About this file
This is an amendment to a previous combined solicitation for the procurement of a Philips Neximer Laser System, an image-guided excimer laser used in interventional cardiology to treat coronary and peripheral vascular problems. The Department of Veterans Affairs Network Contracting Office 8 (NCO 8) issued this solicitation on behalf of James A Haley Veterans Hospital in Tampa, Florida (JAHVH). The solicitation number is 36C24826Q1018, with responses due by 08-06-2026 at 12:00 PM Eastern Time. The product service code is 6515, and the NAICS code has been revised to 334510 (Electromedical and Electrotherapeutic Apparatus Manufacturing). This procurement is set-aside for Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses (SDVOSB), with the SBA Nonmanufacturer Rule Class Waiver applying, permitting SDVOSB offerors to furnish products manufactured by entities other than small business concerns.
The amendment addresses five key questions from potential offerors regarding compliance requirements and solicitation clarifications. The requirement is brand-name only for the Philips Neximer Laser System (specifically the Philips LAS-100), with no equal products considered. Offerors must complete and submit SF 1449 forms including Sections B.1, B.2, and the Limitations on Subcontracting Certificate in Section C.7. Award will be made using a Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA) evaluation methodology to the responsible offeror whose offer is most advantageous to the Government. The contracting officer is Katrina Tavares (katrina.tavares@va.gov, 813-729-3586), located at 8875 Hidden River Parkway, Suite 160A, Tampa, FL 33637. Questions must be submitted no later than 08-03-2026 at 2:00 PM.

DESCRIPTION
Amendment Notice Purpose of the Amendment The amendment to this solicitation is issued to address the following questions. This section outlines the specific concerns raised and provides clarification or responses as needed to ensure transparency and understanding regarding the solicitation process.
Q. The solicitation includes VAAR 852.219-76 and requires an SDVOSB nonmanufacturer to supply the product of a domestic small-business manufacturer or processor unless an SBA Nonmanufacturer Rule waiver applies. Please confirm whether a class or individual Nonmanufacturer Rule waiver applies to this procurement. If no waiver applies, please confirm how an SDVOSB nonmanufacturer may comply when offering the specified Philips Neximer Laser System.
A. The applicable NAICS code is hereby changed to 334510 (Electromedical and Electrotherapeutic Apparatus Manufacturing). In accordance with the Small Business Administration's Nonmanufacturer Rule Class Waiver for NAICS 334510, SDVOSB offerors are permitted to furnish products manufactured by other than small business concerns.
Q. The SF 1449 and quote instructions describe the requirement as “brand name or equal,” while the Statement of Need identifies the Philips LAS-100 Neximer Laser System as “brand name.” Please confirm whether equal products will be considered or whether this is a brand-name-only requirement.
A. The solicitation is revised to correct language in the Statement of Need (SON). This is a brand-name only requirement.
Q. The quote instructions state that the Limitations on Subcontracting document is located in Section C.4; however, the certification appears in Section C.7. Please confirm that offerors are required to complete, sign, and submit the certification in Section C.7.
A. This solicitation is revised to correct the instructions to offerors. The LOS Certificate is in C.7, not C.4. Vendors are required to complete, sign and submit with their RFQ response.
Q. The SF 1449 instructions direct offerors to complete Sections B.1, B.2, C.4, E.7, and E.9. The solicitation does not appear to contain Sections E.7 or E.9. Please confirm all sections, certifications, and fill-ins that must be completed and submitted with the quote.
A. The Standard Form (SF)1449, B.1, B.2, and C.7 LOS Certification must be completed and submitted with the quote.
Q. Section E.5 does not list specific evaluation factors. Please confirm the factors that will be considered during the comparative evaluation and the technical information offerors must provide to be considered for award.
A. Evaluation – Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA) The Government will award a contract resulting from this solicitation to the responsible offeror whose offer conforming to the solicitation will be most advantageous to the Government, price and other factors considered. A price evaluation in accordance with RFO 12.203(c)(2) will be conducted. The Government will determine the total evaluated price by adding the total price for all options to the total price for the basic requirement.
