About this opportunity

The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) Veterans Integrated Service Network 5 is conducting a sources sought notice for Endodry Cabinets at the Beckley VA Medical Center. The procurement seeks medical equipment specifically focused on Medivator Scope Drying Cabinets, designed to address end-of-life equipment replacement for the medical center's scope processing department. The primary objectives include acquiring cabinets that can completely dry endoscope channels within one hour, provide 31-day storage without microbial growth, and integrate with existing Medivator systems. Responses must be submitted by June 18, 2025, at 10:00 AM EST, with the notice emphasizing that this is a market research phase to identify potential qualified sources under NAICS code 339113. The government will use submitted responses to make appropriate acquisition decisions and potentially develop a subsequent formal solicitation.

The sources sought notice includes five specific line items: two Endodry Advanced Cabinets, two Total Care Connect Endodry units, two installation business days, nine hook-up assemblies, and three Cleanascope Advanced 6-Tray units. There are no specific set-aside designations for this procurement, indicating it is open to all qualified vendors. The cabinets are expected to provide advanced features such as barcode scanning, color touch screen displays, and double HEPA filtration to minimize Hospital Acquired Infections (HAI). While no specific award value is mentioned, the procurement focuses on high-precision medical equipment with rigorous technical specifications. The equipment requires an air supply of 58-145 psi and is designed to integrate with existing medical processing systems, suggesting a sophisticated and targeted procurement strategy for medical instrumentation.

STATEMENT OF WORK

GENERAL INFORMATION

1. Title: MEDIVATOR SCOPE DRYING CABINETS

2. Scope of work: VAMC Beckley SPS department has been affected by end of life for our Scope drying cabinet and needs to be replaced due to age and the resulting down time due to break downs. Endodry system will circulate better than HEPA filtered air through both the channels of the endoscopes as well as around the exterior of the scope ensuring it is bone dry within 1 hour.

This cabinet filters air down to .01 micron. This cabinet is the only cabinet on the market that has the validation for 100% bone dry internal channels as well as data that supports a 31-day storage time with no microbial growth. This cabinet is able to track storage times. This cabinet will utilize the same transport cassettes and hookup blocks as the Advantage Plus, thus providing superior efficiency. The hookup blocks are HLD d every single scope.

This cabinet in conjunction with the cassette system has been proven to reduce endoscope repair damages due to its hands free scope transfers. Medivator Endo Dry scope storage cabinet is part of the Medivator scope processing system we use at Beckley VAMC is compatible with our current Medivators and the New Pass-thru medivators.

Design considerations for new equipment:
