This is an amendment to a previous combined solicitation that cancels Request for Quotation (RFQ) 36C26226Q1357 effective immediately, with reissuance planned at a later date. The original solicitation was issued by the Department of Veterans Affairs Network Contracting Office 22 in Long Beach, California (90815) for the procurement of a Dolphin IQ 4D MAX TCD System (Transcranial Doppler ultrasound equipment), with a small business set-aside designation and a response deadline of August 27, 2026, at 3:00 PM Pacific Time. The acquisition was structured as a firm fixed price award under FAR Part 13 for commercial items, with NAICS code 339112 and a small business size standard of 1,000 employees.

The original RFQ specified brand name or equal procurement under FAR 52.211-6, requiring vendors to provide technical specifications demonstrating how equal products meet salient characteristics or face non-responsive determination. Vendor requirements included delivery of the equipment, original equipment manufacturer (OEM) comprehensive warranty coverage from the first day of delivery, a guarantee that equipment is free of defects, an authorized distributor letter, and FOB Destination pricing terms. The point of contact for the cancelled solicitation was Contract Specialist Hanan McCullick at Hanan.Mccullick@va.gov. Potential offerors should anticipate the reissued RFQ with potentially modified terms and requirements.
