The Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration Veterans Integrated Service Network 15 is seeking to procure 16 six-drawer procedure carts for the Eastern Kansas VAMC Nursing Services Department and the St. Joseph Community Based Outpatient Clinic. The solicitation specifically requests Harloff M-Series Medium Width Carts or equivalent medical equipment, with detailed specifications including six drawers of varying sizes, wheeled casters with braking mechanism, programmable electronic lock, and specific dimensional requirements of 43.75" H x 30" W x 22" D. The procurement will be evaluated using the Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA) method, which means vendors must meet all technical specifications while offering the most competitive pricing. The solicitation (36C25525Q0406) was posted on June 5, 2025, with responses due by June 17, 2025, giving potential vendors approximately two weeks to prepare and submit their quotes. Key technical requirements include carts that are serviceable by local BioMed departments, cleanable with standard facility cleaners, and delivered fully assembled within 30 days of order placement.

The solicitation is set aside for Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses (SDVOSB), which limits competition to qualifying vendors with this specific certification. Delivery of the procedure carts will be to the Dwight D. Eisenhower VA Medical Center located in Leavenworth, Kansas, with a minimum one-year warranty required for the equipment. While specific award value is not explicitly stated, the procurement involves 16 procedure carts with comprehensive technical specifications. The contract falls under NAICS Category 337127 for Institutional Furniture Manufacturing and PSC Category 6515 for Medical and Surgical Instruments, Equipment, and Supplies. Vendors must ensure their proposed carts meet all technical requirements, including drawer configurations, locking mechanisms, and overall durability to support medical service environments.
