6515--561-24-1-3086-0023 | 36C242-24-AP-0746 electrosurgical generator FT-10 valleylab (VA-24-00030224)

This Special Notice from the Department of Veterans Affairs Network Contracting Office intends to award a firm fixed price sole source contract to VHSS for the procurement of four Valley Lab FT10 Energy Platform electrosurgical generators with carts and footswitches for the East Orange Veterans Affairs Medical Center in New Jersey. The total value of the contract is $90,854.94.

The objective of the Special Notice is to replace the patient positioning laser system used in surgery simulation for veterans at the East Orange VA facility, as the current system is end of life, end of guaranteed service, and runs on an unsupported operating system. The notice provides details on the contractor VHSS, including their address and the products to be supplied. No other contractors were deemed eligible to participate, as the required replacement is a specialized electrosurgical generator that utilizes proprietary TissueFect technology, and market research showed previous similar purchases were only from Valley Lab or its authorized distributor. The response deadline for the sole source award was December 26, 2023, with justification provided for the non-competitive procurement.
