About this opportunity

The Department of Veterans Affairs, Veterans Integrated Service Network 17, issued a Special Notice of Intent to Sole Source on April 24, 2026, for the procurement of cardiac electrophysiology equipment exclusively from Abbott Laboratories Inc. The procurement is for the Audie L. Murphy VA Medical Center in San Antonio, Texas, and will be executed as a firm fixed price, one-time purchase contract. The justification for sole sourcing is based on FAR 6.302-1, which permits procurement from a single source when only one responsible supplier can satisfy agency requirements. This Special Notice invites other qualified vendors to submit documentation demonstrating their capability to provide equivalent products and services. The solicitation number is 36C25726Q0500, and no formal solicitation will be posted to Contract Opportunities.

The procurement includes a comprehensive suite of electrophysiology equipment, such as the EnSite W EP System, EnSite Contact Force Module, Ampere Generator Kit and Remote Control, Cool Point Irrigation Pump, three ViewMate Multi Ultrasound systems with associated transducers, and a WorkMate Claris Recording System with EP-4 Cardiac Stimulator, along with base year and two optional years of support items. Interested contractors must submit detailed documentation by May 8, 2026, at 10:00 AM Central Time to Susan Flores at Susan.Flores2@va.gov, providing evidence of their qualifications and ability to meet agency requirements. The submission must include comprehensive market research data to support the government's evaluation of alternative sources and competitive viability. While the government has indicated its intent to sole source to Abbott Laboratories, it retains sole discretion to determine whether competitive procurement is warranted based on responses received. The requirement falls under NAICS code 334510 (Electromedical and Electrotherapeutic Apparatus Manufacturing) and PSC code 6515 (Medical and Surgical Instruments, Equipment, and Supplies).
