About this file

This is Amendment 0001 to Solicitation 36C26326Q0928 issued by the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) Black Hills Health Care System, Fort Meade, South Dakota. The amendment addresses vendor questions and clarifies requirements for a mobile CT scanner lease contract with a base period of performance from August 3, 2026, through December 2, 2026, for delivery to Iowa City VA Health Care System in Iowa City, Iowa. The amendment revises the pricing schedule from weekly to monthly invoicing for CLINs 0001, 0002, 0003, 0005, and 0006 and changes CLIN 0004 from monthly to job-based pricing. One-time services including delivery, setup, return, applications training, cleaning, and hard drive replacement shall be priced as fixed-price items and invoiced upon satisfactory completion.

The solicitation requires offerors to lease a 128-slice mobile CT scanner system and provide three days of onsite applications training. Offerors must submit a completed Task Breakdown Worksheet identifying work performed by the prime contractor versus subcontractors to demonstrate compliance with Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) limitations on subcontracting requirements. The amendment removes the requirement to submit a sample report and adds site plan and utility drawings for offeror reference. All six contract line items (CLINs) have a quantity of four months except CLIN 0004 (applications training), which is priced for three days. The quotation due date remains July 24, 2026, at 1700 Mountain Time, and all solicitation amendments must be signed and returned with the quote. Offerors proposing equipment equivalent to the specified Siemens system must clearly demonstrate that the proposed system meets or exceeds all identified salient characteristics.

Mobile CT Scanner Lease – Vendor Questions

1. Pricing Schedule

Question:

The pricing schedule lists all six CLINs as a quantity of four months, including delivery, return, applications training, cleaning, and hard-drive replacement. Please confirm how offerors should price these one-time items and whether the Government intends to revise the quantities and units Response:

With this amendment, the pricing schedule is revised to clarify that the monthly lease payment shall be invoiced on a monthly basis rather than weekly. One-time CLINs (delivery, setup, return, applications training, cleaning, and hard drive replacement/removal) shall be priced as one-time fixed-price items and invoiced upon satisfactory completion of each applicable service. The pricing schedule included with this amendment reflects these revisions.

2. Rental Pricing Basis

Question:

CLIN 0001 is described as “Mobile CT Weekly Rental,” but the quantity is listed as four months. Should offerors provide a monthly rental rate or a weekly rental rate?

Response:

See the revised pricing schedule included with this amendment and the response to Question No. 1. The pricing schedule has been revised to reflect monthly invoicing for the lease period rather than weekly invoicing.

3. Applications Training

Question:

The SOW requires three days of onsite applications training, while CLIN 0004 lists a quantity of four months. Please confirm the correct pricing basis for this CLIN.

Response:

The contractor shall provide three (3) days of onsite applications training as required by the Statement of Work. Offerors shall provide one fixed price for the required three-day training event. CLIN 0004 is now amended to reflect this change.

4. Required Operational Date

Question:

Please confirm whether the mobile CT must be delivered, installed, tested, and fully operational by August 3, 2026, or whether August 3 begins the mobilization and setup period.

Response:

The contract period of performance will begin on August 3, 2026, as identified in the solicitation. At this time, the Government's CT replacement project schedule is still being finalized; therefore, the exact delivery, installation, testing, and onsite applications training dates cannot yet be committed. The successful contractor should anticipate that delivery and setup may be required at the start of the period of performance or shortly after the start of the contract period. The Government will coordinate the final schedule with the successful contractor once the installation timeline has been finalized.

5. Site-Planning Timeline

Question:

The SOW requires site-planning and utility information at least 14 calendar days before delivery. Since quotes are due July 24, please clarify how the awarded contractor is expected to satisfy this requirement.

Response:

At this time, the Government's CT replacement project schedule is still being finalized; therefore, the exact site-planning timeline cannot yet be committed. The Government will coordinate the final site-planning activities, utility coordination, trailer placement, and delivery schedule with the successful contractor once the Government's CT replacement project schedule has been finalized. The contractor will receive the necessary site-planning information to support a successful installation.

6. Site and Utility Information

Question:

Please provide any available site drawings, photographs, trailer-placement information, and utility requirements, including electrical service, pad dimensions, network/PACS connection points, and whether stairs or ADA access are already available.

Response:

The Government has provided available site plans, utility drawings, and location information as part of this amendment. Additional site-specific coordination will occur after award.

7. Equipment Equivalency

Question:

Several salient characteristics reference Siemens-specific features and software. Will the Government accept an equivalent 128-slice CT system that meets or exceeds the required clinical functionality, or is a Siemens-configured system required?

Response:

The Government will evaluate quotations in accordance with the solicitation. Offerors proposing an equal product must clearly demonstrate that the proposed system meets or exceeds every salient characteristic identified in the Statement of Work.

8. Limitations on Subcontracting

Question:

The solicitation requires certification under the services limitation on subcontracting. Please confirm whether the Government’s interpretation is that the SDVOSB prime’s receipt of payment from the Government satisfies the 50% requirement, or whether compliance will be measured based on the amount paid by the prime to non-similarly situated subcontractors.

Response:

Compliance with the limitations on subcontracting will be evaluated in accordance with the applicable SBA regulations governing service contracts. With this amendment, a Task Breakdown Worksheet is being added to the solicitation. Offerors shall complete and submit the worksheet with their quotation, identifying the work to be performed by the prime contractor and any subcontractors. The completed worksheet will be evaluated by the Government as part of its assessment of the offeror's compliance with the limitations on subcontracting requirements.

9. Sample Report Requirement

Question:

The evaluation criteria request a “sample report similar in scope and complexity.” Please clarify what type of report the Government expects offerors to submit.

Response:

The Government has determined that a sample report is not required for evaluation and will remove this requirement by amendment if it remains in the solicitation.
