The Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration Veterans Integrated Service Network 19 awarded an indefinite delivery contract to P.d.s. Consultants, Inc. to support its vision care programs. Under the contract vehicle, seven delivery orders were issued for eyeglasses totaling approximately $3.2 million. Delivery orders were awarded on firm fixed price bases to provide prescription eyewear in New Jersey, Oklahoma, Utah, and at unspecified locations. Periods of performance ranged from approximately one year, with completion dates between May 2022-February 2028. No set-asides were used.
As the awarding agency, VHA aims to ensure eligible military veterans receive healthcare services through its integrated network of medical centers and clinics. The contracted eyeglasses will directly support VHA's mission by addressing the vision needs of veterans within VISN 19's service area. Delivery orders were likely issued against the indefinite delivery contract held by P.d.s. Consultants to procure prescription eyewear on an as-needed basis and replenish stock over multiple years. This allows VHA to consistently meet demand for vision services and care within its network through a prime vendor arrangement.
