The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) Veterans Health Administration (VHA) Veterans Integrated Service Network 23 (VISN 23) awarded a $3.7 million, five-year indefinite delivery contract to Central McGowan Inc., a for-profit company, to provide bulk oxygen and associated equipment to VA medical facilities across multiple states. The contract facilitates VISN 23's annual or multi-year ordering of bulk oxygen through firm fixed-price delivery orders, ensuring a reliable supply of this critical medical gas to support veteran patient care programs at VA hospitals, medical centers, and healthcare systems in Minnesota, Iowa, Nebraska, and surrounding areas. Central McGowan is the sole prime contractor under this unrestricted contract, which does not contain any set-aside designations. The delivery orders issued to date, ranging from $14,000 to over $130,000 in value, provide firm fixed-price oxygen supplies to VA locations within the VISN 23 region, with periods of performance generally spanning one-year delivery cycles. The original pre-solicitation notice indicated the VA's intent to award this indefinite delivery contract for bulk oxygen as an unrestricted procurement to serve all VA healthcare facilities within VISN 23. The solicitation sought responses for a five-year IDIQ contract with federal fiscal year-based ordering periods to centralize the VHA's procurement of this vital medical gas across the integrated service network. The contracted bulk oxygen supports the VA's mission to provide quality healthcare services to veterans in the VISN 23 region.
