Pharmaceutical Services for ASVH's

The Arizona Department of Veterans' Services Master Agreement CTR061131 is a comprehensive Indefinite Delivery Vehicle (IDV) for pharmaceutical services designed to support Arizona State Veterans' Homes. The contract provides a robust framework for procuring pharmaceutical products, medication management, and related services, including 24/7 pharmacy availability, medication formulary management, equipment provisions such as feeding and IV pumps, medication recall procedures, and emergency preparedness plans. This IDV enables efficient and specialized pharmaceutical support for veterans' healthcare facilities across Arizona.

The master agreement was awarded to Guardian Pharmacy of Arizona LLC (doing business as Saliba's Extended Care Pharmacy) on July 7, 2022, with an initial contract period from August 1, 2022, through July 3, 2026. The contract covers statewide pharmaceutical services for Arizona State Veterans' Homes, including the Arizona Pioneers' Home, and has been subject to multiple amendments extending its performance period. While a specific total contract value was not explicitly stated, a cooperative purchase authorization document estimated a maximum spend of $400,000. The contract was competitively awarded following an evaluation process that assessed vendors on experience, capacity, proposed approach, and pricing, with Guardian Pharmacy ultimately selected as the most advantageous offeror.
