The U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) Veterans Health Administration (VHA) awarded an indefinite delivery contract (IDC) valued up to $13.8 million to Abbott Ambulance, Inc. East Region Division to provide ambulance services to support the VA's Veterans Integrated Service Network 15 (VISN 15) healthcare programs for veterans in the St. Louis, Missouri area. This was originally anticipated as a set-aside for Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses (SDVOSBs), but was ultimately awarded to the prime contractor, Abbott Ambulance, Inc., due to inadequate SDVOSB responses. The IDC has a period of performance through September 2025, with subsequent firm fixed-price task orders issued to date totaling over $10 million. These task orders provide emergency and non-emergency medical transportation services to VA beneficiaries in the St. Louis region, aligning with the VA's mission to ensure timely access to quality healthcare for veterans.
The initial sources sought notice for this requirement indicated the VA was seeking a qualified contractor, potentially an SDVOSB, 8(a), HUBZone, or other small business, to provide ambulance services for VA beneficiaries in the St. Louis area. The VA anticipated a set-aside for SDVOSBs based on the Veterans Benefits Act, but ultimately made a single award to the for-profit contractor Abbott Ambulance, Inc. due to inadequate responses from eligible small businesses. The firm fixed-price task orders issued to date under this IDC support the VA's VISN 15 healthcare programs by delivering critical emergency and non-emergency medical transportation services to veterans in the St. Louis region.
