This document contains a combined synopsis and solicitation for commercial items from the Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration Veterans Integrated Service Network 17.

Quotes are due by 12:00PM CST on May 15, 2020 and are to be submitted via email to jesus.casiano@va.gov. The solicitation identifies the required manufacturer part number, national stock number, and technical requirements including that the gloves be latex free and meet certain ASTM standards.

The color does not matter.
Do we really need to provide literature for all of the MTRs specified in the solicitation? Some of the
MTRs (4 & 11) don't seem like they would apply considering they are for latex gloves and the solicitation specifically requests latex-free gloves.
The specifications in the SOW section D. states that needs to be latex free.
I noticed the Solicitation asks for Nitrile Gloves, Case of 1,000 gloves. I have gloves in stock that match all specs but are in cases of 3,000 (300 per box, 10 boxes per case). Please see the attached Cobalt Fit
4ml Nitrile Gloves sell sheet. Please let me know if we can Quote a product that has case size of 3,000?
The quantities per BX or CS do not matter
Hello Mr. Casiano, I understand that the deadline for question submissions just passed but I hoped you might answer this:
The solicitation outlines 12 minimum technical requirements and also identifies providing gloves from the name brand, BOSMA, as suitable. However, I looked into the BOSMA gloves identified in the solicitation and I cannot find any data that suggests that the BOSMA gloves meet all 12 technical requirements, specifically some of the ASTM standards such as ASTM D1617, ASTM D6124, and ASTM
D5712 amongst others.
I've managed to source gloves a number of nitrile, latex free disposable gloves, however I cannot confirm that they meet some of the ASTM standards just as I cannot confirm that the brand name BOSMA gloves meet those same standards. My question is if I can find a product that meets the standards of the BOSMA gloves, will they be considered? Or else can you provide any technical data on the BOSMA gloves that indicate that they do in fact meet all MTR's outlined in the solicitation?
As long as is ASTM 6978.
