This is a Product Description document for a VA-wide sole source procurement of physiologic pH recorders for upper gastrointestinal tract monitoring. The Department of Veterans Affairs, through its Strategic Acquisition Center, is seeking to procure the Medtronic Bravo Reflux Testing System Recorder and associated components for use across VHA medical centers and facilities. The requirement encompasses 18 contract line items (CLINs 0001-0018) including the primary Bravo CF Reflux Recorder (Medtronic FGS-0634), vacuum pumps, calibration equipment, software licenses, charging accessories, and service plans ranging from one to three years. The solicitation specifies that vendors must provide descriptive literature including FDA 510K clearance documentation and technical specifications demonstrating calibration-free pH wireless sensor technology, extended 96-hour recording capability, wearable wireless external receivers with symptom/meal/position logging functions, manufacturer-provided reflux analysis software, and comprehensive service and maintenance plans.

The procurement is structured as a sole source award with a base performance period of 12 months plus four optional 12-month renewal periods. The applicable NAICS code is 339112 (Surgical and Medical Instrument Manufacturing) with a size standard of 1,000 employees, and the PSC is 6515 (Medical and Surgical Instruments, Equipment, and Supplies). Interested parties must submit evidence of capability to meet all salient characteristics through literature review by May 28, 2026, at 5:00 PM Eastern Time to Kyle.franks@va.gov and Felicia.demita@va.gov. The government reserves the right to make a final determination on whether to proceed with sole source procurement based on responses received.
