This is a $268,888.00 firm-fixed-price purchase order awarded by the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) to 1ST American Medical Distributors, Inc., a self-certified small disadvantaged, veteran-owned, and service-disabled veteran-owned business. The contract is for the delivery of washer disinfectors and related equipment to replace aging equipment at the Central Arkansas Veterans Healthcare System in Little Rock.
The original solicitation, issued under Simplified Acquisition Procedures, sought quotes from authorized Steris resellers to provide washer disinfectors compatible with the VA's existing Steris equipment. There was no set-aside designation. 1ST American Medical Distributors holds several key indefinite-delivery vehicles with the VA, including a $62 million Federal Supply Schedule contract and medical supply Blanket Purchase Agreements, which enable streamlined procurement of medical equipment and supplies for VA facilities nationwide.
