6515--Brand Name Only - Medrad Injection System

The Department of Veterans Affairs, Network Contracting Office 08, intends to issue a brand name only solicitation for Medrad Injection Systems and related installation services for the C.W. Bill Young VA Medical Center in Bay Pines, Florida. The procurement specifically requires Medrad brand equipment including two Centargo CT Injection Systems, one Stellant FLEX system, and two Mark 7 Arterion Table Mount Systems, along with installation, training, and ongoing support services. The contractor must also provide a trade-in option for five existing injector systems currently installed at the facility, including various Medrad Provis and Stellant models with specific serial numbers. The solicitation is anticipated to be released on or around August 6, 2025, with responses due approximately seven days thereafter. All responsible sources may submit capability statements, proposals, or quotations through the SAM website, and interested parties must monitor SAM for the actual solicitation document.

This procurement is designated as a Total Small Business set-aside under NAICS code 339112 for Surgical and Medical Instrument Manufacturing. The contract involves the replacement of existing Medrad equipment, suggesting the current systems may have reached end-of-life or require upgrading to newer technology. The specific quantities include a total of five injection systems across three different Medrad product lines, indicating a comprehensive modernization of the medical center's imaging injection capabilities. The requirement for trade-in of existing equipment numbered with specific serial numbers demonstrates the VA's intent to maximize value through equipment exchange. The tight timeline between solicitation release and response deadline, approximately seven days, suggests this is a straightforward brand name procurement with established specifications and vendor relationships.
