6515--605-25-2-077-0236 Patient Ceiling Lift-Nursing/Safe Patient

The Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration Veterans Integrated Service Network 22 is procuring patient ceiling lifts and related equipment for the VA Loma Linda Healthcare System in California. The solicitation seeks 3 MS2 4-function C-Stat patient ceiling lifts, 4 MS2 4-function ECS patient ceiling lifts, 7 annual preventive maintenance services, 7 patient lift spreader bars, 7 patient ceiling lift scales, and 1 ceiling lift installation service. All equipment must meet stringent specifications including 600-pound lift capacity, emergency lowering capabilities, non-porous surfaces, and comprehensive monitoring features that comply with safety codes and ISO standards. The procurement has evolved into a single-source acquisition for Arjo equipment due to compatibility requirements with existing Arjo Turntables across dialysis stations. The original quote deadline of August 28, 2025, has been extended to September 3, 2025, at 4:00 PM PST, with questions having been due by August 26, 2025.

This procurement is designated as a total set-aside for Certified Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses under NAICS code 339112 with a size standard of 1000 employees. The contract structure is firm fixed-price, though specific award values are not disclosed in the available documentation. The solicitation initially allowed for brand name or equal products but subsequent amendments clarified that only Arjo motors and equipment can be used due to the proprietary nature of the existing rail system and turntables already installed at the facility. Performance will take place at the VA Loma Linda Healthcare System located at 11201 Benton St, Loma Linda, California. The procurement includes both equipment supply and installation services, with ongoing maintenance requirements spanning multiple years for the patient lift systems.
