The Basic Ordering Agreement is a single award contract with the Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration Veterans Integrated Service Network 7. The agreement facilitates consignment of Abbott stents, with a potential value of $363,355. Abbott Laboratories, through its division Abbott Vascular Inc., is the prime contractor.
The contract provides for consignment of various cardiovascular stents to support treatment of veterans. As the parent company of Abbott Vascular, Abbott Laboratories maintains stents and related products at VA medical centers on consignment under this Indefinite Delivery Vehicle. Individual task orders against the BOA allow facilities to draw down the stents as needed to furnish veterans' care, without having large inventories taking up space. The stents remain the property of Abbott until used, at which point the VA pays the pre-negotiated prices. This agreement aims to ensure veterans seamlessly receive needed cardiac devices, while optimizing inventory management for the agency.
