This amendment to a previous combined solicitation seeks contractor support services for national biomedical engineering departments within the Department of Veterans Affairs. Key requirements include providing technical and professional support to VA medical centers, outpatient clinics, VISN offices, and the HTM Program Office to accomplish corrective and planned maintenance, professional biomedical engineering services, and project management work. Contractor resources may be required to perform routine operational tasks such as maintenance and patient safety recalls, as well as unexpected tasks including support related to the COVID-19 pandemic and operational readiness for IT deployments. When support services are needed at a specific VA facility, a local contracting officer representative will monitor onsite contractors. Offerors may need to execute a business associate agreement, while contractors will perform duties outlined in task orders rather than be supervised by VA employees. The response deadline is July 12, 2021 at 12:00pm Eastern Time for this solicitation issued under number 36C10X21R0036.
