The Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration (VA VHA) is seeking to procure a Steris SCS Conveyor System for the Brockton VA Medical Center through a solicitation that requires two SCS Load/Unload Single modules for Vision SC and AMSCO 3052/5052 washers, along with associated service and installation components. The solicitation calls for 2 two-year Total Care Connect SCS Conveyor service modules, 2 pressure release buttons, and comprehensive installation services to be performed during evening and weekend hours.

Potential contractors must follow specific installation requirements, including manufacturer-trained personnel and adherence to VA security and infection control protocols.

This contract opportunity is exclusively set aside for Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses (SDVOSB) under NAICS code 339113 with a size standard of 800 employees.
