CONTINUATION PAGE

1. Product Substitution / "Or Equal" Allowability The Statement of Work (SOW) currently specifies the Stryker Power-PRO 2 (Model 6507).

Could the Government please clarify if alternative brands/models with "equal or superior" technical specifications will be considered for award, provided they meet all functional requirements? If "or equal" products are acceptable, what specific verification documentation should be submitted alongside our technical quote? Equal products shall meet the requirements of the Statement of Work. Documentation submitted shall be as indicated by your technical expert.

2. Request for Solicitation Closing Date Extension Given the highly technical nature of the requirements and the tight timeline from the initial posting date, we respectfully request a short extension of the quotation due date. An extension of an additional five (5) to seven (7) business days would allow vendors sufficient time to secure the best pricing from supply chains and perform thorough quality assurance on the submittal documents. Solicitation quotes due date has been extended to Thursday, 16 July 2026 1:00

PM CDT

3. Historical Procurement Pricing To help ensure our financial proposal aligns with the Government's budgetary expectations, could the Contracting Office provide the contract number or the previous award price for any identical or similar transport stretchers purchased by this facility under historical contracts? The VA does not share Independent Government Estimate prices, use open source procurement data to research historical prices for similar items.
