2-Way Mobile Telesitter

The Wichita VA Medical Center, under the Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Integrated Service Network 15, is conducting a Request for Information (RFI) to identify potential sources capable of providing 2-way mobile telesitter technology equipment. This RFI is purely for market research purposes and does not constitute a formal solicitation or guarantee of future contract award. Interested vendors must submit responses by 12:00 PM CST on January 16, 2026, limited to five pages, detailing company information, capability to meet requirements, equipment availability through Federal Supply Schedule or open market sources, business size and socioeconomic status, authorized distributors, and manufacturing country. Respondents must be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM) and should email their submissions to Jessica Barton at jessica.barton1@va.gov with the RFI number 36C25526Q0138 in the subject line. The procurement will ultimately be structured as a firm, fixed-price contract, with the final solicitation type dependent on information gathered from this RFI process.

This pre-solicitation notice carries no small business set-aside designation. No incumbent contractors or current award values are identified in the RFI materials. The relevant NAICS codes are 541512 (Computer Systems Design Services with a $34 million size standard) and 334111 (Electronic Computer Manufacturing with 1250 employee size standard), with the PSC category classified as Medical and Surgical Instruments, Equipment, and Supplies (6515). All interested parties must demonstrate their capability to provide the required telesitter technology and maintain current SAM registration prior to submitting their response. The compressed timeline—with responses due within eight days of posting—indicates the government's intent to move expeditiously toward a formal solicitation once market information is obtained.
