covers scheduled maintenance, repairs, and software updates, including preventative maintenance, labor, travel, expenses, and replacement parts. This contract is not set aside and was likely awarded under the authority of FAR 13.106-1(b)(1) for sole source procurements.
