About this file

This is a Special Notice announcing the Department of Veterans Affairs' intent to award a sole source firm-fixed price order to Panhandle Nuclear RX LTD for radiopharmaceutical supplies. The procurement is for 22 line items of nuclear medicine products required for patient care at the Amarillo VA Health Care System in Amarillo, Texas, including various formulations of Technetium-99m compounds, Iodine-123 capsules, Indium-111 products, Gallium Citrate, and calibration sources. The specific quantities for each item are not listed in the notice.

The contracting office is the Department of Veterans Affairs Network Contracting Office 17, located in San Antonio, Texas, with Contract Specialist Vance Farrell as the point of contact. The response deadline is March 25, 2026, at 3:00 PM Central Time. The sole source justification is based on market research identifying Panhandle Nuclear RX LTD as the only nuclear pharmacy in the Amarillo area, combined with the critical requirement that the supplier must be in close proximity due to the limited shelf-life of radiopharmaceutical products. The contractor must hold US Nuclear Regulatory Commission licensing or equivalent state licensure. If no affirmative written response challenging the sole source award is received within seven days of publication, the contract will be issued to Panhandle Nuclear RX LTD without further notice. The statutory authority cited is 41 U.S.C. 3304(a)(1), which permits sole source awards when only one responsible source can satisfy agency requirements.
