This document is a Request for Information (RFI) issued by the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) for prescription eyeglasses manufacturing across VA medical centers nationwide. The RFI seeks to gather market research and industry information about potential suppliers of prescription dress and safety eyeglasses for veterans, with a focus on determining supplier capabilities, socioeconomic classifications, and interest in future solicitations. The opportunity uses NAICS code 339115 and Product Service Code 6540, and is specifically looking to identify manufacturers or suppliers of ophthalmic goods.

Key submission details include a response deadline of April 10, 2025 at 4:30 PM Eastern Time, with responses to be emailed to Jeremy Boston (jeremy.boston@va.gov). A virtual Industry Day is scheduled for April 2, 2025 at 10:00 AM EST, and interested parties must request an invitation via email. Respondents are asked to provide company information, DUNS and UEI numbers, small business program eligibility, and confirm whether they are a manufacturer. The RFI emphasizes that this is a market research exercise only, with no guarantee of future solicitation or contract award, and respondents should not include proprietary or sensitive information in their submissions.
