6515--600-25-3-441-0759 Volumetric Specimen Imager

The Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration Veterans Integrated Service Network 22 is seeking to procure a volumetric specimen imaging system for the VA Long Beach Healthcare System through this Request for Quote (RFQ). The solicitation requires a volumetric X-ray imaging system with true 3D imaging capabilities that can view specimen volumes from any orientation, must be PACS compatible, and requires FDA approval. The system must include a touchscreen monitor, be portable with lockable caster wheels, and support viewing of invasive lobular carcinoma at multiple margins. The evaluation will be conducted on a lowest price technically acceptable basis, with technical acceptability determined by meeting the salient characteristics outlined in the solicitation. All vendor questions and quotes must be submitted by 4:00 PM PST on August 26, 2025, providing only six days from the posting date for response preparation.

This procurement is designated as a total small business set-aside, restricting participation to qualified small business entities under NAICS code 339112 for Surgical and Medical Instrument Manufacturing. The solicitation does not specify any incumbent contractors or provide detailed budget ranges, though it indicates this will be a firm fixed price contract. No specific quantities are mentioned as this appears to be for a single volumetric specimen imaging system unit. The place of performance is the VA Long Beach Healthcare System, where the imaging equipment will be installed and utilized for medical specimen analysis. The compressed timeline suggests this is an urgent procurement requirement for the VA medical facility.
