About this opportunity
The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) Veterans Health Administration Veterans Integrated Service Network 1 is pursuing a sole-source procurement for three Tissue-Tek Lab Aid Ultra II Cabinets from Government Scientific Source Inc. at the Providence Medical Center. This one-time, firm-fixed-price contract will include accessories, installation, and program management for specialized laboratory equipment. The VA has standardized to Tissue-Tek cabinets and identifies Government Scientific Source Inc. as the sole authorized small business distributor in the United States for these products from original equipment manufacturer Sakura Finetek. The procurement falls under NAICS code 337127 with a size standard of 1000 employees and PSC code 6515. Interested parties may identify their capabilities by the response deadline of March 11, 2025, at 16:00 EDT, though no competitive solicitation will be posted.
The procurement does not have a specific set-aside designation, and the contract will be awarded directly to Government Scientific Source Inc. as the sole authorized distributor. The place of performance will be the VA Medical Center in Providence, Rhode Island. While specific award value details are not explicitly stated, the contract covers three laboratory cabinets with associated installation and management services. The procurement represents a targeted, specialized acquisition for scientific laboratory equipment that meets the VA's specific standardization requirements. The sole-source approach indicates that Government Scientific Source Inc. possesses unique qualifications or distribution rights that make them the only viable vendor for these specific laboratory instruments.
