About this IDV
The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA), Network Contracting Office (NCO) 21, has awarded a sole-source Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) contract to Courier Corporation of Hawaii (CCH) under GSA Contract #GS-33F-018BA. The contract is for $678,300.00 ceiling value and provides laboratory courier services to the VA Pacific Islands Healthcare System (VAPIHCS) across all Hawaiian Islands. The services include door-to-door pick-up and delivery of cooler shipments of patient samples from VAPIHCS outpatient clinics to the centralized testing lab in Honolulu on a specific schedule. CCH, a veteran-owned minority small disadvantaged business, is the only vendor located in Hawaii and capable of providing these services on the GSA schedule. The contract has a base period of one year with two one-year option periods. This sole-source award was made in accordance with FAR 8.405-6, as market research indicated CCH is the only qualified vendor that can meet the VAPIHCS's time-sensitive requirements for sample transport and delivery.
The original solicitation was issued as a Special Notice, indicating the VA's intent to award a sole-source task order to CCH. The purpose was to provide an opportunity for other vendors to demonstrate that competition would be advantageous, but no compelling cases were made. The contracted services are critical to supporting the VA's mission of providing medical care to veterans in the Hawaii region, as the timely transportation and delivery of patient samples is essential for laboratory testing and analysis.
