About this opportunity
The Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration Veterans Integrated Service Network 8 is procuring a CARTO 3 System for the C.W. Bill Young Veterans Medical Center in Bay Pines, Florida, through a sources sought notice with intent to sole source. The procurement includes the CARTO 3 System Base Package and Clinical Module Package along with multiple associated software modules (ConfiDense, CartoReplay, PASO, Ripple, VISITAG Surpoint, Fam DX, CARTO PRIME, CARTO LAM, CARTO ELEVATE, CARTSOUND FAM, and SPU), a CARTO 3 Workstation Cart, a dual monitor arm, and an nGEN System SuperKit. The contracting officer has determined that sole source award is appropriate due to the technical and proprietary nature of the equipment, which can only be provided by the original equipment manufacturer or authorized representatives. Interested vendors must submit a capability statement and letter of supply/distribution to demonstrate their ability to provide the required products. The government's evaluation will consider price reasonableness based on market research conducted during the pre-solicitation process, with no obligation to award to small businesses if best value is determined to lie with other vendors. Responses must be submitted by February 26, 2026 at 2:00 PM Eastern Time.
This procurement carries no set-aside designations for small businesses or other preferred categories. No specific incumbent contractor or award value has been disclosed in the pre-solicitation notice. The government previously issued a sources sought on February 5, 2026, which generated limited qualified responses, prompting this follow-up sources sought notice. Contractors must provide service and operator manuals in both electronic and physical formats (two copies each) and ensure manufacturer's warranty coverage for all parts and labor for the agreed-upon period. The solicitation number is 36C24826Q0324, and all inquiries should be directed to contracting officer Michael A. Shook.

This requirement is considered for a sole source award by the contracting officer due to the technical and proprietary nature of the equipment and supporting software that can only be provided by the OEM and/or their authorized representatives. A sources sought was sent out on 2/5/2026 for all small business venders to state if they could provide the equipment and supporting software required to meet this requirement, only one of the few responses that were received for this sources sought provided the information required in accordance with the sources sought.
Another consideration for any contract award is price reasonableness which the contracting officer has to make a determination based upon any available pricing information that was discovered during the market research stage of the pre-solicitation process. The contracting officer is under no obligation to award to any small business regardless of their socioeconomic status if the contracting officer based upon market research has determined that the best value to the government would be to award to other than a small business.
Please direct any reply if you are interested and can provide the required product/service for this requirement. Please provide your capability statement, letter of supply/ distribution. I will accept responses for this Sources Sought until the 26th of February 2026 14:00, thanks.
