About this file

This document amends a previous combined solicitation for a laboratory storage system. The Department of Veterans Affairs is seeking proposals for a new storage system for its North Florida/South Georgia VA Medical Center facility located in Gainesville, Florida. The solicitation was amended to extend the response deadline to July 28, 2023 at 4:00 PM Eastern Time. The storage system must be able to hold a variety of laboratory items including reagent cubes, boxes, and equipment in both closed cabinets and open shelves. Minimum requirements were not specified but the system should not have handles or electronic moving parts and be adjustable to accommodate different sized items. VA engineering will remove the existing storage system, leaving an empty space for the new vendor installation.

i. Do you require open shelves or closed shelves like cabinets apart from the plexiglass storage of sterile items? A mixture of both is required. For Sterile Processing, they require shelves with closable doors of some type. The rest of the shelving will be open access, no doors, etc.
