The Department of Veterans Affairs Network Contracting Office 19 awarded a single-award Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) to Leica Microsystems Inc. to provide comprehensive immunohistochemical stainer reagent rental services for the Eastern Oklahoma VA Health Care System's Jack C.

The five-year, $600,400 Firm Fixed Price contract requires Leica Microsystems to supply all equipment, parts, service, and maintenance necessary for the immunohistochemical staining operations, including workstations, hard drives, replacement components, and routine shipping fees.

This procurement did not utilize any set-aside designations and was open to all qualified contractors. The original pre-solicitation notice indicates that the Department of Veterans Affairs is seeking a contractor to provide these comprehensive immunohistochemical reagent rental services to support the laboratory operations at the Jack C. Montgomery VA Medical Center. The contract falls under NAICS Code 334516 (Analytical Laboratory Instrument Manufacturing) and PSC 6640 (Laboratory Equipment and Supplies), highlighting the specialized nature of the required equipment and services. While specific award values are not disclosed, the comprehensive scope of the contract suggests a substantial investment in the VA's laboratory capabilities, both at the current Muskogee facility and the future Tulsa location.
