About this file

This is a Special Notice of Intent to award a sole source procurement for preventive maintenance services for laboratory equipment at the Salt Lake City VA Medical Center. The Department of Veterans Affairs, Network Contracting Office (located in Greenwood Village, Colorado) intends to award the contract to Leica Microsystems INC, a large business headquartered in Deerfield, Illinois. The solicitation number is 36C25926Q0704, with a response deadline of September 25, 2026 at 9:00 AM Mountain Time. The maintenance services cover five pieces of medical equipment: two Bond-III Processing Modules, one BOND-III REFRESH 6.0 unit, and two HistoCore PELORIS 3 110V Dual Retort units, with specific serial and equipment numbers identified for each item.

The contract encompasses a five-year period of performance from October 1, 2026 through September 30, 2031, divided into five annual renewal periods. The VA justifies the sole source award based on proprietary maintenance requirements, as the equipment manufacturer does not authorize service by technicians who have not been factory trained by Leica Microsystems. The Product Service Code is J066 (Laboratory and Scientific Equipment Services), and the NAICS Code is 811210 with a business size standard of $34 million. Interested parties may submit capability statements and relevant documentation by the response deadline to demonstrate their ability to meet the government's requirements, though this notice explicitly states it is not a request for competitive quotes and the government retains sole discretion regarding the award decision. Responses should be directed to Devin Reichert (Contracting Specialist) at Devin.Reichert@va.gov and NCO19Lab@va.gov.
