About this file
This is Amendment 0001 to RFQ 36C25626Q1157, issued by the Department of Veterans Affairs Gulf Coast Veterans Health Care System Network Contracting Office 16 in Biloxi, Mississippi. The amendment extends the offer receipt deadline to September 9, 2026, at 12:00 p.m. CDT and provides responses to four questions submitted by potential offerors.
The procurement seeks a turnkey installation of one Getinge 9125E Cart Washer-Disinfector, including demolition and disposal of the existing equipment, installation, setup, calibration, and testing with facings. The equipment must be fully compatible with the existing Getinge Chemical Dosing Management System. The contract includes ten contract line items (CLINs 0001–0010): the main washer unit (CLIN 0001), an 80kVA transformer for electric heat (CLIN 0002), an Instrument Wash Cart 1300 (CLIN 0003), and installation-related services including infection control mobilization, receiving and unloading, forklift support, installation labor, custom trim work up to 30 linear feet, final plumbing connections, and turnkey installation completion (CLINs 0004–0010). The requirement is set aside for certified Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses (SDVOSBs) under NAICS 339113. The period of performance runs from September 30, 2026, to December 31, 2026, and equipment must be delivered to Building 26, 400 Veterans Avenue, Biloxi, MS 39531, during warehouse receiving hours of Monday–Friday, 7:00 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. The amendment confirms that an SBA Class Waiver applies, permitting nonmanufacturer offerors to supply the product of Getinge Disinfection AB (Växjö, Sweden), and schedules a site visit for September 2, 2026, at 9:00 a.m. The Government will consider extended delivery periods beyond the original 30-day requirement due to manufacturer lead time.

Questions to RFQ 36C25626Q1157
1. Equipment configuration - governing document. The Statement of Work at B.2 and CLIN 0001 identify the equipment as a "Getinge 9100 Cart Washer" and include "Single door with horizontal door rail" among the required features. Attachment A is titled "Salient Characteristics Getinge 9125E Cart Washer-Disinfector" and specifies "480V, Double Door, Inclined, Right Hand, Pit Mounted, Performance Dryer." These differ in model, chamber size, door configuration, mounting, and drying system. In addition, Attachment A specifies a Utility Connect Kit for Steam, indicating a steam-heated unit, while CLIN 0002 is an 80kVA transformer for Electric Heat; per the Getinge product specification at Attachment C, page 27, steam and electric heating are mutually exclusive selections.
Please confirm the model, door configuration, mounting method, drying system, and heat source the Government requires, and please confirm whether Attachment A or the Section B.2 Statement of Work governs where the two conflict. Please also confirm whether CLIN 0002 remains in scope if a steam-heated unit is selected.
To resolve these discrepancies, the Statement of Work has been revised to reflect both the Getinge 9100E Series and Getinge 9125E Cart Washer. CLIN 0001 now specifies the Getinge 9125E Cart Washer.
Per Attachment A, the actual unit requested by the VA is the Getinge 9125E Cart Washer- Disinfector, all-electric (no steam), with the following features:
• Washer Disinfector 9125E
• Inclined door, pass-through configuration
• Performance dryer
• Electrical heated (380-400V)
• Deionized water DIW valve
• Water docking for wash carts
• Booster tank
• Process tank
• Detergent pump 3,4
• Flowmeter pump 1, 2, 3, 4
• Drain cooling / USB storage
• Air conditioning in electrical enclosure
• Installation kit CW+HW+DIW, electric heat
• Transformer, 480V/400V, 80KVA
Disregard Attachment B from the original solicitation. The governing document for the required configuration is Attachment A.
CLIN 0002 remains in scope for the electric-heated unit as specified. NOTE: This is new equipment that needs to be installed.
Questions to RFQ 36C25626Q1157 (cont’d)
2. Nonmanufacturer Rule. This requirement is set aside for certified SDVOSBs under NAICS 339113 and incorporates FAR 52.219-33, Nonmanufacturer Rule (Deviation), and VAAR 852.219-76. The requirement is brand name only, and Attachment C identifies the legal manufacturer as Getinge Disinfection AB, Vaxjo, Sweden, which is neither a small business nor a domestic manufacturer. VAAR 852.219-76(a)(1)(ii) requires a nonmanufacturer to supply the product of a domestic small business manufacturer unless a waiver under 13 CFR 121.406(b)(5) has been granted.
Please confirm whether an SBA class waiver applies to this acquisition, or whether the Contracting Officer intends to seek an individual waiver.
The Government confirms that an SBA Class Waiver applies to the end item identified in this requirement. Accordingly, offerors qualifying as nonmanufacturers under FAR 52.219-33 and VAAR 852.219-76 are not required to supply the product of a domestic small business manufacturer for this procurement. The legal manufacturer for the brand-name product, Getinge Disinfection AB (Växjö, Sweden), is therefore permissible under the existing class waiver and may be quoted without the need for an individual waiver under 13 CFR 121.406(b)(5).
3. Site data and delivery schedule. The Statement of Work at B.2, paragraph 4, requires coordination with Biomed, Engineers, and Facility Management and compliance with electrical, utility, and infection control requirements. Attachment A further states the replacement unit must fit the existing 9100 pit "without any modifications to the existing walls and or size of the existing pit." No pit dimensions, utility rough-in locations, drawings, or rigging access information have been furnished, and the solicitation contains no site visit provision. CLIN 0009 conditions final connections on incoming lines and drains being within 5 linear feet of the equipment, and CLIN 0008 caps custom trim at 30 linear feet; both are measured quantities.
Please advise whether the Government will schedule a site visit or virtual walkthrough prior to the quote due date or release the above site data by amendment. If neither is available, please confirm whether offerors may price CLINs 0004 through 0010 against a stated assumption set, and whether the Government will accept a quote conditioned on a post-award site survey.
The Government has scheduled a site visit for Wednesday, September 2, 2026, at 9:00 a.m., at the Biloxi, MS campus, 400 Veterans Avenue, Building 3, Room 3D110 (across from the lab).
Points of contact are Joseph Knause (228-523-4939) and Audrey Smith (228-523-5566). Please send a courtesy email to rene.impey@va.gov by 2:00 p.m. Tuesday, September 1, 2026, if you plan to attend.
4. Relatedly, the Statement of Work requires delivery of all equipment within 30 days of contract award. Manufacturer lead time for a configured, pit-mounted 9100-series unit with the options identified in Attachment A is expected to exceed 30 days. Please confirm whether the 30-day period applies to equipment delivery or to completion of the turn-key installation within the 12/31/2026 period of performance, and whether the Government will consider an extended delivery period.
Although the original Statement of Work required delivery of all equipment within 30 days of contract award, manufacturer lead time for a configured, pit-mounted 9100-series unit with the options identified in Attachment A is expected to exceed 30 days. The VA, as the end user, will consider an extended delivery period, as the dates listed in the original package were from earlier this year and it is understood that additional delivery time may be required.
