6515--RO Transport Carts

The Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration Veterans Integrated Service Network 8, specifically the C.W. Bill Young Veterans Medical Center, is seeking to procure five portable transport carts to replace current equipment that has been deemed non-compliant by the Joint Commission. The procurement specifically requires ROVER ALX Carts (Model W3T579396) or an approved equal, with the ROVER ALX serving as the basis of design for this requirement. This procurement will be structured as an unrestricted, firm-fixed-price contract under Product Service Code 6515 (Medical And Surgical Instruments, Equipment, And Supplies) and NAICS Code 334510 (Electromedical and Electrotherapeutic Apparatus Manufacturing). The solicitation is scheduled to be posted on or around August 22, 2025, with vendor responses due by August 22, 2025, at 2:00 PM Eastern Time. Michael A. Shook, serving as the Contract Specialist at the Department of Veterans Affairs Network Contracting Office 8, can be contacted at michael.shook@va.gov for additional information regarding this procurement opportunity. The equipment will be delivered to and used at 10000 Bay Pines Blvd, Bay Pines, FL 33744.

This procurement opportunity has no set-aside designation and will be conducted as an unrestricted competition open to all eligible contractors. The contract calls for delivery of exactly five ROVER ALX transport carts, with no alternative quantities specified in the requirements. While no specific budget range or estimated contract value has been disclosed in the pre-solicitation notice, the firm-fixed-price structure indicates that vendors will be required to provide comprehensive pricing for the complete delivery of all five units. The procurement timeline appears compressed, with only a two-day window between the expected posting date and response deadline, suggesting this may be an urgent replacement requirement. No information about incumbent contractors or previous suppliers for similar equipment at this facility has been provided in the available documentation.
