About this file
This is a Notice of Intent to Sole Source, amended to correct the response deadline. The Department of Veterans Affairs, Network Contracting Office (NCO) 19, located in Greenwood Village, Colorado, intends to award a sole source procurement to Agilent Technologies, Inc. (2850 Centerville Road, Wilmington, Delaware) for mass spectrometry maintenance services and supplies. The requirement includes five line items: three JW, VV, and MW 6465 Triple Quadrupole LC/MS Enhanced CROSSLAB SILVER maintenance contracts and two Other MVS Direct Delivery Systems CROSSLAB PASSTHROUGH SERVICES line items. The contract will be awarded under GSA Multiple Award Schedule GS-07F-0564X. The performance period consists of a base year from November 1, 2026, through October 31, 2027, with four one-year option periods extending through October 31, 2031, for a total of five years.
The Government justifies sole sourcing to Agilent based on the proprietary nature of the equipment and services. Agilent is the sole source for proprietary instrument firmware, software updates, engineering upgrades, and maintenance procedures, as third-party providers lack authorization and access to Agilent's diagnostic tools, remote support capabilities, and compliance platforms. The Product Service Code is J066 (Maintenance and Repair Services), and the NAICS Code is 811210 with a $34 million business size standard. Interested parties may demonstrate their capability to respond by the corrected deadline of 4:00 PM Mountain Standard Time on Thursday, October 22, 2026, by submitting relevant documentation to Contracting Officer Lindsey Zwaagstra at Lindsey.Zwaagstra@va.gov. The place of performance is the Rocky Mountain Regional VA Medical Center in Aurora, Colorado. This notice is not a request for competitive quotes, and the Government retains sole discretion to proceed with or withhold the sole source award.
