VISN 19 Durable Medical Equipment 2016-2021

The Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration Veterans Integrated Service Network 19 awarded a Master IDIQ on October 1, 2016, for durable medical equipment supply and delivery services to VISN 19 facilities, with the final ordering date of September 30, 2021 now closed for nearly five years.

The vehicle is no longer active for new orders. Only one delivery order was issued under the Master IDIQ, a June 7, 2018 award to Medical Equipment & Supplies Of America LLC valued at $31,901.16 for durable medical equipment services, with an ultimate completion date of June 30, 2018. The combined potential value across the vehicle's entire lifecycle was $32 thousand, fully obligated. This minimal ordering activity—a single, small-dollar order placed early in the vehicle's operational window—indicates the Master IDIQ either did not achieve anticipated utilization or was superseded by alternative procurement channels within VISN 19.

The sole awarded task order was issued as unrestricted (no set-aside designation). Medical Equipment & Supplies Of America LLC holds 100 percent of awarded orders by both count and potential value. All ordering activity funded VISN 19 directly, with no multi-agency utilization.

Contractors seeking DME business within VISN 19 should not pursue this vehicle; it has been closed to new orders since September 30, 2021. Current and prospective DME vendors should investigate whether VISN 19 has established successor contracts, alternative IDIQ vehicles, or GSA Federal Supply Schedule (FSS) arrangements for ongoing durable medical equipment procurement.

Contractor to store and deliver assigned durable medical equipment to include supplies, materials, equipment, transportation of equipment, equipment services, labor, supervision, patient education, safety management, infection control, as necessary for veterans.
